When blurring or white spot appears
When blurring (hollow hole) or white spot appears on the printed page, change the machine setting to deal with the problem.

The term blurring refers to a condition in which the solid area in an image is not uniformly covered by ink layer, causing minute white spots to appear.
The result may vary depending on the ambient temperature, temperature of the paper, and other paper conditions. Paper condition is affected by temperature, humidity, and other environmental conditions and storage methods.
Results may vary depending on the paper grain and the orientation in which the paper is loaded (SEF or LEF). If no problem occurs when you change the orientation in which the paper is loaded, change the orientation, and try again.
