Problem

Solution

Nothing appears in the
display.

• Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into a

power outlet.

• Connect another electrical appliance to the outlet to

see if it has power.

The machine does not
respond when you press
any of its keys.

• If a beep sound is not made when you press the keys,

unplug the power cord, wait at least 5 seconds, and
then plug it in again.

Automatic document
feeding does not work .

• Check the size and weight of the document (see page

51).

Printed output is faint.

• The toner cartridge may need replacement (see page

115).

Dots appear at regular
intervals on printed output.

• The drum cartridge may be damaged. Replace the

drum cartridge (see page 117).

Characters or parts of the
image are missing from
printed output.

• Remove the drum cartridge as explained on page 117

and wipe the surface of the drum (the green cylinder)
with a dry cotton swab. If print quality does not
improve after wiping with a dry cotton swab, you can
try moistening the swab with isopropyl alcohol or
ethanol. However, do not moisten the swab with
isopropyl alcohol or ethanol unless absolutely
necessary, as this may cause stains or smears to
appear on the first pages printed after cleaning (the
stains may never completely disappear).
