The paper might not meet Hewlett-Packard paper specifications (for example, the paper is

too moist or too rough). For more information, see Paper specifications on page 168.

Check the settings

The quality setting of Fast (which produces draft-quality copies) might be responsible for

the missing or faded documents. Change to the Normal or Best setting.

Check the original

The accuracy of the copy depends on the quality and size of the original. Use the Copy

menu to adjust the brightness of the copy. If the original is too light, the copy might not be

able to compensate, even if you adjust the contrast.

Colored backgrounds might cause images in the foreground to blend into the background,

or the background might appear in a different shade.

If you are copying a borderless original, load the original on the scanner glass, not the ADF.

For more information, see Load an original on the scanner glass on page 14.

If you are copying a photo, be sure to load it on the scanner glass as indicated by the icon

on the scan bed.

Size is reduced

The reduce/enlarge or other copy feature might have been set from the printer control panel to

reduce the scanned image. Check the settings for the copy job to make sure that they are for

normal size.

The HP software settings might be set to reduce the scanned image. Change the settings, if

needed. For more information, see the on-screen Help for the HP software.

The dirty scanner glass might reduce the scanned image. Clean the scanner glass or lid

backing. For more information, see Maintain the printer on page 22.

Copy quality is poor

Take steps to improve the copy quality

Use quality originals.

Load the paper correctly. If the paper is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear

images. For more information, see Paper specifications on page 168.

Use or make a carrier sheet to protect your originals.

Check the printer

The scanner lid might not be closed correctly.

The scanner glass or lid backing might need cleaning. For more information, see Maintain

the printer on page 22.

The automatic document feeder (ADF) might need cleaning. For more information, see

Maintain the printer on page 22.

Print a Print Quality Diagnostic Page and follow the instruction on the page to resolve poor

quality copy problems. For more information, see Print quality troubleshooting on page 106.
