Image Edges Are Blurred Or White Banding Occurs; The Contrast Becomes Uneven During Printing - Canon imagePROGRAF iPF760 User Manual

iPF760
Cause
When borderless printing is used, the edge
of the paper is cut during printing. Thus, ink
density may be slightly uneven at the lead-
ing edges.
The Printhead is out of alignment.
Allowing printed documents to dry on top of
each other may cause uneven colors.
Density may be uneven if you use Glossy
Paper or Coated Paper.
The type of paper specified in the printer
driver does not match the type loaded in the
printer.
Scan Wait Time > Area in the Control Panel
menu is set to Leading edge.

er.

User's Guide
Specify No in Auto Cut in the printer driver before printing. In this case, the paper can be prin-
ted without borders on the left and right sides only. Cut the printed document ejected from the
printer, and then use scissors or a cutting tool to cut away the edges on the top and bottom.
Choose a higher level of Print Quality in the Advanced Settings of the printer driver.
(See "Giving Priority to Particular Graphic Elements and Colors for Printing.")
Adjust the Printhead alignment.
(See "Automatic Adjustment to Straighten Lines and Colors (Head Posi. Adj.).")
To avoid uneven colors, we recommend drying each sheet separately.
In Advanced Settings of the printer driver, choose Highest or High in Print Quality.
Load paper of the same type as you have specified in the printer driver.
(See "Loading Rolls in the Printer.")
(See "Loading Sheets in the Printer.")
Make sure the same type of paper is specified in the printer driver as you have loaded in the
printer.
1.
Press the Stop button and stop printing.
2.
Change the type of paper in the printer driver and try printing again.
When Scan Wait Time > Area is set to Leading edge, colors may be uneven 110–140 mm
from the leading edge. (The position varies depending on the Print Quality setting.)
In this case, select Scan Wait Time > Area > Entire area.
However, note that printing will now take longer.
