Troubleshooting Problem The paper is curled once it exits the printer. The print media is wrinkled or creased once it exits the printer. Solution • Use paper that is sealed in its original packaging. • Turn the paper over. • Rotate the paper 180 degrees. • If you are printing a multi-page job, try duplexing it. • When printing on heavy media, open the rear exit door for a straight- through paper path. • Try another kind or brand of paper, such as a xerographic paper for laser printers. • If possible, try printing in a less humid environment. If the paper still curls, select the Reduce Curl setting from the Configuration menu (see Turning on Reduced Curl mode). • Make sure the print media is loaded properly. • Try printing from a different tray. • Turn over the stack of print media in the tray. Also try rotating the print media 180 degrees. Turning on Reduced Curl mode If print media is curled once it exits the printer, Reduced Curl mode can be turned on to help alleviate the problem. However, before turning this mode on, you should try the possible solutions offered in Troubleshooting (see The paper is curled once it exits the printer.).
