Color documents print in black and white

The printed image is blurry or smeared

Possible cause

Solution

Your printer is not
selected in your
application.

Select your printer and port in your software application.

Color printing is not
selected.

Select color printing in your application and the printer software.

Possible cause

Solution

The loaded paper is
damaged, old, or dirty.

Remove the paper and reload a new stack with the printable side face
up. See

Media Loading and Handling Guidelines

for instructions.

The printer’s thickness
lever is in the wrong
position.

Set the thickness lever to the 0 position for most papers. Set it to the +
position for thicker paper and envelopes.

The paper is damp or
the printable side is
face down.

Remove the paper and reload a new stack with the printable side face
up. See

Media Loading and Handling Guidelines

for instructions.

You loaded special
media without a
support sheet.

Follow the special media loading instructions in

Selecting Special Media

and on the paper packaging for media that require support sheets. Also
try loading your media one sheet at a time.

You tried to print on
cardboard or other
non-recommended
media.

Make sure your paper or media meets the specifications listed in

Paper

If your printouts are still blurry after you change paper, clean the print
heads as described in
