When my MX882 prints at standard or fast settings, I get 1/4 inch striping (left to right).

The stripes appear to be caused by extra blue ink in the darker bands.  The head-test looked great with one possible clue that is not described in the manuals or forums (so far).  The top color block (C) is two tone blue, 50/50.  No known changes were made to the printer or the computers that have access.  What could cause this?  OR even more important, how do I clear it up.  Printing everything on high quality is expensive. 

Hi Thumb1,
Performing a print head alignment on the printer may improve the print quality you are experiencing.  To perform a print head alignment, please follow the steps located at the link below:
Performing the PIXMA MX882 Print Head Alignment
Hope this helps!

  • I would like to transfer old reel-to-reel tapes to an iMac. There are different recordings on the left and right channel of the tapes. When I connect the tape deck to the Mac, I get one recording on the left, the other on the right speaker. What to do?

    I was about to transfer some music from a reel-to-reel machione to my Mac. There are different sound recordings on the left and right channels. When I connect with RCA cables and Y-connector, I hear one recording from the left speaker, another from the right side. How do I record only one side, but hear it from both speakers?
    Detlef

    You don't say what end, or connectors are plugged into what. I'm assuming the RCA connectors are on the reel-to-reel end. Since the tape has two different mono recordings, one on each track, you of course only want one at a time during playback. Otherwise, the Mac (or any recording setup) can only treat it as a stereo recording with the standard Left-Right tracks.
    1)  There are multiple ways to connect different types of cables to get a mono signal down to a stereo output at the Mac. Here's one way.
    2) Plug any RCA cable (single cable or stereo) into only the right or left RCA output of the reel-to-reel.
    3) On the other end of the RCA cable, plug in an adapter like this. That will feed the single RCA output into a mono 1/8" plug.
    4) Then plug that adapter into this. That turns the 1/8" mono signal into a "stereo" output with the same single track audio being fed to the Mac on both the left and right channels.
    5) Record either the left or right output of the reel-to-reel. Rewind the tape and switch the RCA connector on the reel-to-reel to the right channel (if you started with the left) and record that mono signal as stereo.
    Or, avoid all of this hardware mumbo-jumbo in the first place and do this:
    1) Record the audio just the way you have it. Two different recordings, one on each channel.
    2) Copy the audio recording to a new name and open it in your editor.
    3) Highlight the left track and copy/paste it into the right track. Presto! Mono recording of the left track on both channels. Save the recording.
    4) Repeat, only copy/pasting the right track into the left track and save the second recording.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.

  • Printing the test photo.....1/2 inch white border on right side.

     Even after re-installing Photosmart C4780 printer in Win 7. I used to be able to print 4x6 fine but now this border problem.  I don't want to change the paper type.....shouldn't have to.

    What printer model?  Some printers require the use of "tabbed" photo paper that has a 0.5" removable tab.  These printers are not capable of printing full 4 sided borderless, they print three sides borderless and then the tab is removed after printing resulting in a full borderless print.

  • Crashing When Attempting to Print - Workaround for some

    I am running the latest Leopard and all of the Apple software as well. Tried to print from Pages and it shuts down. Saved the files as a PDF and opened in Preview, it shuts down. Adobe Acrobat shuts down. Any application that can open a PDF will crash on this Pages document. Opened in Graphic Converter and it prints fine. I don't work nor do I have any interest in Graphic Converter. Just letting people know that at least for me. GC was able to print a document that I spent a lot of time on and was due to my customer today and that NO OTHER program could print it. After seeing so many people with printing problems, I hope that a real solution will be found and not this work around.

    Still having same issue... Crashing when trying to print from any application.
    I did get a message now though...
    "The Application Numbers quit unexpectedly.
    The problem may have been caused by the NSPrintSetting Plug-in"
    I Googled this "NSPrintSetting Plug-in", but didnt find much. It may be related to Epson however.
    Im afraid I am going to have to do a clean install. ;-{

  • The new Pages in Mavericks OS:  How can I get a ruler down the left side?  When I click on "Show Rulers,"  all I get is a ruler at the top.

    In the new Mavericks OS, when I use Pages, I cannot find a way to get a ruler on the left side of the document.  When I click on "Show rulers," all I get is a ruler at the top of the document.  How can I get a ruler on the left side?

    Wait for an Apple update to Pages which is suppose to put the vertical ruler feature back in.

  • Acrobat 9 very slow when trying to print

    Need to know if anybody has a solution to my printing problem. We just bought and installed Acrobat 9. When trying to print a file in the program, it takes a very long time for the file to be spooled to the printer. Of course a multi page document is even worse. We are printing to a printer that is networked, it's a Canon high speed printer with a PCL driver. We have tried a PostScript driver as well. I have tried changing the resolution to 300dpi and not print as an image. We can transfer the file to a PC with just a reader, and it spools much faster to the same printer.
    Are we missing a setting somewhere? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Hi Jacob. So, let me get this straight...
    You have a file.pdf open in Acrobat 9.0
    You go to File > Print and choose your networked Canon Printer.
    That's the one that spools slow???
    Then you say... you take the very same file.pdf and open it in Reader (to a different PC) go to File > Print to the very same networked Canon printer and it spools fast?
    How about gettiing the free Adobe Reader on the PC that spools slow, open your file.pdf in Reader and print that to the networked printer to compare spooling speeds? That would be a true comparison to see if it's just Acrobat or the PC.

  • Chinese Fonts are coming ZUNK when i do print preview from web UI

    Hello All,
    I have a smartform which includes a standard text which is maintained in Chinese language. This smartform would be called from web UI -> activities -> Fax -> print preview.
    when i do print preview of any activity, everything is coming correct except chinese text, it is coming as zunk characters.
    i have created a standard text ( through Tcode - SO10 ) in CHINESE When i call it in my Smartforms it is displaying like boxes ( garbage ) .
    But when seen in SO10 in Chinese login language the text is maintained properly in Chinese
    Please let me know wat is missed out or is there any settings which should be enabled.

    Hi Sagar,
    Yes that's a problem for Cyrillic fonts , I suppose you are using two action definitions : one for ES and one for EN print.
    For Spanish you have to use a smart style which supports the ISO Cyrillic characters and that will then open up correctly for Spanish users.

  • Printing colors not correct when using  non printer software

    I am using a new CANON MX882. When I print using the Canon easy photo software the print turn out perfect. However when I print from Aperture or Photoshop Elements the pictures turn out with the colors blown out and overexposed. I have the lates drivers availabe from Canon which they say is compatible works with 10.7. I have tried using the printer manament or the software and it doesn't make any difference. Any thoughts on whats next? I am wasting all sorts of paper trying to figure this out.
    thanks
    Chris

    I don't have Aperture or PSE but I do have Photoshop CS5 and with that application the best settings are to let the printer manage the colours. I have some grabs from the PS5 print dialog for your reference.
    From the PS5 print dialog, from the Color Management menu the Color Handling is set to "Printer Manages Color".
    When you select Print and the normal print dialog appears (or you open Print Settings from the PS5 print dialog) select the Color Matching menu and ensure it is set to Canon Color Matching.
    And the last thing to check is the Quality & Matching menu for the Canon printer. The colour profiles for the printer are based on different paper stocks. So it is important that in the Media Type menu you select the type of paper being used and you also want to select High Quality.

  • Unable to disable Cover Page printing on standard report

    HI Experts,
    I would like to exclude the cover page printing of standard transaction code S_ALR_87009895 's report.
    The preview comes out fine (without the cover page) but when it is sends to the spool and then preview at SP01 before printing, the display includes the cover page.
    The cover page includes: Sorting Criteria and Data Statistics above the actual report.
    How do I exclude the cover page?
    NOTE: I had tried setting the properties prior the printing to DO NOT PRINT at SAP Cover Page drop down list, and OS Cover Page .
    But it seems to have no effect.
    Any other setting at printer device level?
    Kindly advice the steps.
    Thank You.

    Goto--->Start--->Printers & Faxes--->Right click on printer--->Properties--->Advance TAB
    Page Separator--->Just remove the page separator
    Hope this works.

  • I spent ages renaming and sorting my holiday photos in correct order but when uploaded to print they reverted to the original name and order? How can I stop this happening?

    I spent ages renaming and sorting my holiday photos in correct order but when uploaded to print they reverted to the original name and order? How can I stop this happening?

    When you "rename" a photo in iPhoto you're adding a Title to the shot, not renaming the file. This si quite standard metadata in photography, but it appars that it's getting lost in the upload/at Snapfish process.
    You can use the Titles as filenames if you export using the File -> Export command. It's one of the options in the export dialogue. You can upload the exported items.
