If a document is printed skewed or partly off the paper, follow the steps listed below.

CHECK 1 Is the paper size loaded in the tray the same as that specified in the printer driver?

Check if the "Paper Size" options suit the size of the paper loaded in the tray.

If the "Fit To Page" setting is activated, make sure that the paper size selected from the drop-down list of the "Fit To Paper Size" option is the same as the size of the loaded paper.

CHECK 2 Is the orientation of document setting correct?

Click the "Paper" tab in the printer driver setup screen, and verify if the "Image Orientation" option is set to your requirements.

CHECK 3 Is the paper loaded correctly?

If a document is physically damaged when it is output or the image is skewed on the paper, discard the damaged sheet, reinsert the paper supply and print again. Insert the paper so that there is no visible space between the paper and the paper guides.

Reference: See "LOADING PAPER" in the Operation Manual for more details on inserting paper.

CHECK 4 Did you correctly specify the margins for the application in use?

Check the layout of the document margins and the paper size settings for the application you are using. Also check if the print settings are specified correctly to suit the paper size.
