I get similar if my inks are low. Could it be that?

Put it on something like FLIKR and then post the link instead.

You could try a head clean as there might be very feint lines in the printed page because a nozzle is blocked..

iv done a nozzle check and looks fine, you can see it as well in the pic as you can in hand, that white bluer is meant to be all black and it streaks down like lines


also just checked the left over paper and where its got the white lines it looks as if the colour has stayed on the paper

Okay, its not the easiest of picture to tell whats going wrong so all I can suggest is to try the following:

First of all, if you have another printer and some good quality paper, print out the same picture to see if it is not the picture that is printing like this.

Also try putting your mug in the blanket the other way round and look to see if you get the same problems in the same place on the mug or the same place on the blanket.

If its the same place on the mug it is pointing to an issue with either the image or the paper/printer

its its the same place on the blanket then it is pointing to an issue with the blanket or the temp and time settings

Try the above and we can then identify where the problem is coming from and try and resolve why.
