Image-defect examples
The MFP output quality is subject to user judgment. This section of the manual helps define print-
quality defects and the factors that affect print quality.
The print samples that are shown in the following figures illustrate some print-quality defects. To use
for future reference, HP suggests that you keep copies of print-quality defects that you encounter in
the field and note the explanation of their causes.
NOTE When troubleshooting image defects, try scanning a test page through the ADF and
from the scanner glass to help isolate the cause of the problem to the ADF, the scanner, or
the print engine.
