Troubleshooting

Colors in printed images are 
uneven

Color may be uneven between 
dark and light image areas.

Density may be uneven if you use 
 Glossy Paper

  

  or  Coated Paper

  

 .

When borderless printing is used, 
the edge of the paper is cut during 
printing. Thus, ink density may be 
slightly uneven at the edges.

The  Printhead

  

  is out of alignment.

Allowing printed documents to dry 
on top of each other may cause 
uneven colors.

Select  

Unidirectional Printing  

  in the  

Advanced 

Settings  

  of the printer driver.

In  

Advanced Settings  

  of the printer driver, choose 

 

Highest quality  

  or  

High  

  in  

Print Quality  

 .

Specify  

No  

  in  

Auto Cut  

  in the printer driver before 

printing. In this case, the paper can be printed without 
borders on the left and right sides only. Cut the printed 
document ejected from the printer, and then use 
scissors or a cutting tool to cut away the edges on the 
top and bottom.

Adjust the  Printhead

  

  alignment.

Choose a higher level of  

Print Quality  

  in the 

 

Advanced Settings  

  of the printer driver.

To avoid uneven colors, we recommend drying each 
sheet separately.

Colors may be uneven at the

execute  

Adj Far Ed Feed  

 .

For heavyweight sheets or similar paper, execute  

Adj 

Far Ed Feed  

  with the

  raised. Also 

keep the  

Front Tray Guides  

  raised during printing.

Lower the

When you load paper in the

  and print, colors 

may be uneven at the leading 
edge of the paper.

Choose a higher level of  

Print Quality  

  in the 

 

Advanced Settings  

  of the printer driver.

Printing in  

Fast  

  or  

Standard  

  mode is faster and 

consumes less ink than in  

Highest quality  

  or  

High  

  

modes, but the printing quality is lower.

Straighten the paper if it is warped, and then load it 
straight into the printer.
