Improve the quality of the Canon printer print. Optimal printing settings for all documents

Why the printer prints the wrong colors that on the computer?

Deterioration of print quality (in t.h. and printing incorrect colors) can be associated with both hardware and software malfunctions-regardless of the manufacturer and the printer model/All-in-One Printer. Some problems can be eliminated without the need to disassemble the printing machine, the use of special tools and the help of specialists. Consider them.

The list of reasons that entail the seal with incorrect colors varies depending on the specific model of the printer. However, some of these reasons can be called common to all existing printing machines. These include:

• The banal reason is the low residual level of ink of one of the cartridges (black and any color). By mistake or otherwise, the user could once give the Printing command to continue the seal after he issued a message about the end of the toner in an ink of one or another color. Therefore, the printer will continue to print, “not paying attention” to the low level of the toner.
• Economic operating mode with a specific color printer. Typically, the mode is automatically turned on at the moment when the volume of ink in one of the cartridges reaches a minimum manufacturer. If any paint is not enough to form the desired color, then the quality of the color print will be appropriate.
• Incorrect color settings set by the print driver on the computer or in the printer settings menu (refers to models equipped with a LCD display with button/sensory control). And if the reason is not related to the settings, then from the print driver or from your own control panel you can adjust the color printer.
• The clogging of the snot of the print head (PG), the output channels of the cartridges and/or tubes leading the ink to the print head. This usually happens with a prolonged simple printer/All-in-One Printer due to the drying out of the toner. If the printer prints not with the colors that on the screen, but at the same time, it still prints, most likely, the above.described malfunctions relate to only one of the cartridges and/or there is a clog of only some of the snot of the PG, the channels of the paint and other nodes associated with them.
• Failures in the work of one of the inkwells (we do not mention the full failure, t.to. In this case, the seal usually does not happen at all). Cartridge. not just a container for paint. It is also a device that requires power supply, which is controlled by the operating system (firmware) of the printer. It is clear that if the command coming from the firmware is performed by the electronics of the cartridge not like the manufacturer is laid down, then the print result will not be what it should be.

Of course, this is not a complete list of all possible reasons for incorrect in the color rendering board of printing. But all the others, as a rule, are caused by hardware malfunctions (up to failures in the operation of any one microcircuit), the elimination or even the diagnosis of which is not feasible in home/office conditions.

Consider the possible solutions to the listed problems.

Clogging of the plot of the print head

A long simple printer or the use of non.original cartridges (or ink for refueling) can lead to clogging with dry paint of the snot of the print head, the output channels of the cartridges themselves and other nodes responsible for the delivery of toner to the PG.

In the most advanced cases, the elimination of this problem requires specialists’ intervention. But if the printer somehow prints, then you can always try to clean the nozzles of the print head (and with them the nodes of the paint) yourself. For this, nothing will have to be disassembled. To help. a special function of cleaning the print head, present in the printers of any manufacturer and any model.

In printers of different brands/models, the function of cleaning the PG is launched in its own way. As a rule, this is done from a computer from the settings of the print driver or specialized software that comes with the printer or can be downloaded from the official website of the manufacturer of the device. Here are a few examples.

Cleaning the print head of Canon printers

Canon printers have two patches of the print head. quick and deep. According to the recommendations of the manufacturer himself, cleaning should be done as follows:

• First, the rapid cleaning mode is involved.
• If it does not help, it starts re
• And if this did not help to eliminate the problem, then you already need to run the deep cleaning mode.

This order is due to the fact that deep cleaning consumes a fairly large amount of ink, and also provides a strong load on the print head.

Here are the instructions for using the function of cleaning from a computer, suitable for a large number of printer models and All-in-One Printer production of Canon:

• Open the “control panel”, go to the “Equipment and Sound” section, then to the subsection “Devices and Printers”.
• Open the Canon printer settings by clicking on the device icon with the right mouse button and selecting the “Properties”, “Printer Setting” point in the context menu.
• The driver settings window will open, go to it to the Maintenance tab (maintenance).
• Press the “Cleaning” button (cleaning).
• A new dialog box will open. In it, run the “Print Head Cleaning” function (cleaning the print head) and select a group of cartridges for which cleaning will be performed (in our case you need to choose a group of colored ink).
• Click “Initial Check Items” (elements of the initial verification) to obtain information about what actions you need to perform before starting the function of cleaning the snot. Perform these actions, following the instructions on the screen.
• Then, returning to the “Cleaning” window (cleaning), click on the “Execute” button (perform) to start the function. Expect the end of the cleaning procedure.
• Upon completion of the procedure, a dialog box will be displayed with a proposal to launch the “Nozzle Check” function (Sopel check). Click OK and expect the end of the check.

Upon completion of all procedures, the printer will perform a trial color printing. Perform all actions again if the colors are still imprinted incorrectly. If the second passage has not helped, then start the “Deep Cleaning” function (deep cleaning) in the same “Maintenance” (maintenance) driver settings. All actions are the same as with the usual cleaning of the print head.

Cleaning the print head of the printers Epson

Printers and All-in-One Printer production of Epson have two cleaning functions. One of them is cleaning the print head, and the other. cleaning all the nodes responsible for the supply of toner on PC (t.n. “Technological cleaning”). The designer designed by the manufacturer is approximately the same as the Canon printer. First, the PG itself is cleaned twice, and only after. technological cleaning.

Both are launched from the same place:

• Open the printer properties according to the instructions above.
• In the printing window, go to the Service tab.
• Click on the “Cleaning of the print head” button and follow simple instructions on the screen.
• If the first pass has not helped, use repeat the previous action.
• If the two previous procedures have not solved the problem, run the “technological cleaning of ink” by clicking on the corresponding button. Follow the instructions on the screen.

About the same principle, the printing head is cleaned by any printers and All-in-One Printer. The difference is only in the name of these functions and the way they are launching (but this is always done from the driver settings).

Aligning the print head on Epson printers

In printers and All-in-One Printer production of Epson, this feature is called “calibration of the print head”. You can start it from the settings of the device installed on the computer. On some Epson models, PG calibration can be launched using a touch/LCD panel, which is located on the printing machine case.

Calibration of the printing head in printers and multifunctional Epson devices through the driver is performed as follows (using the example of Epson L132):

• Open the properties of the printer (drivers). You can make from any program with a print function: use the Ctrl P key combination, in the window opened, press the “Properties” button opposite the name of the printer.
• Another window will open. “Print Settings”. Go to it to the Service tab, then start the “Calibration of the Printing Head” function by pressing the button with the corresponding inscription.

In the case of printers and All-In-One Printer Epson, equipped with a touch/button control of the LCD control panel, starting the calibration function of the print head depends on the specific model of the device. But the process of using the alignment function itself is practically identical in any model:

• Download paper into the printer tray.
• First of all, you need to open the settings menu on the LCD display (depending on the printer model/All-in-One Printer, you can get from both the display itself and by pressing the settings button).
• In the settings menu (or deeper. in the subsection “Service”, “Service”, etc.P.) Run the function “Calibration of the print head”.
• The printer will print the calibration template on the sheet, which is several sets of images in the form of numbered squares. Take a printed sheet and carefully study it.
• Here you need to choose the number of the line and that specific square that is better than all the others is imprinted in the previous step. The numbers of the lines in the table correspond to the numbers of the sets with the squares. And the figure in this line corresponds to the number of the square itself in the specified set.
• The setting option shown in the image above suggests that the square was best printed in the first line of the printed template (in general, this option is set by default).
• Click the OK button on the printer case/All-in-One Printer or display and wait for the end of the procedure. If necessary, the procedure can be re.launched.

Aligning the print head on Canon printers

At the printers and All-In-One Printer Canon, the alignment of the PG can also be performed using the driver (in this case, a special utility) or start the corresponding function from the control panel on the device case.

For calibration of the PG through the Canon software installed on PC:

• Load at least 2 sheets of paper into the printer tray.
• Install the full package of printer drivers/All-in-One Printer (can be downloaded from the official Canon website), which includes the Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool utility. You can also download and set this program separately (the official page of the Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool).
• Launch the Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool from the label on the desktop (if not, look for the Start menu).
• In the main window of the program, go to the “Custom Settings” section (“Special Parameters”).
• In a small window opened, set the checkplace opposite the “Align Heads Manoally” item (“Align the heads”), then the “OK” button, and then confirm in the dialog box the change in the printer parameters.
• The printer will print the template, which is several sets of painted rectangles. On the computer screen, meanwhile, a table with text input fields will be displayed.
• Focusing on the printed template, enter on the computer in each entry field of those rectangles that are printed with the least visible stripes of horizontal/vertical orientation. Click OK Upon completion of the input.
• This is not the end yet. The printer will re.launch the procedure for aligning the PG. All actions are the same, only this time the printed template will consist of fewer sets of rectangles.

Calibration of the Canon Printing Head using the Printer control panel can be made in automatic and/or manual mode (depending on the model). For those models that support the automatic regime of alignment of the PG, everything is done very simply:

• We look at the power indicator, preparing to count the number of flashes.
• Click and hold the “Resume/Cancel” button (“Renew/Cancel”), after a short time, the power indicator will begin to flash green.
• Counts 4 flashes, then immediately release the restrained button.
• We wait until the printer performs the procedure, which can take up to 5 minutes.
• At the end, a special alignment diagram will be printed, according to which it will be possible to evaluate the result.
• If the print quality does not suit, we return to the previous instruction.

Manual alignment of PG without using a computer is possible only on full.functional devices (with a scanner) Canon. The actions are as follows (for example, Canon TS3100 and MP280):

• Download several sheets into the All-In-One Printer tray.
• Press the “Setup” button (“Setting”) on the printer case until the LCD “4” or light indicator (Canon MP280) of the letter “U”.
• Press the Black button (Black) or Color (Color). The printer will print a black and white or color sample of alignment with graphic instructions for the subsequent installation of the sheet on the glass of the scanner.
• In one of the corners of the sheet, the label will be printed. the triangle. It is necessary to install a sheet of the printed side on the scanner so that the label coincides with the level of alignment (arrow) on the All-In-One Printer case.
• Lower the scanner cover as carefully as possible, then press the “Black” (“black”) or “color” (“color”) button to start scanning. The rest of the car will do the rest itself.

Follow the power indicator. the cessation of flashing will mean that the calibration of the print head is completed.

How to lighten the image when printing?

Open the driver by clicking the “Properties” button in the “Print” dialog box. Go to the “Image Parameters” tab. Use the slider to change the brightness or darkening of the document. To change this parameter, move the slider or click on the left or to the right of it.

• With the right key we open the dialog box and select “Properties”. By the way, this bookmark may be called parameters or settings, depending on the printer model and software.
• Choose the “Quality” or “color” tab (also depends on the printer), where we go into “additional parameters”.

Why the printer prints dull photos?

Why? The fact is that between the scene that you photograph and the print on the photo paper, several processes are wedged in the photo paper that physically intervene in the color rendering process: the camera perceives colors depending on the selected or certain automatically settings (primarily white balance).

If the cartridge is not new, the causes of poor prints can lie in the breakdown or wear of individual parts of the printer.

• Photoval.This is a cylinder 30 cm long and 2-3 cm thick. On top it is covered with a green or blue photocell. During operation, the coating is erased. The edges of the photoval will be worn out faster, then black stripes will be visible on the sheet at the edges. Когда слой изнашивается полностью, на выходе будет равномерная бледная печать.
• Magnetic shaft. When it deals, on photosal, and then on paper, an insufficient amount of dye arrives. The spare part wear out faster than the rest, as it has a shorter life.
• Dosage blade.The element is responsible for the distribution of the toner according to the magnetic shaft, which then applies the dye to the paper. The malfunction of the blade causes passes and light printing due to a lack of toner.

Cleaning and prevention of worn elements will only briefly eliminate the problem. An effective solution is their complete replacement.

How to print in optimal quality on Canon printers: how to make a printer set for printing all documents in optimal quality or only some print tasks. What should be borne in mind when choosing this option.

How to print a more clear?

The problem of blurry printing is quite common, but it can be solved most often without contacting the master-repairman, but on your own. To do this, we propose to use the advice of experts and learn from this material on how to make a more clear and high.quality print.

• If you save on paper and buy material with low density, then you should not be surprised at the poor quality. At the same time, incorrect density parameters can also be installed in the printer settings, which leads to a loss of clarity. If you do not know the desired density values ​​for your device, then you can find the best option by trial and error.
• Check the contents of the cartridge. He can simply dry out if the printer has not been used for a long time. Make a few runs, after installing a high level of print quality on the device itself. It will also not hurt to check how secure the cartridge is and is there any damage to it.

Reinstall the printer driver, or better update it by installing the latest version (you can find it on the manufacturer’s official website).

We solve the problem of low clarity on the jet printer

Sometimes it is required to clean photos from coloring materials and sticking toner due to static discharge.

If all of the above methods have not improved the clarity of printing, then the time has come to contact professionals.

The article on how to make a more clear print is written with the support of specialists of the PRINTSID Corporal Center.ru

We solve the problem with the pale print of the printer, make it brighter

Each of the problems discussed below arises with different frequency, so it is best to start with the most effective options, which we recommend. All solutions are located from the most effective and frequent to the least common in order to simplify the task.

Cartridge check

Naturally, suspicion first of all falls on ending ink in cartridges, so their verification should be a priority. Owners of laser devices are recommended to gently remove the ink cartridge and shake it, then check the seal again. Such movements concentrate the remains of the toner in one place and will allow it to use it normally, ensuring the quality of the print for some time. However, if this does not help, refueling should. As for the owners of the jet printers, check the cartridge for tightness or suspend the cartridge. Detailed instructions for refueling cartridges can be found in another article at the link below.

Disconnecting economical mode

The inclusion of eco-mode is the only software problem that causes fuzzy printouts. We put it in second place, because the solution is quite simple and the necessary actions can be performed even by a novice user. To turn off the environmental mode, do the following:

Then it is best to restart the printer and clean the print queue so that the changes made to enter into force.

Displacement of the print head

Due to the fact that the printing head of the printers during print is constantly in motion, it is mechanical/physical influences on it. Sooner or later, this leads to a small physical displacement of the PG or other mechanical components related to it regarding the initial location. In most cases, this is reflected in the occurrence of strips or horizontal/vertical displacement of the printed text, table lines, etc.P. But in some cases, the occurrence of the phenomenon of pale print is also possible.

If the displacement of the print head is within the normal range for a particular printer model/All-in-One Printer, then it can be leveled/calibrated without the need to disassemble the device-also by launching the corresponding function (is present in all printers and All-in-One Printer). As in the previous case, this function starts from the driver settings (other options for its launch are possible. depends on the printer).

Here are the instructions for aligning the printing heads for Canon devices (about the same should be done on printers from any other manufacturers).

Aligning the print head on Canon printers

At the printers and All-In-One Printer Canon, the alignment of the PG can be performed using the driver (in this case, the proprietary Canon utility):

• Install the full package of printer software/All-In-One Printer Canon. It includes a driver, as well as various service utilities, including the Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool we need.
• This program can be downloaded separately (the official page download page).
• Install and run Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool. If there is no shortcut on the desktop, find it in the “Start” menu in the “Canon” folder.
• In the main window of the program, go to the “Custom Settings” section (“Special Parameters”).
• In the window that opens, install the checkpoint opposite the “Align Heads Manually” option (“Align the heads”), then the OK button, and then confirm in the dialog box the change in the printer parameters.
• Click the “Start” (“Start”) button in the newly opened window to start the alignment procedure.

• The printer will make a printout of the template, which is several groups of painted rectangles. On the computer screen, meanwhile, a table with text input fields will be displayed.
• Looking at the template, enter on the computer in each text field of the numbers of those rectangles that are printed in the highest quality (t.e. those that were more clearly imprinted). Click OK Upon completion of the input.
• The printer will re.launch the procedure for aligning the PG. It will be necessary to do the same, only this time the printed template will consist of fewer groups of rectangles.
• If necessary, the procedure can be repeated from the very beginning again.

Corcolor pollution. shaft (roller) transfer of charge

As mentioned above, in the laser printers of any manufacturers there is a shorter. Despite the complex name and purpose, this is just a round oblong metal rod, covered with a rubber shell. a dielectric.

It is this shell that is polluted, which leads to a deterioration in the performance. As one of the results of this phenomenon. dyeing powder is poorly applied to the surface of the paper, t.e. The printer begins to print pale. The way out of the situation is either cleaning or replacing the charge shaft. But in any case, the printer will have to disassemble.

In a number of printing machines (regardless of the manufacturer), access to the Korotron is not problems. So it looks like an example of Dell laser printers of the 1720 lineup:

• Now we need to separate these two components from each other. At the base of the node with the cartridge there is a button (a). click it, then pull the cartridge with the toner up, holding it by the handle (b).

• We collect everything in the reverse sequence: first we connect the node with the cartridge with the node of the photo bank, then we install the prefabricated structure in the printer case.

Unfortunately, not all laser printers can also be easily accessed to the shorter. If there is no certainty, it is better to entrust the procedure to specialists.
