Troubleshooting and routine maintenance

Paper handling difficulties (continued)

 

 

Difficulties

Suggestions

How do I print on envelopes?

You can load envelopes from the MP tray. Your application must be set up to print

 

the envelope size you are using. This is usually done in the Page Setup or

 

Document Setup menu of your application. (See your application’s manual for

 

more information.)

 

 

What paper can I use?

You can use thin paper, plain paper, thick paper, bond paper, recycled paper,

 

envelopes, labels and transparencies that are made for laser machines. (For

 

details, see Acceptable paper and other print media on page 14.)

 

 

There is a paper jam.

(See Paper jams on page 80.)

 

 

Print quality difficulties

 

 

 

Difficulties

Suggestions

Printed pages are curled.

„ Low quality thin or thick paper or not printing on the recommended side of the

 

paper could cause this problem. Try turning over the stack of paper in the

 

paper tray.

 

„ Make sure that you choose the Paper Type that suits the print media type you

 

are using. (See Acceptable paper and other print media on page 14.)

 

 

Printed pages are smeared.

The Paper Type setting may be incorrect for the type of print media you are using,

 

or the print media may be too thick or have a rough surface. (See Acceptable

 

paper and other print media on page 14 and Basic tab in the Software User’s

 

Guide on the CD-ROM.)

 

 

Printouts are too light.

„ If this problem occurs when making copies, set Toner Save mode to Off in the

 

machine menu settings. (See Toner Save on page 24.)

 

„ Set Toner Save mode to Off in the Advanced tab in the printer driver. (See

 

Advanced tab in the Software User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.)

 

 

Network difficulties

 

DifficultiesSuggestions

C

Cannot print over a wired Network. If you are having Network problems see the Network User's Guide on the CD-ROM for more information.

Make sure your machine is powered on and is on-line and in the Ready mode. Print the Network Configuration list to see your current Network settings. (See Network Configuration List on page 26.) Reconnect the LAN cable to the hub to verify that the cable and network connections are good. If possible, try connecting the machine to a different port on your hub using a different cable. If the connections are good, the lower LED of the back panel of the machine will be green.
