Copying/Printing Stops Before It Is Completed

• Check 1: Is the paper loaded?
Make sure that paper is loaded.
If the machine has run out of paper, load paper.
• Check 2: Do the printing documents have lots of photographs or
illustrations?
As printing large data such as photos or graphics takes time for the machine and the computer to
process, the machine may appear to have stopped operating.
In addition, when printing data that uses a large amount of ink continuously on plain paper, the
machine may pause temporarily. In either case, wait until the process is complete.
Note
If you are printing a document with a large printing area or printing multiple copies of a document,
printing may pause to allow the ink to dry.
• Check 3: Has the machine been printing continuously for a long
period?
If the machine has been printing continuously for a long time, the print head or other parts around it
may overheat. The machine may stop printing at a line break for a period of time and then resume
printing.
In this case, wait for a while without operation. If the printing still does not resume, interrupt your print
session at a convenient time and turn the machine off for at least 15 minutes.
Caution
The print head and the surrounding area can become extremely hot inside the machine. Never
touch the print head or nearby components.
