Printing Problems
A TRAY, FINISHER, OR OTHER PERIPHERAL 
DEVICE INSTALLED ON THE MACHINE CANNOT 
BE USED
Check Solution
Have the peripheral devices that are 
installed on the machine been 
configured with the printer driver?
■ Open the printer properties dialog box and click [Auto Configuration] on the 
[Options] tab. (Windows) 
If auto configuration cannot be executed, see the Software Setup Guide.
THE IMAGE IS GRAINY
Check Solution
Are the printer driver settings 
appropriate for the print job?
■ Check the settings of the printer driver. 
When selecting print settings, select a print mode from [600dpi], [600dpi (High 
Quality)], or [1200dpi]
*
. When you need a very clear image, select [1200dpi]*.
Windows: The resolution setting is selected in the [Image Quality] tab of the 
printer driver properties window.
* On the MX-M2651/MX-M3051/MX-M3551/MX-M4051/MX-M5051/MX-M6051, 
"1200 dpi" can not be used.
THE IMAGE IS TOO LIGHT OR TOO DARK
Check Solution
Is the overall print density too light? ■ Use the setting below to change the overall print density. 
Select "Settings (administrator)" - [System Settings] → [Image Quality Adjustment] → 
[Print Image Quality] → [Quick Image Quality Adjustment]. Set default setting [2] to [3 
(Sharp)] to increase the overall density, or [1 (Smooth)] to decrease the overall density.
Does the image (particularly a photo) 
need correction? 
(Windows)
■ Check the settings of the printer driver. 
Correct brightness and contrast with [Image Quality] on the [Color Adjustment] 
tab of the printer driver.  Use these settings to make simple corrections in a case 
such as when image editing software is not installed on your computer.
