Suggestions
Make sure the paper is loaded properly in the paper tray and the paper side guide
is adjusted correctly. (See Loading paper, envelopes and other
media on page 14.)
Make sure the Jam Clear Cover is set properly.
Make sure the paper is not too thick or curled. (See Acceptable paper and other
media on page 10.)
Make sure you are using the correct types of paper. (See Acceptable paper and
other media on page 10.) Don't handle the paper until the ink is dry.
Make sure the printer platen is not dirty with ink. (See Cleaning the machine printer
platen on page 122.)
Make sure you are using the paper support flap. (See Loading paper, envelopes
and other media on page 14.)
Check Reverse Order in the Basic tab of the printer driver.
In the printer driver Basic tab, click the Settings, and uncheck the
Bi-Directional Printing.
Check that the paper size setting in the application and in the printer driver are the
same.
Try changing the printer driver setting. The highest resolution needs longer data
processing, sending and printing time. Try the other quality settings in the printer
driver Basic tab. Also, click the Settings tab, and make sure you uncheck
Colour Enhancement.
Turn the borderless feature off. Borderless printing is slower than normal printing.
