Image Problems
Basic Check Points and Specifications
Work environment Is there a problem at the printer location?
• Make sure that the printer is level. Place the printer in a location
where it will not be subject to shaking or excessive force.
• Make sure the temperature and humidity are within the acceptable
ranges:
Temperature: 10° C to 32°C (50°F to 89.6°F)
Humidity: 15% to 80% rH
Ink cartridge Is an old print cartridge being used?
• Print cartridges should be opened before their expiration date and
used within six months of being opened. Use new cartridge.
• To replace all ink inside the print head tank, perform print head
flushing 4 times.
Is a genuine print cartridge being used?
• Using a cartridge other than a genuine print cartridge or using a
cartridge refilled with ink will lower the print quality and could cause
a breakdown.
• Always use a genuine print cartridge.
Paper Printing on the wrong side of the paper?
• Check which side should be printed on when using inkjet plain paper.
• If you print on the wrong side, the quality of the printing may be
lower and the inside of the printer may get dirty.
Are you using damp paper?
• Paper can absorb moisture in a humid environment.
• Damp paper tends to curl more. This can interfere with paper
transport inside the printer and result in poor image quality.
Is the paper too thick or too thin?
