Hi PaulCropleyHill,

Blurry printing from your PIXMA TR4520 can be caused when the encoder/timing strip is dirty or smudged.

To clean the encoder/timing strip, please follow the steps outlined in the following Knowledgebase Article available from Canon's web site:

Cleaning the Encoder Film - TR4520 / TR4522
