That said, I now firmly beliieve paper is the problem. On the plastic wrap inside the outer plastic packaging, I read EU ONLY adjacent an image of an X-ed out trash can and Made in Japan. It has a holographic sticker in the upper right.
I have a yellow, CLI-42Y, still in the box. I just want black to be black, the way it was years ago. I'm quite exclusively printing on matte paper to avoid distracting shine. Is there any other MATTE paper I can get that should allow me to rule out the brands I've been buying? I print on standard letter size and 13 by 19. I ask because I got a counterfeit toner cartridge that looked legit, so perhaps it is a problem more pervasive than I'd like to think. Maybe the inks I'm buying are actually counterfeit? I have been buying ink through Amazon and Best Buy. I had been buying what I thought was NOS Matte Photo Supreme, but perhaps it is fake? I know that Staples has recently replaced the old Photo Supreme papers with a cheaper alternative, and I do not buy that new junk. I have old prints on Staples Matte Photo Supreme on which the blacks are pitch black and beautiful.įor some time (months or years), I've experienced all blacks printing out as a dark grey, never pitch black, on what should be the same paper
