We've tried all sorts of remedies from cleaning the head to new ink tanks to different levels of paper in the bin etc. But, it's getting worse.&nbsp; Has anyone seen anything like this and, better yet, have a solution?&nbsp; Thanks in advance!</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-left" image-alt="IMG_2161.jpg" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/31833iBA51638216B69821/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="IMG_2161.jpg" alt="IMG_2161.jpg" /></span><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-left" image-alt="IMG_2162.jpg" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/31834i3C724B9C11ADF896/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="IMG_2162.jpg" alt="IMG_2162.jpg" /></span></P> Tue, 04 Jan 2022 21:34:09 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Professional-Photo-Printers/Ink-Smudge-in-corners-with-Pro-200/m-p/359463#M12579 Studio52 2022-01-04T21:34:09Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Professional-Photo-Printers/Ink-Smudge-in-corners-with-Pro-200/m-p/359525#M12584 <P>Are you using Canon paper?
