Background scatter Background scatter results from bits of toner

 

 

 

randomly distributed on the printed page.

 

 

A

The paper may be too damp. Try printing with

 

 

 

a different batch of paper. Do not open

 

 

 

packages of paper until necessary so that the

 

 

 

paper does not absorb too much moisture.

 

 

If background scatter occurs on an envelope,

 

 

 

change the printing layout to avoid printing

 

 

 

 

over areas that have overlapping seams on

 

 

 

 

the reverse side. Printing on seams can cause

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

problems.

If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print resolution through your software application or the printer properties.

Misformed

If characters are improperly formed and

characters

 

producing hollow images, the paper stock may

 

 

 

 

be too slick. Try a different paper. See page

 

 

 

 

5.8.

 

 

 

If characters are improperly formed and

 

 

 

 

producing a wavy effect, the scanner unit may

 

 

 

 

need service. For service, contact a service
