Solve copy problems Prevent copy problems The following are a few simple steps you can take to improve copy quality: ● Copy from the flatbed scanner. This will produce a higher quality copy than copying from the automatic document feeder (ADF). ● Use quality originals. ● Load the media correctly. If the media is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear images and problems with the OCR program. See Load paper and print media on page 81 for instructions.
Problem Cause Solution Copies are too light or dark. The darkness setting needs to be adjusted. Touch Copy, and then touch Image Adjustment. Adjust the Darkness slider to lighten or darken the image. Text is unclear. The sharpness setting needs to be adjusted. To adjust the sharpness, touch Copy, and then touch Image Adjustment. Adjust the Sharpness slider to the right to increase the sharpness. The image should be optimized for text.
Problem Cause Solution Print is crooked or misaligned on the page. The media guides might be incorrectly adjusted. Remove all media from the input tray, straighten the stack, and then load the media in the input tray again. Adjust the media guides to the width and length of the media that you are using and try printing again. The scanner might require a calibration. Perform a tray alignment and then calibrate the scanner. More than one sheet feeds at one time.
Performance problems Problem Cause Solution No copy came out. The input tray might be empty. Load media in the device. The original might have been loaded incorrectly. Load the original face down in the ADF or flatbed scanner. The sealing tape might not have been properly removed from the cartridge. Replace the print cartridge and return the defective cartridge. The original might have been loaded incorrectly. Load the original face down in the ADF or flatbed scanner.
