After replacing a color print car-
tridge, colorless dots appear in
solid color printouts.
Change the paper type currently selected in the Paper Type
settings, and then print.
Eg. "Plain & Recycled" ⇒ "Recycled", "Recycled" ⇒ "Plain 1".
See p.61 “Specifying a paper type for tray 1 and the optional
paper feed unit” or p.65 “Specifying custom size paper for
the bypass tray”.
Speckling occurs in areas of sol-
id black print.
Select [CMY + K] for [Gray Reproduction (Text/Line Art):] in the
printer driver's dialog box.
See the printer driver Help.
Paper is not fed from the select-
ed tray.
• When you are using a Windows operating system, the
printer driver settings override those set using the control
panel. Set the desired input tray using the printer driver.
See the printer driver Help.
A printed image is different
from the image on the compu-
ter's display.
• When you use some functions, such as enlargement and
reduction, the layout of the image might be different from
that displayed in the computer display.
It takes too much time to resume
printing.
• The data is so large or complex that it takes time to proc-
ess it. If the Ready indicator is blinking, the data is being
processed. Just wait until it resumes.
• The printer was in the Energy Saver mode. To resume
from the Energy Saver mode, the printer has to warm up,
and this takes time until printing starts. To disable Ener-
gy Saver mode:
Press the {Menu} key on the control panel, select [Sys-
tem], and then press the {#Enter} key.
Press the {T} or {U} key, and then select [Energy Saver
2].
Press the {T} or {U} key, and then select [Off].
It takes too much time to com-
plete the print job.
• Photographs and other data intensive pages take a long
time for the printer to process, so simply wait when print-
ing such data.
Changing the settings with printer driver may help to
speed up printing.
See the printer driver Help.
• The data is so large or complex that takes time to process.
If the Ready indicator is blinking, the data is being proc-
essed. Just wait until it resumes.
•If the Ready indicator on the control panel is flashing, the
printer is warming up. Wait for a while.
• The printer is adjusting the color registration. Wait for a
while.
Images are cut off, or excess
pages are printed.
If you are using paper smaller than the paper size selected in
the application, use the same size paper as that selected in the
application. If you cannot load paper of the correct size, use
the reduction function to reduce the image, and then print.
See the printer driver Help.
