Background

scatter

Background scatter results from bits of toner 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. See “Paper Specifications” on page 7.30.

• If characters are improperly formed and producing a wavy

effect, the scanner unit may need service. Verify that it
also occurs on a demo page by pressing the Cancel
button on the control panel when the printer is ready. For
service, contact a service representative.

Page skew

• Check the paper type and quality. See “Paper

Specifications” on page 7.30.

• Ensure that the paper or other material is loaded correctly

and the guides are not too tight or too loose against the
paper stack.

Curl or wave

• Check the paper type and quality. Both high temperature

and humidity can cause paper curl. See “Paper
Specifications” on page 7.30.

• Turn over the stack of paper in the input tray. Also try

rotating the paper 180° in the input tray.

• Push the output lever and try printing to the face up

output slot.
