Brand new out ofthe box Pixma 1800 is making faded color prints. There is no white lines or breaks on print test. Everything is just weak and faded. Black is good and solid. Colors are there just very faded. Nothing in manual about this. Paper thickness lever is proper to the left. Any ideas? Bad brand new cartridge? Thnx
