Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
Copies are dirty. Is the document glass or
the document cover
dirty? Clean the document glass or the document
cover.
Refer to "Cleaning Document Cover and
Document Glass" (P.144).
Is the document a
transparent type such as
a transparency medium? When copying highly translucent documents,
dirt on the document cover shows up in the
copy. Place a sheet of white paper over the
document before copying.
Is the document on
colored or rough paper,
or a blueprint? Adjust the copy density or remove the
background paper color before copying.
Refer to "Lighten/Darken" (P.94).
Is the document on
glossy printing paper? Glossy printing paper easily sticks to the
document glass, and shadows can resemble
dirt in the copy. Place a transparency or
transparent film under the document before
copying.
Black lines
appear in copies. Is the document feeder's
narrow glass strip dirty? Clean the narrow glass strip.
Refer to "Cleaning Document Presser and Narrow
Glass Strip" (P.145).

dark. Is the copy density set to
a high value? Adjust the copy density.

the correct position such
as the paper's leading
edge drifted away from
the corners of the tray? Load paper correctly, and align the paper
guides to the paper.
Refer to "Loading Paper in Trays 1 and 2
(Optional)" (P.75).
