Copying/Printing Stops

Check1

Is paper loaded?

Make sure paper is loaded.

If necessary, load paper.

Check2

Do documents to be printed have many photographs or illustrations?

It takes time for the machine and the computer to process large data such as photos or other graphics, so it may seem that the machine is not working.

Also, if you are printing data that requires a lot of ink on successive sheets of plain paper, the machine may pause temporarily. In either case, wait until the process is complete.

Note

• If you are printing a document with a large printing area or printing several copies, printing may pause to allow the ink to dry.

Check3

Has machine been printing continuously for a long period?

If the machine has been printing continuously for a long time, the print head or other parts around it may overheat. The machine may stop printing at a line break for a period of time and then resume printing.

In this case, wait a while without doing anything. If the printing does not resume, interrupt your print session and turn the machine off for at least 15 minutes.

Caution

• Print head and surrounding area can become extremely hot. Never touch print head or nearby components.

Check4

If copying stops before it is completed, retry copying.

If a certain time passes after some errors occurred while copying, the machine stops the operation.
