Copy quality is unacceptable

This section provides information about the following topics:

●Preventing problems

●Identifying and correcting copy/scan defects

Preventing problems

The following are a few simple steps you can take to improve copy quality:

●Copy from the flatbed scanner. This will produce a higher quality copy than copying from the ADF.

●Use quality originals.

●Load the media correctly. If the media is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear images and problems with the OCR application. See the start guide for instructions.

●Open or close the straight-through output door on the device to accommodate the copy job. If you are copying to standard-weight media, use the output bin (door closed). If you are copying to heavy media, use the straight-through media path (door open).

●If your device frequently feeds more than one page at a time, replace the separation pad. For more information, see Replacing the device separation pad.

●Use or make a carrier sheet to protect your originals.

Note

Recurring feed problems indicate the copier/separation pad is worn. See Ordering HP parts

 

and accessories to order a new separation pad. See Replacing the device separation pad for

 

more information about replacing the separation pad.
