Symptom Cause Remedy
The copy is dirty. Is the document glass or the
document cover dirty?
Clean the document glass and the document
cover.
Refer to "Cleaning Document Cover and Document
Glass (for Duplex Automatic Document Feeder B1-C)"
(P.89).
Is the document a
transparent type such as a
transparency film?
If the document is transparent, dirt on the
document cover will be copied. Place a white
sheet of paper on top of the document when
copying.
Is the document colored,
rough, or a blueprint?
Adjust the copy density or image quality.
Refer to "3 Copy" > "Image Quality" in the User Guide.
Is the document glossy
printing paper?
Glossy printing paper easily sticks to the
document glass, and shadows are sometimes
copied, soiling the image. Place a
transparency film under the document when
copying.

black lines.

transport glass on the
document feeder dirty?
Clean the constant velocity transport
document glass.
Refer to "Cleaning Film and Constant Velocity Transport
