Troubleshooting Print-Quality Problems in the Printer

control panel, the problem is in the printer.
To find the source of the problem:

Troubleshooting Print-Quality Pages.
2. If the prints are too light to see print details, verify the following:
• The printer is loaded with undamaged, dry supported paper.
• The toner levels of one or more of the toner cartridges is not too low.
3. If the pages are printed with a solid color, one or more of the drum cartridges could be defective.

Troubleshooting Print-Quality Pages.

action to take to resolve the problem.
