Colors Differ from What You See on the Display

❏ Display devices such as computer screens have their own display properties. If the display is unbalanced, the
image are not displayed with proper brightness and colors. Adjust the properties of the device.
❏ Light shining into the display has an effect on how the image is seen on the display. Avoid direct sunlight and
confirm the image where an appropriate illuminance is assured.
❏ Colors may differ from what you see on smart devices such as smart phones or tablets with high-resolution
displays.
❏ Colors on a display are not quite identical to those on paper because the display device and the printer have a
different process of producing colors.

The Position, Size, or Margins of the Printout Are Incorrect

❏ Load paper in the correct direction, and slide the edge guides against the edges of the paper.
❏ When placing the originals on the scanner glass, align the corner of the original with the corner indicated by a
symbol on the frame of the scanner glass. If the edges of the copy are cropped off, move the original slightly
away from the corner.
❏ When placing the originals on the scanner glass, clean the scanner glass and the document cover. If there is dust
or stains on the glass, the copy area may extend to include the dust or stains, resulting in the wrong copying
position or small images.
❏ Select the appropriate paper size setting.
❏ Adjust the margin setting in the application so that it falls within the printable area.
