Check to see if the photo paper is dirty, and use a dry, lint-free cloth to wipe clean. For excessive dirt or
debris, thoroughly clean the paper tray, and load new photo paper (page 15).
NOTE:
When storing photo paper, remove and close the paper tray and close the paper tray door on
the printer. These steps keep dust and debris from collecting on the photo paper or inside the printer.
