Faint Printout or Printout Has Gaps

If your printouts are faint or have gaps, try these solutions:
• Clean the print head.
• The ink cartridges may be old or low on ink, and you may need to replace them.
• Make sure the paper type setting matches the type of paper you loaded.
• Make sure your paper is not damp, curled, old, or loaded faceup in the cassette (the printable side
should be facedown).
• Clean the paper path.
