My printout is grainy when I print from any application. What should I do?

• Try the following solutions:
  • Make sure you loaded the printable side of the paper facedown in the cassette.
  • Select a higher print quality setting and turn off any high speed settings in your product software.
  • Align the print head.
  • You may need to increase the image resolution or print in a smaller size; see your software documentation.
