Text is jagged at the edges

!

Make sure the correct type of font has been chosen

Some software applications offer custom fonts that have jagged
edges when enlarged or printed. By using TrueType fonts, you can
ensure that the printer is able to print smooth fonts. When selecting
a font, look for the TrueType icon.

A bitmap image of text is being printed

A bitmap image of text might have jagged edges when skewed,
enlarged, or printed. By using TrueType fonts, you can ensure that
the printer is able to print smooth-looking fonts. When selecting a
font, look for the TrueType icon.

!

An incorrect paper type is being used

Your printer is designed to work well with most office paper types or
quality 25 percent cotton bond paper. Because it uses ink to
produce an image, paper that accepts ink well produces the best
results. Paper that is heavily textured or does not accept ink well
can cause graphics and text to print poorly.

It is best to test a variety of paper types before buying large
quantities. Find a paper type that works well and is easy to
purchase. HP Inkjet media are designed for the best quality results.

To determine if the paper type is the cause of the problem, try
printing the same document on a type of paper that has previously
worked well with your printer.

The software application is conflicting with the printer

The problem is likely a conflict related to the software package you
are using. Contact the manufacturer of your software for help.
