When You Cannot Print Clearly
Problem Solution
The whole printout is blurred. • The paper being used may be damp. Use paper that has
been stored properly. See page 62 "Supported Paper".
• Select [Curl Prevented] in [Curl Prevention Mode] under
[System Settings].
• If you enable [Toner Saving] under [System Settings],
printing is generally less dense.
• If you select [On] for [Economy Color] in the [Print
Quality] tab (PCL printer driver) or under [Printer
Features] (PostScript 3 printer driver), print will be at
lower density. For details, see the printer driver Help.
• The print cartridge is almost empty. If "Replacement
Required: Toner Cartridge (X)" ("X" indicates the toner
color) appears on the screen, replace the indicated print
cartridge.
• Condensation may have occurred. If rapid change in
temperature or humidity occurs, use this machine only
after it has acclimatized.
Toner smears appear on the print
side of the page.
• The paper setting may not be correct. For example,
although you are using thick paper, the setting for thick
paper may not be specified.
Check the printer driver's paper settings.
See the printer driver Help.
• Check that the paper is not curled or bent. Envelopes can
be curled easily. Flatten out the paper before loading it.
See page 48 "Loading Paper".
• Set [Fix Quality Improved] in [Fixing Quality Mode]
under [System Settings].
