Hey so this hasn't happened before, but when I started printing my first print of the day, those ink blotches on the side of the photo paper happened. Can't be wasting paper and ink like this!!! HELP!!

You do have ink on the rollers. They need to be cleaned. But the queation is how did you do this?
Did you try to print on some other brand of paper that didn't asorb the ink? Always use Canon brand paper until you kown exactly how other papers will take the ink.
I use my photo printers exclusively for photos. I do not print any other "normal" print jobs on them.
BTW, you may need to use a q-tip with denatured alcohol to clean the rollers.
