FAQs & Troubleshooting |
When I print or copy a document in fast mode, the printing is shifted vertically on the paper.
Powder/dust from the paper may build up on the surface of the paper pick-up rollers. This can cause the paper to slip as it is picked up from the tray. To resolve this issue follow the steps below:
- Clean the paper pick-up roller
- Unplug the machine from the AC power outlet (electrical socket).
- Pull the paper trays completely out of the machine.
- Open the Jam Clear Cover (1) at the back of the machine.
- Clean the Back Paper Feed Rollers (1) with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with water.
Slowly turn the rollers so that the whole surface is clean. After cleaning, wipe the rollers with a dry, soft lint-free cloth to remove all moisture.
Do not touch the metal shaft.
- Close the Jam Clear Cover. Make sure the cover is completely closed.
- Put the paper trays firmly back in the machine.
- Re-connect the power cord.
- Unplug the machine from the AC power outlet (electrical socket).
- Flip the paper in the paper tray
If you are using paper that has a coating on one side (e.g. Photo Paper) skip this step.
- Take the paper out of the tray and fan the stack of paper well.
- Install the paper into the tray with the other side face up.
- Put the paper tray firmly back in the machine.
- Start copying or printing again.
- Take the paper out of the tray and fan the stack of paper well.
If you still have a problem after performing the previous steps Brother recommends copying or printing your document at a higher resolution (an increased resolution will print your document at a slower speed).
