REMARKS
• When making duplex prints or when using non-white printing paper, the pa-
per end sensor might malfunction and fail to detect the paper. In this case,
place a blank sheet under the printing paper on the paper feed tray.
• The outer portion of the image might not be printed under low temperature.
In this case, slow the printing speed down to setting 1 or 2, or increase the
room temperature.
• The paper exit pawl might contact the printing paper and cause black lines on
the prints. In this case, increase the printing speed or make a new master with
lighter image density mode.
• The leading edge of the prints might become stained if the edge touches the
image of prints on the paper delivery tray.
• The ink of the print on the paper delivery tray might stick to the back side of
the next print.
• When the machine is on and the power source is less than 90 % of the speci-
fied amount, printing quality will decrease. Therefore, make sure the supply
from your electrical outlet is at least 90 % of the required amount.

• As various kinds and qualities of paper exist, some paper might be wrapped
around the drum or cause misfeeds.
• If your hands are stained with ink:
• Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
• Cleanse skin thoroughly after contact, before breaks and meals, and at the
end of the work period.
• Ink is readily removed from skin by waterless hand cleaners followed by
washing with soap and water.
• Also, be careful not to get any ink on your clothing while emptying the master
eject unit or while loading a new ink cartridge.
• The image density varies according to the printing speed and the room tem-
perature. So, adjust the printing speed or increase the room temperature.
• When you make a lot of prints from a small image, ink might ooze out from
the edges of the master, especially under high temperature and when print-
ing in two or more colors. In this case, make a new master.
• Use ink made within one year. Ink stored for a long period tends to dry slow-
ly and yield lower image density.
• While making a master, do not leave the platen cover or optional document
feeder open.
• When you store 1,000 ml/pack ink, make sure to store it upright with the cap
pointing up.
• If you use originals of letters in Light or Dark Tone function, edges of the let-
ters might be printed clearly and inside of the letters might become screened
image.
