See “Paper Handling” on page 9.
Paper Feed Roller is dirty.
Clean the Paper Feed Roller. Cleaning the Paper Feed Roller will wear the
roller, so perform this procedure only when necessary.
For details on cleaning, see “Cleaning the Paper Feed Roller (Roller Cleaning)”
on page 64.
Paper not loaded properly.
Make sure of the following when you load paper in the machine.
When loading two or more sheets of paper, align the edges of the sheets
before loading.
Always load the paper in portrait orientation, either in the Rear Tray or
Cassette, regardless of the printing orientation.
When loading paper in the Rear Tray, load the paper with the print side facing
