Print quality is very low

[norfdog]

I am trying to print a file in GIMP that has a bunch of tiny details. When I try to print, the tiny details don't get printed and the final result looks nothing like what my print preview shows. I have tried switching the print quality to Best, and it made the quality WORSE. My ink levels are normal. I tried using the built in Cartridge Cleaner and realigned the printer. I had an Alignment Unsuccessful message the first time I tried to realign, then after trying again I did not receive the error, but my print quality is still bad. I have tried exporting the file I want to print as a PDF to attempt printing outside of GIMP, and the issue persists. I am not sure why it is acting weird all of a sudden; the printer never has issues printing small projects like emails and invoices. Thank you for any help.
