• Clean the inside of the printer. See "Cleaning the Inside" on
page 6.6.
• Check the type and quality. See "Print Media Specifications"
on page A.3.
• Install a new print cartridge.
• The print cartridge may be damaged. If a repetitive mark
occurs every 95 mm or 38 mm on the page, print a cleaning
sheet several times to clean the cartridge (see "Printing a
Cleaning Sheet" on page 6.8). After the printout, if you still
have the same problems, install a new print cartridge.
• Parts in the printer may have toner on them. If the defects
occur on the back of the page, the problem corrects itself
after a few more pages.
• The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service
representative.
