My printout is grainy when I print from any application. What should I do?

  • Check the following:
    • Make sure the printable side of the paper is face down. It's usually brighter or whiter.
    • Select a higher Quality Option or Print Quality (do not select Fast Economy or Economy), and turn off High Speed in the printer software (Windows only).
    • Align the print head.
    • You may need to increase the image resolution or print in a smaller size; see your software documentation.
