Where to Find Additional Information
The means of accurately managing the colors printed by your printer vary with the
software application and driver being used. Refer to the following documentation:
n The Software Application Note for your application, in the specific package
shipped with your printer.
n On-line documentation in the drivers shipped with your printer. If you cannot
find any reason for the discrepancy, before getting help, find out for which
CMYK printer inks the colors have been specified.
Non-PostScript Additionally, remember that for your printer may be configured to use one of its
internal pen palettes instead of your software’s palette (which is the default). See the
section starting on page 6-3, Changing Pen Widths and Colors Using the Internal
Palettes.
If There are Slightly Warped Lines
n The media itself may be warped. This can happen if it has been used or stored in
an extreme environment. For all environmental specifications, see page 13-6.
If There are Blurred Lines (Ink “Bleeds” from Lines)
n Perhaps you have adjusted the drying time in the front-panel menu to speed up
the printer output. Set “Drying time” to “Automatic”.
For details of drying time adjustments, see page 3-44.
If there is a horizontal line 2 inches (5.5 cms) from the start
of your image.
n If Margins are set to Smaller, the printer pauses briefly to cut the top margin after
printing has started. On some non HP-media this can leave a noticeable mark.
Changing Margins to Normal or Extended will eliminate this problem.
