We use a Canon MG5300 printer that uses 226 series ink cartridges. Yesterday DW printed a color photo on Moab by Legion paper. The ink stayed on top of the paper, ran a bit and never did dry even over night.
The coach was stored in Livingston TX Dec 22 to Jan 6 with thermostat set to 45 deg to protect the water lines. Since then we have been gone during the day a couple of times with the coach closed up and no AC on (no pets) and came back to internal temperatures in the 90's.
Since she has printed on this paper with this printer in the past, we are wondering if exposing the cartridges to temperature extremes in the coach may have changed its characteristics.
These hardly seem like extremes that should damage the ink although it is hard to find the storage specs anyplace. DW does not have Canon brand paper on board to experiment with.
Has anyone had this experience?
you put the photo paper in upside down. common mistake.
Bingo, we have a winner.
