o
Did you select a low quality mode (such as
Speed) as the Print Quality?
The print quality may decline when you select
Speed
for
Print Quality
or make
Quality Options
settings that assign priority to speed from the
printer driver. If you want to improve your print
quality, select a setting that assigns priority to quality.
o
Is color management enabled?
Enable color management.
U
“Color Management Printing” on page 98
o
Have you compared the printing result with
the image on the display monitor?
Since monitors and printers produce colors
differently, printed colors will not always match
on-screen colors perfectly.
o
Did you open the printer cover while
printing?
If the printer cover is opened while printing, the
print head stops suddenly causing unevenness in
the color. Do not open the printer cover while
printing.
o
Is Ink Low displayed in the control panel?
The print quality may decline when the ink is low.
We recommend replacing the ink cartridge with a
new one. If there is a difference in color after
replacing the ink cartridge, try performing head
cleaning a few times.

Are you doing Hiigh Speed on commercially
available paper?
If you have selected Custom Paper from

The color is not exactly the same as
another printer.
o
Colors vary depending on the printer type
due to each printer's characteristics.
Because inks, printer drivers, and printer profiles are
developed for each printer model, the colors
printed by different printer models are not exactly
the same.
You can achieve similar colors with the same color
adjustment method or the same gamma setting by
using the printer driver.
U
“Color Management Printing” on page 98
To match the color precisely, use the color
measurement device to perform color management.
The print is not positioned properly
on the media.
o
Have you specified the print area?
Check the print area in the settings of the
application and the printer.
o
Is the correct option selected for Page Size?
If the option selected for
Page Size
or
Paper Size
in
the printer driver does not match the paper loaded
in the printer, the print may not be in the correct
position or some of the data may be printed off the
paper. In this case, check the print settings.
o
Is the paper skewed?
If
Off
is selected for
Paper Skew Check
in the
Printer Setup menu, printing will continue even if
the paper is skewed, resulting in data being printed
off the paper. Set
On
for
Paper Skew Check
in the
Printer Setup menu.
U
o
Does the print data fit within the paper
width?
Although under normal circumstances printing
stops if the print image is wider than the paper, the
printer may print outside the bounds of the paper
when
Off
is selected for
Paper Size Check
in the
Printer Setup menu. Change the setting to
On
