Curl or wave
● Turn over the stack of paper in the tray. Also try rotating the paper 180 degrees in the input
tray.
● Set the correct type in the printer driver. Heavier paper might take longer to print.
● Open the rear output door to print to the straight-through paper path.
● Check the paper type and quality. Both high temperature and humidity will cause paper curl.
Use a different paper, such as high-quality paper designed for laser printers. See the user
guide for information about print-media specifications.
● If the problem is not resolved, see “If the problem is not resolved” on page 202.

too tight or too loose against the stack. See “Loading media” on page 44.

resistivity. Use a different paper, such as high-quality paper designed for laser printers. See
the user guide for information about print-media specifications.
● Change the print mode in the embedded Web server to dry-media mode.
