10 Troubleshooting
10-20 Xerox Phaser 3200MFP
Background
scatter
Background scatter results from bits of toner randomly
distributed on the printed page.
The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a different
batch of paper. Do not open packages of paper until
necessary so that the paper does not absorb too much
moisture.
If background scatter occurs on an envelope, change the
printing layout to avoid printing over areas that have
overlapping seams on the reverse side. Printing on seams
can cause problems.
If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a
printed page, adjust the print resolution through your
software application or the printer properties.
Misformed
characters
If characters are improperly formed and producing hollow
images, the paper stock may be too slick. Try a different
paper.

If characters are improperly formed and producing a wavy
effect, the scanner unit may need service. For service,
contact a service representative.
