SUGGESTIONS

Printed pages are blurred at the center

Certain environmental conditions such as humidity, high temperatures,

or at either edge.

etc. may cause this condition to occur. Make sure the machine is placed

 

on a flat, horizontal surface. Remove the drum unit with the toner

 

cartridge installed. Try rocking them from side to side. You may clear a

 

blurred page by wiping the scanner windows with a clean soft cloth. (See

Blurred Page

“Regular Maintenance” and “Cleaning the Drum Unit” in this chapter.) If

a blurred page occurs after cleaning and the display shows CHANGE

 

DRUM SOON, replace the drum unit with a new one.

 

 

Ghost images appear on printed page.

Adjust the print conditions by setting the Print Density function. Make

 

sure that you use paper that meets the specifications. Rough surfaces or

 

thick media can cause a ghost image. Make sure that you select the

 

appropriate media type in the printer driver.

The drum unit is a consumable and it is necessary to replace it periodically to maintain the printing quality.
