The problem is a defect near the start of a print

There is a type of defect that affects only the start of a print, within 5.5 cm of the
leading edge of the paper. You may see a thin or thick band of inconsistent color:

To avoid this problem:
1.

The easiest solution is to select the Extended Margins option in the driver, the
Embedded Web Server, or the front panel. This means that the area of the paper
affected by the problem (at the start of the page) will no longer be printed on. See
“How do I adjust the margins?” on page 132.

2.

Check that you are using appropriate print quality settings. See “How do I choose
print quality settings?” on page 130.

The problem is lines are stepped

If lines in your image appear stepped or jagged when printed:

1.

The problem may be inherent in the image. Try to improve the image with the
application you are using to edit it.

2.

Check that you are using appropriate print quality settings. See “How do I choose
print quality settings?” on page 130.

3.

Turn on the Maximum Detail option.
