Printing Quality Problems The dirty inside of the machine or improper paper loading may reduce the print quality. See the table below to clear the problem. Condition Light or faded print AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc Toner specs AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc AaBbCc Suggested solutions If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page: • The toner supply is low. You may be able to temporarily extend the toner cartridge life. See "Redistributing Toner" on page 7.7. If this does not improve the print quality, install a new toner cartridge. • The paper may not meet paper specifications; for example, the paper is too moist or too rough. See "Paper Specifications" on page A.6. • If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low or the toner save mode is on. Adjust the print resolution and turn the toner save mode off. See page 5.20 and page 1.19 respectively. • A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. See "Cleaning the Drum" on page 7.10. • The paper may not meet specifications; for example, the paper is too moist or too rough. See "Paper Specifications" on page A.6. • The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine. See page 7.3. • The paper path may need cleaning. See "Cleaning the Drum" on page 7.10.
