Loose toner Loose toner, in this context, is defined as toner that can be rubbed off the page. 1. If paper is heavy or rough, open the CONFIGURE DEVICE menu at the device control panel. On the PRINT QUALITY submenu, select FUSER MODES, and then select the paper type that you are using. Change the setting to HIGH 1 or HIGH 2, which helps the toner fuse more completely onto the paper. You must also set the type of media for the tray that you are using. (See the user guide.) 2. If you have observed a rougher texture on one side of your paper, try printing on the smoother side. 3.
