The following procedure guides you through multiple actions that may solve this print image quality problem. Proceed one step at a time until the problem is solved—you may not need to complete the entire procedure. If one of the steps in this procedure corrects the problem but the identical problem returns in less than 50 prints, call for service.

1.Inspect the finished print. If the image is extremely light, go to the first image quality prob- lem procedure in this section, “Image is extremely faint and/or image contains blank areas.”

The ability of the printer to melt and permanently bond the toner image to the page depends a great deal on the darkness of the image. A light image causes less heat to build up during the fusing process, which in turn makes the image on the page less permanent.

2.If the image density is normal but the image still easily rubs off, call your service technician. This problem may be caused by a malfunctioning or broken component that requires service.
