Curl or wave
●
Check the media type and quality. Both high temperature
and high humidity cause media to curl.
●
The media might have been in the input tray too long.
Turn over the stack of media in the tray. Also, try rotating
the media 180° in the input tray.
●
The fuser temperature might be too high. In the printer
driver, make sure that the appropriate media type is
selected. If the problem persists, select a media type that
uses a lower fuser temperature, such as transparencies
or light media.
Wrinkles or creases
●
Make sure that media is loaded properly.
●
Check the media type and quality.
●
Turn over the stack of media in the tray. Also, try rotating
the media 180° in the input tray.
●
For envelopes, this can be caused by air pockets inside
the envelope. Remove the envelope, flatten the
envelope, and then try printing again.
Toner scatter outline
●
If large amounts of toner have scattered around the
characters, the transfer of toner to the media is not
optimal. (A small amount of toner scatter is normal for
laser printing.) Try a different media type setting in the
printer driver, or use a different media type.
●
Turn over the stack of media in the tray.
●
Use media that is designed for laser printers.
