Faint Printout or Printout Has Gaps

If your printouts are faint or have gaps, try these solutions:

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

necessary.

• The ink cartridges may be old or low on ink, and you may need to replace them.

• Make sure the paper type setting matches the type of paper you loaded.

• Make sure your paper is not damp, curled, old, or loaded incorrectly in your product.

• Align the print head.

• Adjust the print quality in the product software.

• Clean the paper path.
