Tips for Avoiding Paper Jams

By selecting the correct paper types, most paper jams can be

avoided. If a paper jam occurs, follow the steps outlined in
“Clearing Paper Jams” on page 7.4.

• Follow the procedures on page 4.2. Ensure that the

adjustable guides are positioned correctly.

• Do not overload the paper tray.

• Do not remove the paper from the tray while printing.

• Flex, fan, and straighten the paper before loading.

• Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.

• Do not mix paper types in a tray.

• Use only recommended print materials. See “Paper

Specifications” on page 10.1.

• Ensure that the recommended print side of print materials is

facing up in the paper tray and facing down in the Multi-
purpose Tray.

Solving Print Quality Problems

Dirt inside of the printer or improper paper loading may reduce
print quality. See the table below to troubleshoot problems.

Problem

Solution

Light or faded

print

If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the
page:
• The toner supply is low. You may be able to

temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. See
“Redistributing Toner” on page 6.2. If this does not
improve print quality, install a new toner cartridge.

• The paper may not meet paper specifications (for

example, the paper is too moist or too rough). See
“Paper Specifications” on page 10.1.

• A combination of faded or smeared defects may

indicate that the printer needs cleaning. See
page 6.8.

Toner specks

The paper may not meet specifications (for example,

the paper is too moist or too rough). See “Paper
Specifications” on page 10.1.

Dropouts

If generally rounded, faded areas occur randomly on
the page:
• A single sheet of paper may be defective. Try

reprinting the job.

• The moisture content of the paper is uneven or the

paper has moist spots on its surface. Try a different
brand of paper. See “Paper Specifications” on

page 10.1.

• The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing process

can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different

kind or brand of paper.

• The toner cartridge may be defective. See “Vertical

repetitive defects” on the next column.

• If these steps do not correct the problems, contact

a service representative.
