Very poor inkjet print quality (Epson WF7610)

[Iceniblu]

Hi all,

Thought I'd come to the experts to find out where to start.... This printer is just over a year old, and print quality has been getting pretty bad (was never perfect).

FYI I've already

• tried different settings (i.e. disabling fast print etc)
• updated Win10 software and printer firmware.
• Nozzle check,
• Cleaned print head
• Gone through the print head alignment routine

Has anyone got any other suggestions for what may cause such "smudging / blurring". Pages are definitely being left long enough to dry, but seem to be coming out like this. Very hard to put prints in front of other people (i.e. clients)

Any help greatly appreciated

Simon

I have a Printware iJetcolor Inkjet and I get the same problems sometimes. Its always the printhead with mine, so I either soak the printhead in distilled water for awhile and if that doesn't work, then i unfortunately have to replace the printhead.
