Solution
Possible call or complaint
1. B Paper
feeding
Paper jam
Paper edge creasing
- Plain paper (soft paper)
- When about 30 sheets are
loaded.
- Paper condition (curled, or cut
edge orientation)
Depending on combination of the
above conditions, the first several
pages may not feed properly.
When many sheets of paper are
set, paper feed capability can be
slightly lowered.
Reduce the number of sheets to set on
the sheet feeder, to below the reference
mark.
- Paper jam
- Paper edge creasing
- Paper edge smeared
(due to contact with the
print head)
- Carriage error (service
call error) due to contact
of the print head to the
jammed paper
2. B Print speed Low throughput (approx.
1/2) in direct printing
from a digital camera
When the print head alignment has
never been performed via the
computer before direct camera
printing.
Because uni-directional printing is
performed to maintain the print
quality by avoiding possible
inaccurate dot placement in
bidirectional printing.
Connect the printer to the computer, and
perform the print head alignment. (The
print head alignment is available only
via the computer.)
- Print speed is low when
printing directly from a
digital camera.
3 C Installation,
Printing
No infrared
communication
When the printer is connected to a
certain computer (eg. NEC,
Windows 98) which does not
support Plug & Play infrared
communication.
With default settings, the Plug &
Play function is enabled.
Disable the Plug & Play function, and
set the port manually.
For how to disable/enable Plug & Play
infrared communication, see the PIXUS
50i / i70 Service Manual, page 2-1, New
Technologies, (3).
- Infrared communication
is not available.
* Occurrence level:
A: The symptom is likely to occur frequently.
B: The symptom may occur under certain conditions, but likeliness is assumed very low in practical usage.
C: The symptom is unlikely to be recognized by the user, and no practical issues are assumed.
