1.4.6 Troubleshooting with Exit Speed Settings
To get to the Exit Speed setting follow the steps below:
If the registration of the print looks as if it is getting pulled out of alignment in the media length
direction, then try lowering the exit speed. This will slow the fuser speed down slightly, which
could stop it from pulling the print. Note your changes to the settings and results as you may
want to go back to original settings.
If your exit speed is set too slow you could have what is know as blousing. Blousing is when the
fusers exit speed is set too slow, this causes the material to wave inside the printer because the
fuser is not taking up material fast enough. If this happens cancel the print job, increase your exit
speed and try again.
1.4.5 Exit Speed Settings
The Exit Speed setting fine tunes the fusing speed of the printer. The user selects a value from
the scale. It is recommended to not go below -15 or higher than +15. The speed adjusts based on
the value the user selected.
To get to the Exit Speed setting follow the steps below:
Press Up on the printer front panel d-pad, this will open the Menu → scroll down to Calibration
→ press Enter → scroll down to Exit Speed Adjust → press Enter → set the Exit Speed → press
Enter → press back or left arrow until you are at main screen.
1.4.4 Troubleshooting with Media Weight Settings
Warning -
If an incompatible media weight is used, it may result in overheating and/or damaging
the internal components of the printer.
Toner Flaking -
If the toner is flaking off your media after it has been printed, this is a sign that
your media weight setting was not heavy enough. Try a heavier setting until the toner is cured to
the media.
Hot Melt -
If the toner has a brownish hue and/or the colors are bleeding into each other, this is a
sign that your media weight is to heavy and is burning the toner. Try a lighter media weight setting
until the image is acceptable.
Registration -
If you are having registration issues, going to a heavier media weight will slow your
print speed down and may improve the registration of your print.
