[QUOTE="synical, post: 210457, member: 10694"] Hey all, I've got a brand new IX6860, all colours on it print out consistently and without any problems but for some reason anything that's pure black will come out looking very 'patchy'. Hard to explain but the image I've attached should show it fairly clearly, basically anything black looks pretty awful. So far I've tried: - Heavy matte paper (300gsm, 250gsm) - Normal copy paper (this was actually a little better) - Gloss card/photo paper - Printing straight from Illustrator, and also from an exported PDF - RGB and CMYK profiles - Adjusting colour settings to compensate (no change) The same images print fine on my old HP Officejet 7510, in all the above scenarios other than 300gsm paper which the HP doesn't support. Any thoughts? I had been meaning to replace the black cartridges but seeing as they're new I'd rather not do that unless they're the most likely culprit. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
