contain ink stains. Clean the machine (p. 11-1).
7. Are you printing on the wrong side of the paper?
Some papers have a “right” side for printing.Turn the paper over and try printing again. There are
also types of paper such as Photo Paper Pro that can only be printed on one side.

deteriorate or the printout may be stained. If the printout is dirty even on recommended print
media, move the paper thickness lever to the right (p. 3-5).
