Is the bypass feed roller dirty?
Are you using paper that is not within
the specifications?
Are you printing on pre-punched paper?
Does a message appear indicating the
need for maintenance?
Are you using paper that is not within
the specifications?
Did you set the correct paper type?
Is the paper loaded so that printing
takes place on the reverse side?

Use SHARP-recommended paper.
Using paper that is for other models or special paper
that is not supported may result in misfeeds, creases, or
smudges.

"SUPPLIES" in the Start Guide
Take care that the image does not overlap the
punch holes.
If the printed image overlaps the punch holes, smudges
may appear on the reverse side of the paper following
one-sided printing, or on both sides following two-sided
printing.
Contact your dealer or nearest authorised service
representative as soon as possible.
Use SHARP-recommended paper.
Using paper that is for other models or special paper
that is not supported may result in misfeeds, creases, or
smudges.

"SUPPLIES" in the Start Guide
Set the correct paper type in the tray settings.
Make sure that the following has not occurred:
• Heavy paper is being used, but a paper type other
than heavy paper is selected in the tray settings. (The
image may disappear if rubbed.)
• Paper other than heavy paper is being used, but
heavy paper is selected in the tray settings. (This may
cause creases and misfeeds.)
ß System Settings > "Paper Tray Settings" > "Tray
Settings"
Check that the paper is loaded so that printing takes
place on the correct side.
If printing takes place on the wrong side of label sheets
or transparency film, the toner may not adhere well and
a clear image may not be obtained.
Check with your administrator.
When "Toner Save Mode" is enabled, printing takes
place using less toner and thus the print result is lighter.
