Character Voids
Character voids are white areas within the parts of characters
that should be solid black:
• If you are using transparencies, try another type of
transparency. Because of the composition of the
transparency, some character voids are normal.
• You may be printing on the wrong side of the paper. Remove
the paper and turn it around.
• The paper may not meet paper specifications. See “Paper
Specifications” on page E.3.
Horizontal stripes
If horizontally aligned black streaks or smears appear:
• The toner cartridge may be installed improperly. Remove the
cartridge and reinsert.
• The toner cartridge may be defective. Install a new toner
cartridge. See “Installing the Toner Cartridge” on page 2.4.
• If the problem persists, the printer may require repair.
Contact a service representative.
Curl
If the printed paper is curl or paper does not feed into the
printer:
• Turn over the stack of paper in the input tray. Also try
rotating the paper 180° in the input tray.
