Canon iP 1800 color photos

[John Markley]

I just bought the iP1800 and it prints ok on plain paper, but photos in color are washed out and blurry. I ran the print head tests and alignment seems good to me and the head is not clogged. I used both the supplied Canon "photo paper glossy" and Royal Brite High gloss paper, with the print instructions set to "high" quality. Neither gave a decent picture, even if run thru twice. Any ideas?

If nozzle check is fine - printer is fine, check driver settings in printing preference -> color intensity

Try using the "photo paper plus"or "photo paper pro" setting..that shouldnhelp somewhat.
