Paper comes out completely black.

Cause

The drum in the drum cartridge has deteriorated.

Remedy

Replace the drum cartridge with new one. (See "Replacing the Drum
Cartridge," on p. 5-17.)

Toner does not fix onto paper completely.

Cause 1

Paper is inappropriate.

Remedy

Replace the paper with paper that can be used with this printer. (See "Paper
Requirements," on p. 2-2.)

Cause 2

Coarse paper is being used.

Remedy 1 Change the [Paper Type] in the printer driver to [Heavy Paper].

Open the [Paper Source] sheet to change the [Paper Type] setting.

Remedy 2 Set the [Special Print Mode] in the printer driver to [Special Settings 5]. If this

solves the problem, set the [Special Print Mode] back to [Off].
Update the [Special Print Mode] in the [Finishing Details] dialog box by clicking
[Finishing Details] in the [Finishing] sheet.

IMPORTANT

If none of the above actions solve the problem, the fuser unit is probably at the end of its
life. It is recommended that you replace the fuser unit. The life of the fuser unit when
printing A4 is approximately 50,000 pages.

Colored lines and text come out faint.

Cause

Remedy

Check [Prioritize Printing of Colored Lines and Text] in the printer driver.
Update [Prioritize Printing of Colored Lines and Text] in the [Details Settings]
dialog box by clicking [Details] in the [Quality] sheet.

Colored text appears to be blurred.

Cause

A bold font is being used for the colored text.

Remedy

Select [Perceptual [Monitor Color Matched]] for [Matching Method] in the printer
driver.
Specify [Matching Method] in the [Matching] sheet by checking [Manual Color
Settings] in the [Quality] sheet and clicking [Color Settings].
