• Make sure to use the recommended print media (see media types and sizes in the
User’s Reference).
• Use MarkVision™ Professional to define the custom type setting for media type, media
texture, or media weight.
• The toner cartridge or PC Kit may be defective. Replace the PC Kit first and recheck.
Blurred characters
Blurred images, including characters, are usually caused by a defective printhead.
Vertical white lines
See “Vertical streaks below.
Vertical white lines may be caused by the laser beam, which may be partially blocked. With
the printer off, clear the path or clean the lens. The toner cartridge or fuser may be defective.
Try a different toner cartridge. Inspect the fuser at its entry for debris.
Toner smudges
appear on the front or
back of the page.
