Troubleshooting

_ 35

The machine 
prints, but the 
text is wrong, 
garbled, or 
incomplete.

The machine 
cable is loose or 
defective.

Disconnect the machine cable and 
reconnect. Try a print job that you 
have already printed successfully. 
If possible, attach the cable and 
the machine to another computer 
that you know works and try a print 
job. Finally, try a new machine 
cable.

The wrong 
printer driver was 
selected.

Check the application’s printer 
selection menu to ensure that your 
machine is selected.

The software 
application is 
malfunctioning.

Try printing a job from another 
application.

The operating 
system is 
malfunctioning.

Exit Windows and reboot the 
computer. Turn the machine off 
and back on again.

If you are in a 
DOS
environment, the 
font setting for 
your machine 
may be set 
incorrectly.

See "Changing font setting" on 
page 10.

Pages print, but 
they are blank.

The toner 
cartridge is 
defective or out 
of toner.

Redistribute the toner, if 
necessary.
If necessary, replace the toner 
cartridge.

The file may 
have blank 
pages.

Check the file to ensure that it 
does not contain blank pages.

Some parts, such 
as the controller 
or the board, 
may be 
defective.

Contact a service representative.

The machine 
does not print 
PDF file 
correctly. Some 
parts of 
graphics, text, 
or illustrations 
are missing.

Incompatibility 
between the PDF 
file and the 
Acrobat 
products.

Printing the PDF file as an image 
may enable the file to print. Turn 
on 

Print As Image

 from the 

Acrobat printing options. 

It will take longer to print 
when you print a PDF file as 
an image.

CONDITION

POSSIBLE

CAUSE

SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS

The print 
quality of 
photos is not 
good. Images 
are not clear.

The resolution of 
the photo is very 
low. 

Reduce the photo size. If you 
increase the photo size in the 
software application, the resolution 
will be reduced. 

Before printing, 
the machine 
emits vapor 
near the output 
tray.

Using damp 
paper can cause 
vapor during 
printing.

This is not a problem. Just keep 
printing.

The machine 
does not print 
special- sized 
paper, such as 
billing paper.

Paper size and 
paper size 
setting do not 
match.

Set the correct paper size in the 

Edit...

 in the 

Paper

 tab in the 

Printing Preferences

. (See 

"Opening printing preferences" on 
page 17.)
