Improve print quality

If you are not satisfied with the print quality of your document, make sure you:

Use the appropriate paper for the document. For example, use photo paper if you are printing a photo.
Use paper that is heavier, bright white, or coated.
Select a higher print quality:

From the software application, choose File Print.... The Print dialog appears.
From the Printer: pop-up menu, choose Lexmark 6200 Series.
From the pop-up menu that says Copies & Pages, choose Quality & Media.
From Print Quality, select Automatic or Photo.

If your document still does not have the print quality you want after doing the basic solutions, follow these steps:

Align the print cartridges. If the print quality has not improved, continue to step 2.
Clean the print cartridge nozzles. If the print quality has not improved, repeat this step up to two more times before continuing to step 3.
Reinsert the print cartridges. For help, go to Remove a used cartridge and Install the print cartridges, and then print your document again. If the quality has not improved, continue to step 4.
Wipe the print cartridge nozzles and contacts. If the print quality has not improved, repeat this step up to two more times.
If print quality is still unsatisfactory, replace your print cartridges. Go to Order supplies.
