Be sure to choose the correct printer when you choose a printer from your application program’s menu. See Chapter 1.

Use your application software to reduce or eliminate the top margin and to reduce the page length.

If possible, specify single-sheet paper with your application software.

If the printer still does not print correctly, try the self test described in Chapter 1. If the self test works properly, the printer is all right and the problem probably lies in the computer, the software, or the cable. If the self test does not work, contact your dealer or a qualified service person.
