The printouts are garbled. If the printout is not clear, netted or dotted you should check your printer s ink cartridge, ribbon quality, or if it s a laser printer, then the laser cartridge. Also in case of muddled printouts, most printers have a simple procedure for cleaning the print heads. A good idea is to clean your printer periodically or after the printer has been idle for a few days or weeks. Paper keeps getting stuck.
Paper jams are one of the most common encountered problems.
However, in such cases, don t try to tweak around with the internal part of printers. You could end up damaging the belt, rollers, head and other components, not to mention yourself. The reason for the paper jam could be the increase in humidity. Even slightly damp paper can cause jams by sticking together, causing more than one sheet to be fed at a time. Remove the paper from its tray and fan it.
