Frequently Asked Questions
Solution
Use only print media
specified in "Guidelines for
Selecting Print Media," on
page 4-2.
Many types of paper have a
"correct" side for printing. If
your paper does, make sure
that side is facing up. If the
paper has no obvious
correct side, try turning the
paper over and printing on
the other side.
Follow these steps:
1. Open the front cover
and take out the FX3
cartridge.
2. Gently rock the
cartridge side to side
five or six times to
evenly distribute the
toner inside.
3. Put the cartridge back
into the machine.
4. Close the front cover
and try printing again.
If this does not solve the
problem, replace the FX3
cartridge.
