Problem : Ink on the back of printed sheets.

1	Make sure the paper output receiver has been installed correctly.
	(☞ 42)
2	Check the paper output receiver paper guide and make sure that it is
	set to the correct mark for the media you are using.
3	If the printed sheets appear wet due to a large amount of ink, remove
	each sheet from the paper output tray as it is ejected from the printer.
4	Check the software application and driver settings and make sure the
	media size selected for printing matches the size of the media loaded

in the printer.

For example, if you attempt to print an A4-size page on B5 paper, the print heads could run beyond edge of the paper and spray ink on the platen. This stray ink could then stain the backs of other pages as they are fed through the printer.

For a long print job, make sure you have the same type of media loaded in the sheet feeder and the paper cassette.
