Smudged print. You are printing on thick paper, but thick paper settings have not been
made.
Select [Thick] in the [Type:] list on the [Paper] tab on the printer driver.
Page layout is not
as expected. Print areas differ depending on the machine used. Information that fits on
a single page on one machine may not fit on a single page on another ma-
chine.
Duplex printing is
not possible. • Duplex printing cannot be done with paper set in the bypass tray. To
use duplex printing, specify a paper tray other than the bypass tray.
• Duplex printing is not possible if thick paper, OHP transparencies, or
label paper is specified as the paper type. Specify another paper type.
• Duplex printing cannot be done using a tray for which [Duplex] is not
selected as the paper type in [Tray Paper Settings] in [System Settings]. Se-
lect [Duplex] as the paper type in [Paper Input]. See General Settings Guide.
When using Win-
dows 98SE / Me
or Windows 2000

bined printing or
booklet print does
not come out as
expected. Make sure the application's paper size and orientation settings match those
of the printer driver.
If a different paper size and orientation are set, select the same size and ori-
entation.

A print instruc-
tion was issued
from the compu-
ter, but printing
did not start. User code management may be set. Ask the administrator about valid user
codes. To print, the user code must be entered from the printer driver.
The print job is not
canceled even
when the machine
is switched to of-
fline status. Select [Printer Priority] for [Signal Control].
See “User Tools (System Settings)”, General Settings Guide.
Photo images are
coarse. Some applications reduce print resolution. Check your application.
Images are cut off,
or excess is print-
ed. You may be using paper smaller than the size selected in the application.
Use the same size paper as that selected in the application. If you cannot
load paper of the correct size, use the reduction function to reduce the im-
age, and then print.
