Print Quality - Blurred or Fuzzy Print

Blurred of fuzzy print is usually caused by a problem in the main drive gearbox assembly, alignment assembly, any feed roller or in the transfer roll bearings or transfer roll. Check the gearbox assembly for correct operation. Check the transfer roll for binds or a contaminated shaft or bearings.

Blurred print can also be caused by incorrect feeding from one of the input paper sources, paper trays, duplex or envelope feeder.

Check the high voltage contacts to ensure they are not bent, corroded or damaged. Replace as necessary.
