Print Results Not Satisfactory

If the print result is not satisfactory due to white streaks, misaligned lines, or uneven colors, confirm the
paper and print quality settings first.
Check 1: Do the page size and media type settings match the size and
type of the loaded paper?
When these settings are incorrect, you cannot obtain a proper print result.
If you are printing a photograph or an illustration, incorrect paper type settings may reduce the quality
of the printout color.
Also, if you print with an incorrect paper type setting, the printed surface may be scratched.
In borderless printing, uneven coloring may occur depending on the combination of the paper type
setting and the loaded paper.
The method of confirming the paper and print quality settings differs depending on what you do with
your printer.
To print from a PictBridge compliant
device
To print from a computer
Check 2: Make sure that the appropriate print quality is selected
referring to the table in Check 1.
Select a print quality option suitable for the paper and image for printing. If you notice blurs or uneven
colors, increase the print quality setting and try printing again.
Note
You cannot change the print quality setting from a PictBridge compliant device.
Check 3: If the problem is not resolved, there may be other causes.
