Print quality is poor (uneven, too light, or too dark)
Check that the mode does not favor speed over print quality.
Set the quality to Quality or Max Quality to favor quality.
If High Speed is on, turn it off.
Check that paper type is set correctly.
If the paper type settings in the printer driver are different from the paper actually loaded, the printer
cannot control the amount of ink used properly. This will cause the ink to run and tones will not be
smooth, resulting in poor print quality. In addition, if you use non-genuine paper, the same problems
may arise.
Check that the head is not clogged. Perform a nozzle check and if necessary perform head cleaning.
