TS8220 not printing on glossy

[VicMar]

Tried to print on glossy paper. Each time the color is totally faded. I tried printing on regular plain paper and it's fine. I have cleaned the print heads, nozzle heads etc. I have added new ink. I have even tried to print from the printer itself with USB drive. Everything I have tried and same results. I run Windows 10 and this just started recently.
