Solution:

Carry out the following sequence of procedures. Terminate the sequence as soon as the problem is resolved.

Procedure 1: Changing the fusing temperature

1Select [Machine: Image Quality] in [Advanced Settings] for the custom paper in use, select 1206: [Fusing Temperature] and increase the temperature in [Heat Roller Temp] by 5 degrees.

2Print the image and check toner fusion. Is the problem resolved?

Yes

Finished!

No

Increase the temperature an additional 5 degrees.

3Repeat Step 2 until the temperature reaches 185 degrees. Is the problem resolved?

Yes

Finished!

No

Go to the next step.

4Check the type of your machine. Is it Pro 8300S?

Yes

No further improvement is likely. Contact your service representative.

No

Perform Procedure 2, "Changing the process speed".

Procedure 2: Changing the process speed

This procedure is available only for Pro 8320S, Pro 8310S, Pro 8320 and Pro 8310.

This will slow down the printing to give the toner more time to fuse. However, because of this, throughput will be reduced.

Example when printing on A4/LT paper:

<Pro 8320S/ Pro 8320>

If the process speed is changed from [High] to [Middle]: 136 111 (cpm/ ppm)

If the process speed is changed from [Middle] to [Low]: 111 96 (cpm/ ppm)

<Pro 8310S/ Pro 8310>

If the process speed is changed from [High] to [Low]: 111 96 (cpm/ ppm)

Pro 8310S and Pro 8310 do not have the [Middle] setting.

1Select [Machine: Paper Feed / Output] in [Advanced Settings] for the custom paper in use, select [Process Speed Setting] in 1351: [Motor Speed].

2Decrease the value by one level.

If the present value is [High], select [Middle]. If it is [Middle], select [Low].

3Print the image and check toner fusion. Is the problem resolved?

Yes

Finished!

No

If the problem persists, the machine may be faulty or the paper unsupported. Contact your service representative.
