Try tearing around the edges of your print to feather them a bit.

Looks like the printer wheels are picking up ink.
I maybe wrong though.

try turning off high speed prints and try a lower print quality.
also run a few blank sheets of paper through the printer to clean off any residual ink. (Print a blank png)
