Ricoh Aficio GX7000 - Manual (Page 204)

Are you printing densely colored images on both sides of paper?
When a large amount of ink is used to completely cover a side, one-sided printing is recommended.
Colors Do Not Match the Displayed Image
If there are differences between colors of the print results and the displayed image, the following questions
should be addressed.
Has the hue of colors been adjusted?
Since printed colors and screen colors are produced by different methods, a color printed and a color
displayed on a screen can have different hues even though they are the “same” color. Use the color
matching function to make the hue of printed colors and displayed colors closer.
Has the nozzle check been performed?
The print-heads may be clogged and the amount of ink may not be able to be regulated. Print the nozzle
check test pattern and clean the print-heads as necessary. See p.134 "Nozzle Check", p.135 "Head-
cleaning".
Was printing done in black and white?
Check the color setting of the application and the color print setting of the printer driver.
Have the print quality settings been made?
In the [Print Quality] area, select [Quality priority], or [Speed priority], and then print.
Does the paper type setting match?
Make sure that the paper type setting of the printer driver matches the type of paper loaded.
Have you tried printing with inkjet plain paper?
Try printing with inkjet plain paper. The print results should be clearer.
Is bidirectional communication enabled?
If bidirectional communication is not enabled, the tone of printed images might differ from that of displayed
images. Establish bidirectional communication.
See p.101 "If Bidirectional Communication is Disabled". For details about bidirectional communication
settings, see the printer driver Help.
Positions Do Not Match the Displayed Image
If the position of printed items differs from the position of displayed items, the following questions should
be addressed.
