Paper mismatch

Solution: Change the print setting or load the appropriate paper in the input tray.

•Do not use paper that is too thin, that has a slick texture, or that stretches easily. It can feed incorrectly through the paper path, causing paper jams.

•Store photo media in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a flat surface in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag.

•Always hold photo paper by the edges. Fingerprints on photo paper can reduce print quality.

•Do not use paper that is heavily textured. It can cause graphics or text to print improperly.

•Do not combine different paper types and paper sizes in the input tray; the entire stack of paper in the input tray must be the same size and type.

•Store printed photos under glass or in a storage book to prevent bleeding over time from high humidity.

Cause: The print setting for the print job did not match the paper type or size loaded in the product.
