Solving Problems
Solution
At setup, and any time the printer is
moved, adjust the side-to-side (scan
direction) color registration. See "Color
Registration" on page 140.
Remove the media, tap it to straighten it
out, return it to the media tray, and realign
the media guides.
Use MINOLTA-QMS-approved media. See
"Media" on page 32 for a complete
list of approved media. Check
www.minolta-qms.com/support (click on
Answer Base) for currently approved
media. To order approved media, go to
www.q-shop.com.
Remove any jammed media from the
printer.
Put the printer on a flat, hard, level surface
not to exceed ±5° slant.
Remove any tape or adhesive that may
have become lodged in the paper path.
Try loading about 100 pages of plain paper
first in the tray to give more height to the
transparency stack to reach the feed
rollers.
