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 6.3.

Page skew

• Check the paper type and quality. See “Paper

Specifications” on page 6.3.

• 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 6.3.

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

rotating the paper 180° in the input tray.
