Chapter 6 Printer Troubleshooting
Introduction
Always check for error messages on your computer's monitor screen and the printer operation panel
anytime you are unable to complete a print job. These messages can give you easy-to-follow
directions. If the messages do not give specific instructions, check the troubleshooting list on page
58.
NOTE
For problems related to paper misfeed, toner empty, toner container full, and other related copier problems, see the
copier operation manual.
Notes on Printing Lengthy Documents
When printing a lengthy document, the document memory in the printer may become full of print
data. Also a lengthy document may exceed the limit of the output tray. The printer will operate as
follows depending on the conditions.
1. If face down output is specified:
A. If printing one copy of a lengthy document is specified:
Printing will stop when the number of printed sheets reaches the limit of the output tray (if the
tray can detect the limit). When the printed paper is removed from the output tray, printing
will resume.
B. If printing multiple copies of a lengthy document is specified and the key operator program
"Output Method When Memory Is Full" (page 43) is set to "1 SET":
The printer will print only one set followed by a notice page at the end of the job.
C. If printing multiple copies of a lengthy
document is specified and the key
operator program "Output Method When
Memory Is Full" (page 43) is set to
"MULTI-SET":
Printed sheets will be divided into blocks*
as shown in the illustration. A separator
sheet will be inserted between each block.
Finally, a notice page will be output. The
number of pages in a block can be
changed using the key operator program
"Memory Reserved for Printer". See page
43.
