Paper Handling Difficulties

The DCP does not load paper. 
The LCD shows 

Check 

Paper

 or 

Paper Jam

.

Check to see if the 

Check Paper

 or 

Paper Jam

 message appears on 

the LCD. If it is empty, load a new stack of paper into the paper tray. If 
there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is 
curled, you should straighten it. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the 
paper, turn the stack over and put it back into the paper tray. Reduce the 
amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again. Check that the 
manual feed mode or MP tray or MP mode is not selected in the printer 
driver.

The DCP does not feed paper 
from the manual feed tray.

Reinsert the paper firmly, load one sheet at a time. Make sure that 
manual feed mode or MP mode is selected in the printer driver.

How can I load envelopes?

You can load envelopes from the manual feed or MP tray. Your 
application software must be set up to print the envelope size you are 
using. This is usually done in the Page Setup or Document Setup menu 
of your software. Refer to your software application manual. 

What paper can I use?

You can use plain paper, envelopes, transparencies and labels that are 
made for laser machines. (For information on paper you can use, see 

Printer operation keys

 on page 6-17.)

How can I clear paper jams?

See 

Paper jams

 on page 14-5.

Print Quality Difficulties

Printed pages are curled.

Thin or thick paper below the standard can cause this problem. Make 
sure you select the Paper Type that suits the media type you use. (See 

Setting the Paper Type

 on page 4-1 and 

Media Type

 on page 7-4.)

Printed pages are smeared.

The Paper Type setting may be incorrect for the type of print media you 
are using—

OR

—The print media may be too thick or have a rough 

surface. (See 

Setting the Paper Type

 on page 4-1 and 

Media Type

 on 

page 7-4.)

Printouts are too light.

Set Toner Save mode to off in the Advance tab in the printer driver. (See 

Toner Save Mode

 on page 7-6.)

Network Difficulties

I cannot print over the Network

Make sure that your DCP is powered on and is On Line and in Ready 
mode. Press the Test switch. Then the current settings of the NC-9100h 
are printed.Verify that the cabling and Network connections are good. If 
possible, try connecting the DCP to a different port on your hub using a 
different cable. Check to see if there is any LED activity. The NC-9100h 
has a two color LED for diagnosing problems.
