CAUSE:
Dirty background on the right side:
The developer will shift to the left side if the cartridge is tilted as shown below when the sealing tapes are
being removed. This causes excess toner on the right side of the cartridge, which causes the dirty
background on the right side of the printout.
Developer accumulates on
left side of the cartridge.
Dirty background throughout the page:
This may occur when the user turns on the main switch without removing the tape seals or when the
cartridge has been shaken after the seals are removed.
The position of the toner agitator is adjusted at the factory. When the main switch is turned on, the main
motor turns the agitator. After the user removes the seals and resets the cartridge in the machine, the
agitator is no longer in its proper position, which causes dirty background on the printouts.
If the cartridge is shaken after the tape seals are removed, dirty background may occur, as the developer is
not evenly distributed in the development unit.
