Background scatter
Background scatter results from bits of toner
randomly distributed on the printed page.
•
The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a
different batch of paper. Do not open packages
of paper until necessary so that the paper does
not absorb too much moisture.
•
If background scatter occurs on an envelope,
change the printing layout to avoid printing over
areas that have overlapping seams on the
reverse side. Printing on seams can cause
problems.
•
If background scatter covers the entire surface
area of a printed page, adjust the print
resolution through your software application or
the printer properties.
