Ink Blots / Paper Curl

Ink Blots

Paper Curl

Check1

Check paper and print quality settings.

Print Results Are Unsatisfactory

Check2

If intensity is set high, reduce intensity setting and try printing again. (Windows)

If you are printing with a high intensity setting on plain paper, the paper may absorb too much ink and become
wavy, causing paper abrasion.

Check the intensity setting in the printer driver.

Adjusting Intensity

Check3

Use Photo Paper to print photos.

To print data with high color saturation such as photographs or images with dark colors, we recommend that you
use Photo Paper Plus Glossy II or other Canon specialty paper.
