Copy problems

Prevent copy problems

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

Use quality originals.

Load the media correctly. If the media is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear images and problems with the OCR program. See Load paper and print media on page 35 for instructions.

Use or make a carrier sheet to protect your originals.

NOTE: Verify that the media meets HP specifications. If the media meets HP specifications, recurring feed problems indicate the pickup roller or separation pad is worn. Contact HP. See www.hp.com/ support/LJM1120 or the support flyer that came in the product box.
