Prints are Scuffed or Smeared

If your prints are scuffed or smeared, try these solutions:

• Make sure your paper meets the specifications for your product.

• Do not use paper with folds or creases and always use new media.

• If you are using cut sheet paper, check that changes in humidity and temperature have not made the

paper wavy. Flatten the paper before loading it or use new paper.

• If the surface of the paper is scuffed, select a wider Platen Gap setting.

• If the bottom edge is scuffed, try widening the bottom margin.

• If ink is smeared on your prints, clean the rollers. Load blank paper and press the paper feed button

to feed it through the printer.
