Figure 6-8 Print quality page Section 1 2 3 4 Toner cartridge Yellow Cyan Black Magenta ● If dots or streaks appear in only one of the groups, replace the toner cartridge that correlates with that group. ● If dots appear in more than one group, print a cleaning page. If this does not solve the problem, determine if the dots are always the same color; for example, if magenta dots appear in all five color bands. If the dots are all the same color, replace that toner cartridge. ● If streaks appear in multiple color bands, contact HP. A component other than the toner cartridge is probably causing the problem. Check the EconoMode settings HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply might outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is no longer acceptable, consider replacing the toner cartridge. NOTE: This feature is available with the PCL 6 print driver for Windows.

If dots or streaks appear in only one of the groups, replace the toner cartridge that correlates with that
group.
●
If dots appear in more than one group, print a cleaning page. If this does not solve the problem, determine
if the dots are always the same color; for example, if magenta dots appear in all five color bands. If the dots
are all the same color, replace that toner cartridge.

If streaks appear in multiple color bands, contact HP. A component other than the toner cartridge is
probably causing the problem.
Check the EconoMode settings
HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply might
outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is no longer acceptable,
consider replacing the toner cartridge.

This feature is available with the PCL 6 print driver for Windows. If you are not using that driver, you can
