Troubleshooting
The color does not match the other imageRUNNER C3100/C3100N that you are using at the
same time
Cause 1 There is a slight unevenness in the Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), C (Cyan), or K
(blacK) toner density.
Remedy Slightly adjust the toner density of the Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), C (Cyan), or K
(blacK) toners. (See "Toner Save," on p. 2-10.)
Cause 2 The machine's density settings are not adjusted correctly.
Remedy Perform an Automatic Gradation Adjustment. (See Chapter 4, "Customizing
Settings," in the Reference Guide.)
The specified color of thin lines or filled-in patterns do not print or disappear
Cause 1 The combination of the color or pattern cannot be reproduced correctly.
Remedy 1 Adjust the color in the software application you are using and print the data
again.
Remedy 2 Change the pattern in the software application you are using and print the data
again.
Cause 2 The color looks different due to the halftone pattern.
Remedy 1 Change the density of the color and print the data again.
Remedy 2 Change the direction of the paper and print the data again.
Remedy 3 Set Halftones in the printer driver to 'Error Diffusion' and print the data again.
(See the Help function on the printer driver.)
NOTE
You can also perform the same procedure from the touch panel display. (See "Halftones,"
on p. 2-25.)
