Problem

Possible Cause and Remedy

Vertical repetitive defects

If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at

 

even intervals:

AaBbCc

• The toner cartridge may be damaged. Print a cleaning

sheet several times by cleaning the OPC drum (see page

AaBbCc

5.2). After the printout, if you still have the same

AaBbCc

problems, install a new toner cartridge.

• Parts in the machine may have toner on them. If the

 

 

defects occur on the back of the page, the problem will

 

likely correct itself after a few more pages.

The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service representative.

Background scatter

Background scatter results from bits of toner distributed on

 

 

 

 

the printed page.

 

 

 

 

• The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a different

 

 

A

 

 

 

 

 

batch of paper. Do not open packages of paper until

 

 

 

 

necessary so that the paper does not absorb too much

 

 

 

 

moisture from the air.

 

 

 

 

• If background scatter occurs on an envelope, change your

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

printing layout to avoid printing over areas that have

 

 

 

 

 

overlapping seams on the reverse side. Printing on seams

 

 

 

 

 

can cause this problem.

 

 

 

 

• If background scatter covers the entire surface of a printed

 

 

 

 

 

page, adjust the print resolution through your software

 

 

 

 

 

application or the printer properties.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Misformed characters

If characters are improperly formed, producing hollow

 

 

 

 

 

images, the paper stock may be too slick. Try a different

 

 

 

 

 

paper. See “Paper Type and Size” for faxing on page 1.17

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and “Selecting Print Media” for PC printing on page 4.1.

 

 

 

 

If characters are improperly formed, producing a wavy

 

 

 

 

 

effect, the scanner unit may need service. Verify that it also

 

 

 

 

 

occurs on a demo page.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Press Demo (*) on the front panel when the machine is

 

 

 

 

 

ready.

 

 

 

 

 

If you need service, contact a service representative.
