1. Make sure that the environmental specifications for the printer are being met. (See Operating
environment .)
2. If the media is rough, and the toner easily rubs off, open the CONFIGURE DEVICE menu at the
printer control panel. Open the PRINT QUALITY submenu, select FUSER MODES, and then
select the media type you are using. Change the setting to HIGH1 or HIGH2, which helps the
toner fuse more completely onto the media. (See
Print Quality submenu .)
3. Try using a smoother media.
