Is anybody else having a problem with Computaform downloads -mine are smudged and unreadable ......have a new printer and was concerned that it was giving a problem but everything else I test,prints perfectly!
I just need to know if the problem is on their side or some problem with my settings?

Last week I downloaded this week's Tuesday (Turffontein) and Thursday (Vaal) Computaforms - seems fine when looking at the .pdfs on my screen ....do you have problems when printing it, or is it also 'smudged' on the screen ?

When I look at the pages they look fine , but as soon as they print they look like they "move"while printing giving a streaky smudge .......but everything else I print is perfect ......but I'm not very techno so I'm not sure why that could be !!!!
The same set up was printing perfectly till yesterday BUT my machine did Windows 10 updates and it did affect internet connectivity and I had to mess with that to get websites!

(update:tried to print from my laptop (which has no updates)and the same problem-I have to guess its the way they set up on the TAB site!........but dont know how to be sure)

I guess it is some setting on your printer - I printed mine with no problems

you can also try self-cleaning and nozzle unblocking if you have an ink jet... i've had minor problems with win 10 as sometimes my printer won't print and i have open and close a cover on the printer to let it reboot but the print quality remains constant - i use a laser though but with my old ink jet i often had to realign the print head to stop smudging or blurring

Must be ,but have run every test I can find in settings and keeps telling me "no problems detected"
Have now tried 2 different computers using different browsers and get the same result.......the only common denominator therefore is the printer ,which is a brand new Samsung M4070 and printing everything else perfectly!!!!!

(this only developed yesterday .............perfect downloads until then!)

The default PDF Reader maybe changed after the update.

That sounds the most logical explanation ..................what do I do to fix it (I assume that is a software setting and nothing to do with the printer itself)
