Paper Is Smeared or Scuffed

❏ When horizontal banding appears or the top or bottom of the paper is smeared, load paper in the correct
direction and slide the edge guides to the edges of the paper.
❏ When vertical banding appears or the paper is smeared, clean the paper path.
❏ Place the paper on a flat surface to check if it is curled. If it is, flatten it.
❏ When printing on thick paper, the print head is close to the printing surface and the paper may be scuffed. In
this case, enable the reduce scuff setting. If you enable this setting, print quality may decline or printing may
slow down.
Windows
