Intermittent nozzle failures can be caused by worn

then return to this check.
Ink smudging and smearing can be caused by
paper problems or problems in the paper feed
area.
Check the following:
• Correct type of paper is being used. Also check
the paper for curl or wrinkles.
• Feed rollers for wear, dirt, or looseness.
• Gears for wear or binds.
• Paper path for obstructions.
Blurred print and voids can be caused by problems
in the carrier transport area. Check the following:

lubricated with grease P/N 1329301.
