Lurking Pitfalls

When issues occur with printing, the causes are many fold. The first thing to ask is 'was it printing OK up to now?'. If things have 'gone off' the first port of call is always a nozzle check - it is amazing how many people either don't do them or in some instances don't know how to!

Assuming this is OK, check that you have not inadvertently performed an upgrade to either drivers or your operating system (OS). Presently people who have upgraded their Macs to Mavericks are finding that Photoshop CS4 only prints blank pages! Sometimes a printer driver has become corrupted; this is especially true if you suddenly find the print spitting out partially completed. We have also run into trouble with 'scum dots', a flaw in profile making which results in an approximately 1% coverage of cyan or magenta ink, thus degrading highlights.
