7.10 Printing quality problems If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, you may notice a reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the problem. ConditionSuggested solutions Light or faded printIf a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page: • The toner supply is low. You may be able to temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. If this does not improve the print quality, install a new toner cartridge. • The paper may not meet paper specifications; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough. (See Specifications on print media on page 4.3.) • If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low or the toner save mode is on. Adjust the print resolution and turn the toner save mode off. See the help screen of the printer driver and refer to Software section, respectively. • A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. Contact a service representative. • The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the LSU (see page 6.2). Toner specks• The paper may not meet specifications; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough. (See Specifications on print media on page 4.3.) • The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a service representative. DropoutsIf faded areas, generally rounded, occur randomly on the page: • A single sheet of paper may be defective. Try reprinting the job. • The moisture content of the paper is uneven or the paper has moist spots on its surface. Try a different brand of paper. (See Specifications on print media on page 4.3.) • The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing processes can cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper. • If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative. White Spots White spots appear on the page: • The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a service representative. Vertical linesIf black vertical streaks appear on the page: • The toner cartridge has probably been scratched. Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one. If white vertical streaks appear on the page: • The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the LSU (see page 6.2). Color or Black backgroundIf the amount of background shading becomes unacceptable: • Change to a lighter weight paper. (See Specifications on print media on page 4.3.) • Check the environmental conditions: very dry conditions (low humidity) or a high level of humidity (higher than 80% RH) can increase the amount of background shading. • Remove the old toner cartridge, and then install a new one.

If the defects occur on the back of the page, the problem will likely correct itself after a few more pages. • The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service representative. Background scatterBackground scatter results from bits of toner randomly distributed on the printed page. • The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a different batch of paper. Do not open packages of paper until necessary so that the paper does not absorb too much moisture. • If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print resolution through your software application or in printer properties. Misformed characters• If characters are improperly formed and producing hollow images, the paper stock may be too slick. Try different paper. (See Specifications on print media on page 4.3.) • If characters are improperly formed and producing a wavy effect, the scanner unit may need service. Contact a service representative. Page skew• Ensure that the paper is loaded properly. • Check the paper type and quality. (See Specifications on print media on page 4.3.) • Ensure that the paper or other material is loaded correctly and the guides are not too tight or too loose against the paper stack.

7.13 Common Linux problems ConditionSuggested solutions The printer doesn’t print.• Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open Unified Driver Configurator and switch to the Printers tab in Printers configuration window to look at the list of available printers. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the list. If not, please, invoke Add new printer wizard to set up your device. • Check if the printer is started. Open Printers configuration and select your machine on the printers list. Look at the description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains “(stopped)” string, please, press the Start button. After that normal operation of the printer should be restored. The stopped status might be activated when some problems in printing occurred. • Check if your application has special print option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter then remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select “print” -> “Setup printer” and edit command line parameter in the command item. I encounter error “Unable to open mfp port device file!” when printing a document.Please avoid changing print job parameters (via LPR GUI, for example) while a print job is in progress. Known versions of CUPS server break the print job whenever print options are changed and then try to restart the job from the beginning. Since Unified Linux Driver locks mfp port while printing, the abrupt termination of the driver keeps the port locked and therefore unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this situation occurred, please, try to release the mfp port. When printing a document over the network in SuSE 9.2, the printer does not print.The CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) version distributed with SuSE Linux 9.2 (cups-1.1.21) has a problem with ipp (Internet Printing Protocol) printing. Use the socket printing instead of ipp or install later version of CUPS (cups-1.1.22 or higher). Common Macintosh problems ProblemSuggested solutions PDF file does not print correctly-some parts are missing in the graphics, text or illustrations.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. Note: It will take longer to print when you print a PDF file as an image. The document has printed, but the print job has not disappeared from the spooler in Mac OS 10.3.2.Update your Mac OS to OS 10.3.3. or higher. Some fonts are not printed properly in the Adobe Illustrator program.Those fonts may not supported by your machine. Start the Adobe Illustrator program, click File > Print > Illustrator tab. Then, check Force Fonts to Download, and try again. Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals

10.1 10 Glossary Control Panel A control panel is a flat area where control or monitoring instruments are displayed. They are typically found in top or front of the machine. Coverage This is the printing term used for toner usage measurement on printing and generally used as 5% coverage. 5% coverage means that an A4 sided paper has about 5% image or text on it. So, if the paper or original has complicated images or lots of text on it, the coverage will be over 5% and at the same time, toner usage will be as much as the coverage. Default The first set values. DPI This is the measurement of resolution which is used for printing or scanning. Generally, more dots per inch result in a higher resolution, more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size. Duty Cycle Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer performance for a month. Generally the printer has the lifespan limitation such as pages per year. The lifespan means the average capacity of print-outs, usually within the warranty period. For example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 pages per month assuming 20 working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages a day, which is not small amount. Fuser Unit This is the part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media. It consists of two hot rollers. After toner is transferred onto the paper, the fuser unit applies heat and pressure to ensure that the toner stays on the paper permanently, which is why paper is warm when it comes out of a laser printer. Grayscale Shades of gray that represent light and dark portions of an image when color images are converted to grayscale; colors are represented by various shades of gray. Halftone This is an image type that simulates grayscale by varying the number of dots. Highly colored areas consist of a large number of dots, while lighter areas consist of a smaller number of dots. ISO The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an international standard-setting body composed of representatives from national standards bodies. It produces world-wide industrial and commercial standards. LED A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that indicates the status of a machine. Print Media Media such as papers, labels, and transparencies which can be used on a printer, a scanner, a fax or, a copier. OPC Drum A mechanism that makes a virtual image for print using a laser beam emitted from a laser printer, and it is usually green or gray-colored and cylinder-shaped. An exposing unit of a drum is slowly worn away by its usage of the printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it becomes scratched from grit in paper. PDF Portable Document Format (PDF) is a proprietary file format developed by Adobe Systems for representing two-dimensional documents in a device-independent and resolution-independent format. PPM Pages Per Minute. PPM shows the printers speed, how many pages a printer can actually print per minute. PRN file An interface for a device driver, this allows software to interact with the device driver using standard input/output system calls, which simplifies many tasks. Resolution The sharpness of an image, measured in dots per inch (dpi). The higher the dpi, the greater the resolution. Toner cartridge It is a kind of bottle within a machine like a printer which contains toner. Toner is a powder used in laser printers and photocopiers which forms the text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be melted by the heat of the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper. URL Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents and resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates what protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the domain name where the resource is located. USB Universal serial bus (USB) is a standard that was developed by the USB Implementers Forum, Inc., to connect computers and peripherals. Unlike the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently connect a single computer USB port to multiple peripherals. Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals
