Review steps to improve print quality See "Improving print quality" on page 100. Remove sheets as they are printed To avoid ink smudging when you are working with the following media, remove each sheet as it exits, and allow it to dry: • Documents with graphics or images • Photo paper • Heavyweight matte or glossy paper • Transparencies • Labels • Envelopes • Iron-on transfers Note: Transparencies may take up to 15 minutes to dry. Use a different brand of paper Each paper brand accepts ink differently and prints with color variations. If you are printing photos or other high-quality images, for best results use Lexmark PerfectFinish Photo Paper or Lexmark Photo Paper. Do not use Lexmark Premium Photo Paper. Your print cartridges are not compatible with this type of paper. Check paper condition Use only new, unwrinkled paper. Removing and reinstalling the software Software may not be installed correctly.
