Reduce the photo size. If you increase the photo size in the software application, the
resolution will be reduced.
Before printing, the
machine emits vapor near
the output tray.
Using damp/wet paper can cause vapor [white
smoke] during printing.
This is not a problem. Just keep printing. If you are bothered by the smoke [vapor], then
replace the paper with fresh paper from an unopened ream.
It will take longer to print when you print a PDF file as an image.

Printing problems
Condition
Possible cause
Suggested solutions
The machine does not
print custom-sized paper,
such as billing paper.
Paper size and paper size setting do not match.
Set the correct paper size in the Custom in Paper tab in Printing Preferences (see
"Opening printing preferences" on page 51).
The printed billing paper
is curled.
The paper type setting does not match.
Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click Paper tab,
and set type to Thin (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 51).
6. Troubleshooting
261
Printing quality problems
If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, there
might be a reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the problem.
Condition
Light or faded print
Suggested solutions
• If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page, the toner supply is low. Install a new toner cartridge (see "Replacing the
toner cartridge" on page 70).
• The paper may not meet paper specifications; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough.
• If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low or the toner save mode is on. Adjust the print resolution and turn
the toner save mode off. See the help screen of the printer driver.
• A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. Clean the inside of your machine
(see "Cleaning the machine" on page 82).
• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page
82). If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
The top half of the paper is
printed lighter than the rest of
the paper
The toner might not adhere properly to this type of paper.
• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set the paper type to Recycled (see
"Opening printing preferences" on page 51).

• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set type to Thick (see "Opening
printing preferences" on page 51).
If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
White Spots
If white spots appear on the page:
• The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from paper falls to the inner components within the machine, so the transfer roller may be
dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 82).
• The paper path may need cleaning. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 82).
If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
6. Troubleshooting
263
Printing quality problems
Condition
Vertical lines
Suggested solutions
If black vertical streaks appear on the page:
• The surface (drum part) of the cartridge inside the machine has probably been scratched. Remove the cartridge and install a new
one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 70, "Replacing the imaging unit" on page 73).
If white vertical streaks appear on the page:
• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page
82). If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
Black or color background
If the amount of background shading becomes unacceptable:
• Change to a lighter weight paper.
• Check the environmental conditions: very dry conditions or a high level of humidity (higher than 80% RH) can increase the amount
of background shading.
• Remove the old toner cartridge and install a new one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 70).
• Thoroughly redistribute the toner (see "Redistributing toner" on page 68).
Toner smear
• Clean the inside of the machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 82).
• Check the paper type and quality.
• Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 70).
6. Troubleshooting
264
Printing quality problems
Condition
Vertical repetitive defects
Suggested solutions
If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even intervals:
• The toner cartridge may be damaged. If you still have the same problem, remove the toner cartridge and, install a new one (see
"Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 70).
• Parts of the machine may have toner on them. If the defects occur on the back of the page, the problem will likely correct itself after
a few more pages.
• The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service representative.
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.
Or select Thick from the Printing Preferences window (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 51).
• If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print resolution through your software application
or in Printing Preferences (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 51). Ensure the correct paper type is selected. For example:
If Thicker Paper is selected, but Plain Paper actually used, an overcharging can occur causing this copy quality problem.
• If you are using a new toner cartridge, redistribute the toner first (see "Redistributing toner" on page 68).
Toner particles are around bold
characters or pictures
The toner might not adhere properly to this type of paper.
• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences, click the Paper tab, and set the paper type to Recycled (see
"Opening printing preferences" on page 51).
• Ensure the correct paper type is selected. For example: If Thicker Paper is selected, but Plain Paper actually used, an overcharging
can occur causing this copy quality problem.

If the problem persists, the machine may require repair. Contact a service representative.
Character voids
Character voids are white areas within parts of characters that should be solid black:
• You may be printing on the wrong surface of the paper. Remove the paper and turn it around.
Horizontal stripes
• The paper may not meet paper specifications.
If horizontally aligned black streaks or smears appear:
• The toner cartridge may be installed improperly. Remove the cartridge and reinsert it.

6. Troubleshooting
271
Operating system problems
Common Linux problems
condition
The machine does not print.
Suggested solutions
• Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open Unified Driver Configurator and switch to the Printers tab
in Printers configuration window to look at the list of available machines. Make sure that your machine is displayed
on the list. If not, open Add new printer wizard to set up your device.
• Check if the machine is started. Open Printers configuration and select your machine on the printers list. Look at the
description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains Stopped string, press the Start button. After that normal
operation of the machine should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing
occurred.
• Check if your application has special print option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter,
then remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select “print” -> “Setup printer” and edit command line parameter
in the command item.
I encounter error “Cannot open port
device file” when printing a document.
Avoid changing print job parameters (via LPR GUI, for example) while a print job is in progress. Known versions of CUPS
(Common UNIX Printing System) server break the print job whenever print options are changed and then try to restart the
job from the beginning. Since Unified Linux Driver locks the port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps
the port locked and unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurs, try to release the port by selecting
Release port in Port configuration window.
When printing a document over the
network in SuSE 9.2, the printer does not
print.
The CUPS (Common UNIX Printing System) version distributed with SuSE Linux 9.2 (cups-1.1.21) has a problem with ipp
(Internet Printing Protocol) printing. Use the socket printing instead of ipp or install later version of CUPS (Common UNIX
Printing System) (cups-1.1.22 or higher).
Refer to the Linux User’s Guide that came with your computer for further information on Linux error messages.
6. Troubleshooting

Operating system problems
Common PostScript problems
The following situations are PS language specific and may occur when several printer languages are used.
Problem
The PostScript file cannot be
printed
Possible cause
The PostScript driver may not be installed
correctly.
Solution
• Install the PostScript driver (see "Software Installation" on page 133).
• Print a configuration page and verify that the PS version is available for
printing.
• If the problem persists, contact a service representative.
Limit Check Error report prints
The print job was too complex.
You might need to reduce the complexity of the page or install more memory.
A PostScript error page prints
The print job may not be PostScript.
Make sure that the print job is a PostScript job. Check to see whether the software
application expected a setup or PostScript header file to be sent to the machine.
The optional tray is not
selected in the driver
The printer driver has not been configured to
recognize the optional tray.
Open the driver properties, select the Device Options tab, and set the tray option
(see "Setting Device Options" on page 76).

understanding the terminologies commonly used with printing as well as
mentioned in this user’s guide.
802.11
802.11 is a set of standards for wireless local area network (WLAN)
communication, developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE
802).
802.11b/g/n
802.11b/g/n can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band. 802.11b
supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, 802.11n supports bandwidth up to 150
Mbps. 802.11b/g/n devices may occasionally suffer interference from
microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and Bluetooth devices.
An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a scanning unit that will automatically
feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan some amount of the
paper at once.
AppleTalk
AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc for
computer networking. It was included in the original Mac (1984) and is now
deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.
BIT Depth
A computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to represent the
color of a single pixel in a bitmapped image. Higher color depth gives a broader
range of distinct colors. As the number of bits increases, the number of possible
colors becomes impractically large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly
called as monochrome or black and white.
Access point
Access Point or Wireless Access Point (AP or WAP) is a device that connects
wireless communication devices together on wireless local area networks
(WLAN), and acts as a central transmitter and receiver of WLAN radio signals.
BMP

BOOTP
Coverage
Bootstrap Protocol. A network protocol used by a network client to obtain its IP
address automatically. This is usually done in the bootstrap process of
computers or operating systems running on them. The BOOTP servers assign
the IP address from a pool of addresses to each client. BOOTP enables 'diskless
workstation' computers to obtain an IP address prior to loading any advanced
operating system.
It is the printing term used for a toner usage measurement on printing. For
example, 5% coverage means that an A4 sided paper has about 5% image or text
on it. So, if the paper or original has complicated images or lots of text on it, the
coverage will be higher and at the same time, a toner usage will be as much as
the coverage.
CSV
CCD
Charge Coupled Device (CCD) is a hardware which enables the scan job. CCD
Locking mechanism is also used to hold the CCD module to prevent any damage
when you move the machine.
Comma Separated Values (CSV). A type of file format, CSV is used to exchange
data between disparate applications. The file format, as it is used in Microsoft
Excel, has become a de facto standard throughout the industry, even among
non-Microsoft platforms.
Collation
DADF
Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collation is
selected, the device prints an entire set before printing additional copies.
A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a scanning unit that will
automatically feed and turn over an original sheet of paper so that the machine
can scan on both sides of the paper.
Control Panel
Default
A control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or monitoring
instruments are displayed. They are typically found in front of the machine.
The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its box state,
reset, or initialized.

DHCP
DPI
A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server networking
protocol. A DHCP server provides configuration parameters specific to the DHCP
client host requesting, generally, information required by the client host to
participate on an IP network. DHCP also provides a mechanism for allocation of
IP addresses to client hosts.
Dots Per Inch (DPI) is a measurement of resolution that is used for scanning and
printing. Generally, higher DPI results in a higher resolution, more visible detail
in the image, and a larger file size.
DIMM

The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a standard that allows devices on
a home network to share information with each other across the network.
A mechanism that will automatically turn over a sheet of paper so that the
machine can print (or scan) on both sides of the paper. A printer equipped with
a Duplex Unit can print on both sides of paper during one print cycle.
DNS
Duty Cycle
The Domain Name Server (DNS) is a system that stores information associated
with domain names in a distributed database on networks, such as the Internet.
Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer performance for a
month. Generally the printer has the lifespan limitation such as pages per year.
The lifespan means the average capacity of print-outs, usually within the
warranty period. For example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 pages per month
assuming 20 working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages a day.
Dot Matrix Printer
A dot matrix printer refers to a type of computer printer with a print head that
runs back and forth on the page and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked
cloth ribbon against the paper, much like a typewriter.

A suite of protocols developed by Apple Computer for computer networking. It
was included in the original Mac (1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor
of TCP/IP networking.
Emulation
FDI
Emulation is a technique of one machine obtaining the same results as another.
Foreign Device Interface (FDI) is a card installed inside the machine to allow a
third party device such as a coin operated device or a card reader. Those devices
allow the pay-for-print service on your machine.
An emulator duplicates the functions of one system with a different system, so
that the second system behaves like the first system. Emulation focuses on exact
reproduction of external behavior, which is in contrast to simulation, which
concerns an abstract model of the system being simulated, often considering its
internal state.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area
networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical layer, and frame
formats and protocols for the media access control (MAC)/data link layer of the
OSI model. Ethernet is mostly standardized as IEEE 802.3. It has become the most
widespread LAN technology in use during the 1990s to the present.
FTP
A File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a commonly used protocol for exchanging files
over any network that supports the TCP/IP protocol (such as the Internet or an
intranet).
Fuser Unit
The part of a laser printer that fuses the toner onto the print media. It consists of
a heat roller and a pressure roller. After toner is transferred onto the paper, the
fuser unit applies heat and pressure to ensure that the toner stays on the paper
permanently, which is why paper is warm when it comes out of a laser printer.
