Paper Problems
Paper comes out wrinkled.

"Printing on Plain Paper, Heavy Paper, Label Paper, and Transparencies," on p.
2-13, "Printing on Index Card," on p. 2-26, "Printing on Envelopes," on p. 2-33,
"Printing on Custom Paper Sizes (Non-Standard Sizes)," on p. 2-44.)
Cause 2 The paper is damp.
Remedy Replace the paper with paper from a new ream.
The paper curls.
Cause 1 The paper is inappropriate.
Remedy Replace the paper with paper that can be used with this printer. (See "Paper
Requirements," on p. 2-2.)
Cause 2 The [Paper Type] setting does not match the loaded paper.
Remedy Set the [Paper Type] in the printer driver to [Plain Paper L].

White dust is attached to the printed transparencies.
Cause You printed the transparencies just after continuously printing on another type
of paper.
Remedy If you print transparencies after printing continuously on normal paper, paper
dust may adhere to the transparencies when they are output. If this is the case,
use a soft cloth to wipe off the paper dust.
