EPSON AcuLaser C3800 User's Guide
Misalignment of colors
Graphics do not print correctly
Transparencies are output blank from the MP tray
When there are errors while printing on transparencies, the Check Transparency error
message is displayed on the LCD panel.
Remove the transparencies from the MP tray. Open and close the front cover. Confirm the
paper type and size, and then load the correct type of transparencies.
Note:
❏ When using transparencies, load them in the MP tray and set the Paper Type setting to
Transparency in the printer driver.
❏ When the Paper Type setting in the printer driver is set to Transparency, do not load any other
type of paper except transparencies.
Cause What to do
The registration position of each color may
have shifted while the printer was being
shipped or moved to a new location.
Adjust the color registration alignment. See
"Adjusting Color Registration" on page 206 for
instructions.
Cause What to do
The printer emulation setting in your
application may be incorrect.
Make sure that your application is set for the printer
emulation you are using. For example, if you are
using the ESC/Page mode, make sure that your
application is set to use an ESC/Page printer.
You may need more memory. Graphics require large amounts of memory. Install an
appropriate memory module. See "Memory Module"
on page 220.
