Check if all the ink tanks are installed properly and try printing the Nozzle Check Pattern again. If the pattern is not correct, try cleaning or deep cleaning the printhead. In case the issue persists, then you need to replace the printhead.

I hope this is helpful? PLEASE "ACCEPT" and mark it "HELPFUL" to complement my little effort. Hope to bring you more detailed answers
