need cleaning.

First, print a Self-Test Report to check the status of the print cartridges. Use

the Self-Test Report to determine if the print cartridges need to be cleaned.

If that does not work, try replacing the print cartridges.

Printer is too light.

See

make copies lighter or darker

on page 13 for information on making

a copy darker.

The print cartridges

are out of ink.

Print a Self-Test Report to diagnose problems with the print cartridges. First

clean the cartridges, and then replace them if necessary.

If the paper you are

using is too fibrous,

the ink may not cover

the print surface.

Make sure you are using paper that is appropriate for your HP Digital

Copier Printer. For information on choosing a paper type, see

recommended papers

on page 8 and

papers to avoid when copying

on

page 9.

Copying a poor-

quality picture causes

moiré patterns, such

as bands, checks, or

stripes to appear.

To reduce moiré patterns, try placing one or more clear plastic sheet

protectors directly on the glass, and then place the original face down on

top of the plastic sheet.

Debris may be stuck

on the glass or

document backing.

Unplug the unit before cleaning. Use a soft cloth to wipe the glass and

document backing.
