Static Traces Appear in Low Temperature, Low Humidity Environments
Static trace patterns appear on the images.
Cause
During paper feed, the transfer guide is rubbed by the paper and becomes charged, causing static trace
patterns on the images. Scattered toner or paper dust may also lead to an increase in static charge.
This may occur when:
 Ambient temperature and humidity are low
 Coated paper thinner than Thickness 4 is used
 There is scattered toner or paper dust on the paper transfer entrance guide.
