Fading occurs on the edges of a printout

Verify that photo paper is not curled. If the photo paper is curled, place the paper in a plastic bag and gently bend it in the opposite direction of the curl until the paper lies flat. If the problem persists, then use photo paper that is not curled.

For instructions about preventing photo paper from curling, see Storing and handling photo paper.

Fading occurs near the edges of a photo

If fading occurs approximately 25 to 63 mm (1.0 to 2.5 inches) from the edge of a photo, try the following solutions:

●Install a photo print cartridge in the printer.

●Open the Printer Properties dialog box, click the Paper/Quality tab, and then set the Print quality to Maximum dpi.

●Rotate the image 180°.
