White Vertical Lines Printing on Every Printout

[DianeJoy]

Every printout has thin white vertical lines evenly spaced across image on the page.  I don't want the vertical lines.  This problem just appeared today, and I have no idea what could have caused it.  I have two different printers - same problem on both. 

I have tried many things, but cannot resolve the problem.  Please - how do I get printouts without any vertical lines?  Thank you.

Sounds like this is a problem with your printer and not Photoshop.  What kind of printer are you sending your prints too?

[DianeJoy]

Canon iP8700 Series; and a Brother MFC-J825W.   I didn't have this vertical line problem on either one until today.

Hmmm, well if its two printers then it may be the source.  Have you tried shutting things down and restarting everything?

It was resolved by resetting the print settings in Photoshop - while in PS, hold down the space bar and then press Ctrl P.  This resets the print settings.  Also, on only the Brother printer, changing the print settings from "normal" to "photo" paper, and from "plain" paper to "inkjet paper" was required.  No setting changes were needed for the Canon printer - "plain" paper, "standard" printing.

This is why the forums are useful, I did not know about that shortcut despite years of use...
