This can be done as follows:
1.
First choose File and Print
2.
Click Advanced at the bottom. Tick ON Print as Image and change from 600 dpi to 300 dpi
3.
From the Print menu, choose Printer Properties
4.
Then click on the tab Paper / Quality and choose Advanced
5.
In Printer Features - Graphic Mode - choose Raster
apart from that clean the printhead or try to change the ink cartridge for help.
You may need to align ink cartridges when characters are not properly formed or are not aligned at the left margin, or when vertical or straight lines appear wavy.
Ink Cartridge Maintenance
To align the ink cartridges:
1 Load plain paper.
2 Click Start?Programs or All Programs?Dell Printers?Dell Photo AIO Printer 922?Dell Printer Solution Center.
3 Click the Maintenance tab
4 Click Align to fix blurry edges.
5 Click Print.
The ink cartridges align when the page prints.
If you have already tried the above, you may need to do this part:
To clean the ink cartridge nozzles:
1 Load plain paper.
2 Click Start?Programs or All Programs?Dell Printers?Dell Photo AIO Printer 922?Dell Printer Solution Center.
3 Click the Maintenance tab.
4 Click Clean to fix horizontal streaks.
5 Click Print.
When the page prints it forces ink through the clogged nozzles to clean them.
6 Print your document again to verify the improved print quality.
7 If you are not satisfied with the print quality, wipe the ink cartridge nozzles with a q-tip, and then print your document again.
If neither of these fix it, then you have a larger hardware problem going on here.... You will either need to contact Dell about repairs / replacement (I recommend you do this if it's still within the warranty period, if you are unsure please call them and find out at 1-800-624-9897)
If it is definitely out of warranty, and neither of those fix it, I would suggest an inexpensive replacement printer (that is better actually anyways) such as:
