Solution

The printed page is curled or
wavy.

The product is not set to print on the type of
media on which you want to print.

In the printer driver, make sure the
appropriate media type is selected.

If the problem persists, select a media type
that uses a lower fuser temperature, such
as transparencies or light media.

The media might have been in the input tray
too long.

Turn over the stack of media in the tray.
Also, try rotating the media 180° in the input
tray.

The media might not meet HP specifications. Use a different paper, such as high-quality

paper that is intended for laser printers. See

Paper and print media on page 35

cause paper curl.

Check the product environment.

The fuser temperature might be curling the
media.

At the product control panel, turn on the
Less paper curl setting in the Service
menu.

Text or graphics are skewed on
the printed page.

The media might be loaded incorrectly or the
input tray might be too full.
