        If it has been good previous, it could be the printer paper and quality settings may have changed. When you click print, check what the set up of the printer is ie paper or photo paper, gloss, high gloss or matt, dpi
        Just trying to assist

            I agree with Jack, it's probably the quality of the paper.
