Thank you!!!!!!! I was trying to print 100 party invitations and the envelopes came out with ink smears every time. After your cleaning method, they are coming out perfectly! You saved me $250. :)
You are a genius ❤ my printer does this all over my sublimation paper and i get so irritated. Cleaning the print head never works. This worked like a charm!
My printer was working fine until yesterday when i printed a few regular black in document. Today when i printed color on glossy paper, now Im getting black ink smudges. I checked printer settings were set to glossy paper and high quality. I also tried your suggestions and it didnt help. 😭
Thank you very much. I wish I had seen this before I wasted around $30.00 worth of 13 x 19 paper. I really appreciate this. My problem dried black dust that would smear or wipe off.
Excellent post! I was considering buying a new printer, but fortunately found your YT. I used the paper towel cleaning approach you described - it worked for my Epson XP-7100 :). I did the blotting approach plus moving the print heads back and forth over windex moistened paper towel, which was needed to remove the last bit of smearing in my case.
I haven't tried transparent matte. But if you can see the ink sitting on top of the paper, you can reduce the ink density in the extended settings. Try -3% for ink density.
I want to say to you “ Thank you so much for your video” I was almost going to smash the printer, how frustrated I was. I did the cleaning with the winder, my nails are black but I am so happy. I have a beautiful printing without ink smearing. Thank you so much.
I include how to change it in the video. It depends on your printer. I use Epson so I set my paper type to glossy photo paper and quality is high (but I can get away with using standard, because the print quality is amazing with their photo printers).
@@CraftiqueByRoLLC I am having that same issue with my Ecotank 8550 and I didn't have that issue before. I use Koala inkjet glossy photo paper and have never had an issue until now. I hope someone has a resolve to this problem.

Mine is set to premium presentation but was using plain paper and it smeared
If printing on glossy paper, paper type should be set to photo paper glossy, standard quality.

Hi! Do you have a video on how to print on transparent matte sticker paper? I tried everything and it seems like the ink never dries..
