1. Go to menu set as default. 2. Do color calibration. 3. Print PQ test pages, observe the colors, chk 4. Print demo page. chk 5. Print from different file/system..
This could be caused by a few different problems with the printer but here are some troubleshooting techniques that may help:
1. Check that the printer is able to print correctly on its own. Print out a configuration page from the printer or install the printer onto a new machine as a local printer and print out a test page. If this prints out as symbols, the problem is a most likely hardware error and the printer will need to be serviced. Try step 2 before servicing. If the printer prints normal characters, go to step 3.
2. Carefully go through the settings on the printer and review the
printer's configuration page to make sure everything has the correct
settings and nothing was changed accidentally.
3. The most common problem is that the drivers on the print server, or on the server computer, have become corrupted. In Printers and Faxes on the print server, delete all the drivers for the printer, reinstall them, and then add the printer again. Make sure to print a test page at the end of the add printer wizard.
4. It could be a problem with the ethernet cable so try swapping the current ethernet cable with a new one.
5. If it is still printing symbols at this point, it is most likely a hardware issue and the printer will need to be serviced.

I've had the same problem with my MP630, and have tried everything to fix it - still not working properly. I've washed the print head, changed settings, changed printer drivers, upped the cyan on my preferences, but still get poor quality blue, which in turn skews all other colours. Can anyone help???
