I haven't done much photo printing myself in recent years but recently picked up a new printer at a price too low to resist. I've been meaning to get into it a little anyway so this deal pushed me over the edge.
I had some old 8.5x11 photo paper (glossy HP) and also got a pack of Canon A3+ LU-101 paper bundled. I've printed a few color images and they look good. Both are pretty light colored if that matters.
Last night I decided to print a mono image on the Canon paper and anywhere there is a dark black part, the ink appears to bleed over into the lighter adjoining parts looking almost like watercolor.
I'm just using default settings in LR6 and the printer so I'm hoping I can resolve this via a setting or something. Or maybe the paper isn't suited to this? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Here is my image:

I'm attaching a phone pic of a part of it showing the bleed. LMK what you think. Thanks!
