Image Loss
• When copying a document from a larger paper size to a smaller size, use Auto% to reduce the
image onto the smaller size.
• Use reduction i.e. copy at 90% instead of 100%.
• Use the Auto Center feature and run the job again.
• If scanning from the document glass use Original Size to define the document size, refer to
Original Size in the Copy section. Register the document in the top left corner and copy with the
cover down.
• Do not use heavily embossed paper.
• Check the print settings are correct (especially if you are printing from a PDF document).
• If the image loss is due to wrinkled paper, load fresh paper into the tray.
