My printout has a slight slant. What should I do?

• If your printouts are slanted, try these solutions:

  • Make sure the paper is loaded in the correct direction.
  • Make sure your paper meets the specifications for your product.
  • Slide the edge guides against the edges of the paper.
  • Make sure the paper type setting matches the type of paper you loaded.
  • Select a higher print quality setting in your printer software.
  • Turn off any high speed settings in your product software.
  • Align the print head.
  • Adjust the print quality.
  • If aligning the print head did not improve the quality, disable the Bidirectional Printing setting.
  • Make sure the product is not printing while tilted or at an angle.
