Troubleshooting

If a document is printed skewed or partly off the paper, follow the steps listed below.

CHECK1 Is the paper size loaded in the tray the same as that specified in the printer driver?

Click the "Paper" tab in the properties dialog box, and check if the "Paper Size" options suit the size of the paper loaded in the tray. If the "Fit To Page" setting is activated, make sure that the paper size selected from the drop-down list of the "Print xxx on:" option is the same to the size of the loaded paper.

Example "Print Letter on:" Index card 5" x 8"

CHECK4 Is the paper loaded correctly?

If a document is physically damaged as it is output or the image is skewed on the paper discard the jammed sheet, reinsert the paper supply and print again. Insert the paper so that there is no visible space between the paper and the paper guides.

Reference:See "LOADING PAPER" in the Setup Guide and Operation Manual for more details on inserting paper.

CHECK2 Is the orientation of document setting correct?

Click the "Main" tab in the properties dialog box, and verify if the "Orientation" option is set to your requirements.

CHECK3 Did you correctly select the desired value for "N-Up Printing"?

Confirm the selected value for "Original Size" when "2-Up" or "4-Up" has been selected for "N-Up Printing". If you have selected a smaller paper size than the document size of your application, the image outside the printable area is not printed.

CHECK5 Did you correctly specify the margins for the application in use?

Check the layout of the document margins and the paper size settings for the application you are using. Also check if the print settings are specified correctly to suit the paper size.
