Checking A Sample Printout - Ricoh M018 Service Manual

6.2.2 CHECKING A SAMPLE PRINTOUT

Print out a mono-color pattern (all K, C, M, or Y), which will clarify if the cause is a problem
with one of the AIOs, the image transfer belt, image transfer roller, or the fusing unit. A
sample page is provided with the printer driver's CD. You can print the sample page from the
printer driver's CD. Before printing, you have to adjust the printer driver settings to make the
problem become obvious. For details about adjusting the settings, refer to "Printer Driver
Setting for Printing a Sample" described below.
