Intensity
setting
set too high.

paper may absorb too much ink and become wavy, causing paper abrasion. In
this case, reduce the
Intensity
setting in the Operation Panel and try printing
again.
Printing beyond the recommended
printing area.
If you are printing beyond the recommended printing area of your printing paper,
the lower edge of the paper may become stained with ink.

Cause
Action
Print quality is not set appropriately.
In the Operation Panel, set
Print quality
in each mode to
High(quality-
priority)
.
Especially when printing a document that requires a lot of ink, increasing the
Print quality
setting is effective in reducing uneven colors.
Cause
Action
The original document is not loaded
correctly.
Check that the original is loaded correctly on the Platen Glass.
See “Loading Original Documents” on page 6.
The print quality setting is not suitable
for the original.
Set the print quality to suit the type of your document.
See “Setting Items in Each Mode” on page 22.
The original document is not loaded
with the side to be copied faced down.
When loading the original on the Platen Glass, the side to be copied should be
faced down.
The original document is a printout
from this machine.
Print quality may be reduced if you copy a printout.
Instead of copying a printout, print the original directly either from the digital
camera, memory card, or your computer.
The Platen Glass or the inner side of
the Document Cover is dirty.
Clean the Platen Glass and the inner side of the Document Cover.
See “Cleaning the Platen Glass and Document Cover” on page 68.
Cause
Action
Ink tank is empty.
Open the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) and check the ink lamps.
If an ink lamp is flashing red at about 1-second intervals, the tank is empty.
Replace the ink tank, and close the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover). See
“Replacing an Ink Tank” on page 50.
If you want to continue printing, confirm the message displayed on the LCD and
take the appropriate action. See “Error Message Is Displayed on the LCD” on
page 72.
Note
If multiple ink lamps are flashing, check how fast they are flashing.
Fast flashing (at about 1-second intervals) indicates the tank is empty. Slow
flashing (at about 3-second intervals) indicates ink is low. For details on different
flashing speeds, see “Getting the Ink Level Information” on page 50.
