User Check
• This problem may occur with noise which is caused by dirt on the
corona wire in the drum unit. In this case, clean the corona wire.
• If the same problem occurs after printing a few pages, the adhesive
of the label or the like, paper powder or dirt may be attached on the
surface of the exposure drum. Wipe off the dirt on the exposure
drum. (Refer to User’s guide, and perform the Drum Cleaning.)
• Replace the drum unit with a new one.
• Replace the toner cartridge with a new one.
Step Cause Remedy
1 Dirt in the paper feed system Wipe dirt off.
2 Dirt on the heat roller Clean the heat roller in the following procedures.
3 Scratch on the heat roller Replace the fuser unit.
CAUTION :
• If the machine prints the same pattern, especially including vertical streaks,
continuously, black vertical streaks may appear on the paper since the electrostatic
performance of the exposure drum is decreased temporally.
