For more information on replacing the toner cartridge,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

see the installation guide included with the toner

 

 

 

 

 

 

cartridge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dark or light lines or streaks appear in colors, except

 

 

 

black. A toner cartridge might be defective. If the

 

 

 

 

 

 

problem persists, contact a local authorized HP dealer

 

 

 

or service representative for service.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

White lines or streaks only appear in the black areas of

 

 

 

print, but not in color areas. Print the configuration page

 

 

 

 

 

 

five times. The defect should clear with continued

 

 

 

printing. Then reprint the print job. If the problem

 

 

 

persists, replace the black toner cartridge. If the

 

 

 

problem persists, contact a local authorized HP dealer

 

 

 

or service representative for service.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dark or white lines or streaks in all colors, including

 

 

 

black. Print the configuration page five times. The

 

 

 

defect should clear with continued printing. If the defect

 

 

 

does not clear, turn the printer off and on to reset the

 

 

 

printer's density calibration. Make sure that the transfer

 

 

 

belt is seated properly (rest the ends of the belt into the

 

 

 

notches inside the printer). If the problem persists,

 

 

 

replace the imaging drum. For more information on

 

 

 

replacing the imaging drum, see the installation guide

 

 

 

included with the drum kit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Light streaks in dark solid fill areas might indicate that

 

 

 

the post charger on the transfer drum needs to be

 

 

 

cleaned. Open and close the front door to complete a

 

 

 

printer self-cleaning cycle. If the defect does not clear,

 

 

 

clean the post charger. For information on cleaning the

 

 

 

post charger, see “Cleaning the Post Charger” later in

 

 

 

this chapter.
