indicated or the parts may be deteriorated.
Step 2: Checking the Usage Environment of the Machine
Are You Using the Machine in an Environment with Sudden Temperature Changes?
Sudden temperature changes can create condensation, which can result in faded or blurry images and text.
Continuing to use the machine under these conditions may result in paper jams, printing defects, faults, or
other problems. Allow the machine to adjust to the ambient temperature and humidity for at least 2 hours
before use.
Is the Machine Installed in a Location Subject to Strong Wind Such as from an Air
Conditioner?
If so, adjust the air direction and volume of the air conditioner.
If that does not work, setting [Switch Paper Feed Method] to [Print Side Priority] may improve the problem.
