Random image repetition If an image that appears at the top of the page (in solid black) repeats further down the page (in a gray field), the toner might not have been completely erased from the last job. (The repeated image might be lighter or darker than the field it appears in.) ● Print the job several times to determine if the problem persists. ● Change the tone (darkness) of the field that the repeated image appears in. ● Change the order in which the images are printed. For example, have the lighter image at the top of the page, and the darker image farther down the page. ● From your software program, rotate the whole page 180° to print the lighter image first. ● If the defect occurs later in a print job, turn the product off for 10 minutes, and then turn it on to restart the print job.
