Print is fuzzy.... looks out of alignment.. how do I fix this?

You can try to do a power reset on the printer and if does the same, try to do a hardware reset. I found some steps on this site with specific error messages, How to reset Canon mp210. It has steps procedure you can follow.. :)

Check the following:

• The specific Printer driver for your OS has been installed (look at Printer properties)
  
• The correct paper size has been selected and loaded from the correct feeder slot.
• Application software (such as MS Office) has correct print margins (and more specifically the heading margin)

ps. Mis-alignment of the cartridge will not cause such massive errors but would normally result in a 'fuzzy' printout.

Hope it helps and good luck!

Try cleaning your print heads, doing the maintenance option on your printer. To do this
start
devices and printers
right click on your printer and select properties
click the color tab
click on printer services
clean print heads and align cartridge
You should be good to go, hope this helps!

o.k. here are some things to look for:

First, power off your machine unplug wait a minute. plug it back in and power on.

run a test.....

If same problem persists, gain access to your print cartridges by opening lid.

remove print cartridges and with a lightly dampened towel or cloth clean the print heads. you will see some ink left on the cartridge this is your print head.

Next, place cartridges correctly back in place.

Your printer should now prompt you to run a print alignment configuration.

Go through these steps and do a test print again, Hopefully this will fix the problem.

If it does not. Write back and I will next tell you what to do..

Some copy papers are extremely thin, and the printing on them will look fuzzy, but if you have skips in the text, this problem is with the cartridges. Look at the heads of the cartridges and see if they are clean. If that doesn't work, i would return the cartridges and try another set. The same thing happened on my HP, I replaced the cartridges and it worked fine!

you should be able to align your projectors through the setup menus. you will have to align two colors, usually red and green to stop the fuzziness and you should look at the tint selection in the menus for the blue color if the realignment does not fix it as well.

I could not locate the manual on the Hitachi website.

Try to clean the censor belt, it's help.
Printer can't print correctly if censor belt have dirt and you will face alignment probem.

Hi, try putting a little 3 in 1 light oil on the bar thgat the print head runs on, the 'bale bar' as it is called can get dry and jam, only put a little oin in 6 or 7 places otherwise, you may end up with oil in the parer drive mechanism.

Try to change the dpi to the maximum, maybe 600 dpi. This will make the picture more defined.
