Toner smudges
Cause What to do
Your paper may be moist or
damp.
Do not store your paper in a humid or
damp environment.
You may not be using the
correcttype of paper for your
printer.
If the surface of your paper is too
rough, printed characters may appear
distorted or broken. Smooth,
high-quality copier paper is
recommended for best results. See
“Paper” for information on choosing
paper.
The paper path inside the
printer may be dusty.
Turn off the printer. Clean internal
printer components by printing three
pages with only one character per
page.
There may be a problem with
the imaging cartridge.
Turn off the printer. Remove the
imaging cartridge, shake it side to side
to distribute the toner, and wipe the
bottom of it with a clean, dry cloth.
If the problem remains, replace the imaging cartridge as described
under “Replacing the Imaging Cartridge”.
