Use a range of processes to resolve problems that arise due to factors such as the paper type, the material used, or its condition. * Values in bold red text are the default settings for each item.
Specify special processing for the paper in the following situations:
If you are using special paper
To print on the back of printed paper
For paper with a rough surface
If the envelope flap is stuck down
If the paper curls during printing
[Manual Back Side Print (2-Sided Only)]
[Menu] [Adjustment/Maintenance] [Adjust Image Quality] [Special Processing] [Special Paper Processing]
If you are using paper that has already been printed on, printing on the back side may appear faint. If so, specifying [On] for that paper source may improve the print results.
* When this is set to [On], if some time has passed since the front side of the paper was printed, or depending on the operating environment humidity, changes in image quality or paper jams may occur.

If you are using paper with a rough surface, printed images may appear faint, particularly where the images use 2 or more toner colors overlaid. If so, specifying [On] for that paper source may improve the print results.
* Specifying [On] in this setting may lead to slower print speeds or changes in the image quality.

Depending on the type of envelope and the operating environment, the envelope flap may stick down during printing. If so, specifying [On] in this setting may reduce the likelihood of envelope flaps sticking down.
* If this is set to [On], the print may be faded because the toner is not fully fixed on the paper.

[Paper Curl Correction]
[Menu] [Adjustment/Maintenance] [Adjust Image Quality] [Special Processing] [Special Paper Processing]
Depending on paper used, the paper may curl during printing. If so, specifying [On] in this setting may alleviate paper curling.
* Specifying [On] in this setting may lead to faded print or make printing slower.
In 2-sided color printing involving multiple pages, printed paper sheets may stick together. If so, specifying [On] in this setting may reduce the likelihood of paper sheets sticking together.
* Specifying [On] in this setting slows down the print speed for images that are likely to stick together.
In 2-sided printing, water droplets inside the machine may result in images being printed faintly. If so, specifying [On] in this setting may reduce the amount of condensation inside the machine.
* Specifying [On] in this setting may lead to faded print or make printing slower.
White areas in printed images may appear to be faintly colored throughout. If so, specifying [Mode 1] may correct the problem. If this does not correct the problem, select [Mode 2] and [Mode 3] in that order.
* When this setting is enabled, the print density may decrease.
Depending on the paper type and operating environment, the toner in printed images may peel off. If so, specifying [Mode 1] in this setting may improve the print results. If this does not solve the problem, specify [Mode 2].
* Enabling this setting may result in ghosting in blank areas.
Specify whether to prioritize the print speed or limit the use of the color toner cartridges when printing documents that include both black and white and color.
To prioritize the print speed, specify [Mode 1] in this setting.
To limit the use of color toner cartridges, specify [Mode 2] in this setting.
Print may be faded immediately after installing a new replacement toner cartridge. If so, specifying [On] in this setting may improve the print results. This setting takes effect the next time a toner cartridge is replaced.
* Specifying [On] will result in a longer delay than usual between replacing toner cartridges and being able to print.
During black and white printing, the machine may make a sound as if there is friction. In this case, selecting [Mode 1] may reduce the sound. If that does not work, select [Mode 2].
* When this setting is enabled, the printing speed may decrease.
