Enable the printer's output ramp
When printing in Fast Normal (default) print mode, the printer does not use the output ramp to hold each printed page before releasing it onto the output tray. If the printer starts printing the next page while the printed page is still drying on the output tray, the newly printed page might rub against the printed page on the output tray, causing ink to smear. Severity of smearing depends on the amount of ink used on each printed page.
To prevent the printed pages from rubbing against each other, print using the Normal or Best print mode.
Alternatively, in the Toolbox, turn on the output ramp for printing in Fast Normal mode. Click the Printer Services tab, and then click Configure Output Ramp. See Toolbox (Windows).
