Check the paper you are using.My printer does that if my paper is too glossy or not glossy enough if that makes sense. If that is not it try checking your settings before you print. Hope I was of some help

Try Printing Onto Regular Paper First, and see if that works.

Whoops...

It may be... try using different photo paper. It is a possibility that your printer ink is not designed to print onto that type of paper.

Hey Lucas42,
When you print something a comfirmation window should open. At the top is a section entitled "Printer Options" or something like that where you can choose what printer you want to use. Beside of this there should be a button that says "Properties". Open this and there should be a drop-down menu of paper-types. Select the paper you are using. You may have to click "Advanced" in the "Properties" window. Also, you may have to look on different tabs.

I agree with what lutherjw had to say. Also, if you have any friends that are really good with computers you could have them look at it. If it just doesn't work you could always use the normal paper, even though it won't look quite as good. And if you have time you might want to take it to a computer store and see if they can help you with it.

Hey Lucas42,
I know that what I posted earlier was probably hard to follow so I have included screen-shots of what to do. Although the process may vary slightly because we have different printers, the main points will be the same.

Good luck,
