Problem Solving
Some parts of your print are not as
glossy as others.
Because of the nature of pigment inks,
the degree of gloss may be uneven on
glossy photo papers. Surface gloss
decreases with greater pigment
saturation.
Paper Problems
Paper doesn’t eject fully or is
wrinkled.
■
If the paper doesn’t eject fully, you
may have set the wrong paper size.
Press the
)
paper button to eject
the paper, then select the correct
paper size in your application or
printer software.
■
If it’s wrinkled when it ejects, the
paper may be damp or too thin.
Paper doesn’t feed correctly or jams
in the printer.
■
If paper doesn’t feed correctly,
remove it from the sheet feeder.
Fan the edges of the sheets, reload
them against the right edge, then
slide the left edge guide to fit lightly
against the paper.
■
If paper jams, press the
)
paper
button for several seconds to clear
the jam. If that doesn’t work, turn
off the printer and gently pull the
paper forward (toward the output
tray) to pull it out. Reload the
paper and press the
m
paper button
to resume printing.
If your paper jams frequently:
■
Use new, smooth, high-quality
paper, loaded printable side up.
■
Don’t load paper above the arrow
mark on the left edge guide.
■
If you’re printing on both sides of
the paper, try loading fewer sheets.
■
Place the paper against the right
edge and slide the left edge guide
against it, but not too tightly.
