ing images in many solid colors.
You are printing on paper that curls easily.
Printed colors may be uneven if you set
the Print Quality too low.
Color may be uneven between dark and
light image areas.
When borderless printing is used, the edge
of the paper is cut during printing. Thus,
ink density may be slightly uneven at the
leading 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.
