Problems with the Printing Quality

Phenomenon

Printing is faint

You may be printing on the wrong

side of the paper.

During borderless printing, the ink

was not dry enough before cutting.

The Printhead nozzles are

clogged.

Because the printer was left

without ink tanks installed for some

time, ink has become clogged in

the ink supply system.

Paper is jammed inside the Top

Cover.

Printing may be faint if Print

Quality in Advanced Settings

in the printer driver is set to

Standard or Draft.

Print on the printing surface.

Remove any scraps of paper inside the Top Cover.

Close the Top Cover.

Specify a longer drying period in the printer menu, in

Roll DryingTime in Paper Details.

Print a test pattern to check the nozzles and see if

they are clogged.

After the ink tanks have been installed for 24 hours,

run Head Cleaning B.

Follow the steps below to remove the jammed piece

of paper inside the Top Cover.

Press the Online button to bring the printer offline.

Open the Top Cover and make sure the Carriage

is not over the Platen.

In Advanced Settings of the printer driver, choose

Highest or High in Print Quality.

Troubleshooting

Phenomenon Cause Corrective Action

Paper rubs against the printhead

The type of paper specified in the

printer driver does not match the

type loaded in the printer.

The Printhead is set too low.

When printing on CAD Tracing Paper or other film-

based media, choose a VacuumStrngth setting of

Standard, Strong, or Strongest. If paper still rubs

against the printhead, try raising the Printhead by

setting Head Height to Highest.

When printing on Heavyweight Coated Paper or

other paper-based media, choose a VacuumStrngth

setting of Strong or Strongest. If paper still rubs

against the printhead, try raising the Printhead by

setting Head Height to Highest.

When printing on paper 0.1 mm (0.004 in) thin

or thinner, choose a VacuumStrngth setting of

Weakest. If paper still rubs against the printhead,

try raising the Printhead by setting Head Height to

Highest.

Troubleshooting

Colors in printed images are

uneven

Line Drawing/Text is selected

when printing 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.

Color density may be uneven if

you use Glossy Paper, art paper,

or Coated Paper.

When borderless printing is used,

the edge of the paper is cut during

printing. Thus, ink density may be

slightly uneven at the edges.

The Printhead is out of alignment.

Drying documents stacked on

each other may cause uneven

colors.

Specify Image in the printer driver.

Printed colors may appear uneven on the leading

edge of paper that is susceptible to curling. Increase

the level of suction holding the paper against the

Platen or specify a margin of 20 mm (0.79 in.) or

more for the leading edge.

Choose a higher level of Print Quality in the

Advanced Settings of the printer driver.

Select Unidirectional Printing in the Advanced

Settings of the printer driver.

In Advanced Settings of the printer driver, choose

Highest or High in Print Quality.

Specify No in Auto Cut in the printer driver before

printing. In this case, the paper can be printed without

borders on the left and right sides only. Cut the printed

document ejected from the printer, then use scissors

to cut away the edges on the top and bottom.

Adjust the Printhead alignment.

Choose a higher level of Print Quality in the

Advanced Settings of the printer driver.

To avoid uneven colors, we recommend drying each

sheet separately.
