Smears, Smudges, and Streaks
Dark or light marks appear on your output.
Run a print job consisting of several blank pages
through the printer to remove toner accumulated on
the fuser.
If the problem persists, print the test pages to help
determine which component is causing the image-
quality problem.
• If the defect occurs in one color only, replace the
corresponding imaging unit.
• If the defect occurs in all colors and is visible on all
the test pages, replace the fuser.
Repeating Spots or Lines
Spot or lines appear at regular intervals on the prints.

spots or lines, follow the instructions on the
Repeating Defects page.

identified on the Repeating Defects page.
Colors Too Light or Too Dark
The print or color density is too light, missing, or the
background is foggy.
1 Verify that the paper you are using is the correct
type for the printer and is loaded properly. For
details, see Supported Paper.
2 Verify that the paper loaded in the tray matches
the paper type selected at the control panel and in
the print driver.

problems, at the control panel, press the HHoommee
button. Touch DDeevviiccee >> IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn PPaaggeess >>

If the Color Reference page looks correct, the
printer is printing properly. Your application or
incorrect settings in the print driver can be causing
the print-quality problems.
