Soft edges on 7600

[johnbeta]

Hi need help my images are printing with soft fuzzy edges on both left and right side of images, top and bottom are ok.
Doesn't matter what media , platen gap set to wider, did power clean and cleand heads with wet paper towel, any ideas.

And you are sure that the image has sharp edges on all four sides?
Is it the same problem if you flip the image to the left or right?

Doesn't matter on all images old and new, Ran alignment check and tons of out of focus and fuzzy lines maybe head is shot?

Seems if the images are sharp in the middle but not on the edges it would more likely be the carriage transport mechanism, not the head - although tons of out of focus/fuzzy lines for a head alignment doesn't sound good.

Does it happen if you print unidirectional?

Thanks for the idea Wayne, did it and surprising results, start of print edge now ok but loses definition from middle to left side and ends with unfinished image edge as beforelooks like carriage problem tech coming in tomorrow time to upgrade if more tnan $500 I guess lol
