Troubleshooting. Image Quality. IQ03 Unfused Image
The printed image is not fully fused to the paper. The image rubs off easily. A cold environment affects the warm-up time, while high humidity has an adverse effect on fusing. Also, media weight and composition affect fusing performance.
Initial Actions
- Check the environment. A location that’s too cold or humid reduces fusing performance.
- Inspect the media path for debris, such as staples, paper clips, and paper scraps.
- Verify that the media type is set correctly.
