Re: 1160 - bits of ink on paper edge

It's possible your papers may be slightly curled and you're printing very near the bottom edge of the paper. You can try to either pre-curl the paper (in the opposite direction so the edge curls away from the printhead travel) or just don't print less than 1 inch from the bottom edge.
