Q:
What should I do if my printout has lines running through it?
A:
If you notice white or dark lines in your prints (also called banding), try these solutions before you reprint:
Clean the print head.
Make sure the paper type setting matches the type of paper you loaded.
Make sure you loaded the printable side of the paper facedown in the cassette or faceup in the rear MP tray.
Turn off any high speed settings in your product software.
Align the print head.
You may need to replace the ink cartridges.
