Grainy Printout

If your printouts are grainy, try these solutions:

• Make sure you loaded the printable side of the paper correctly for your product.

• Select a higher print quality setting and turn off any high speed settings in your product software.

• Run a nozzle check to see if any of the print head nozzles are clogged. Then clean the print head, if

necessary.

• Align the print head.

• You may need to increase the image resolution or print a smaller size; see your software

documentation.

Note:

Images from the Internet may be low resolution and not result in a high quality printout.

• If you enlarged the image in an image-editing program, you need to increase the resolution setting to

retain a high image quality. Increase the resolution by the same amount you increased the image size.
