Print Quality Problems

If your print quality is not what you expect it to be, check the problems and solutions below.
Problem
Print is not clear?
The printout has vertical white
streaks?
10-28
Possible cause
You may be printing on the
wrong side of the paper.
Toner may be low or be
unevenly distributed.
Solution
Many types of paper have a
correct side for printing. If
your paper does, make sure
that side is facing up. If the
paper has no obvious correct
side, try turning the paper over
and printing on the other side.
Follow these steps:
1. Open the front cover and take
out the FX-3 toner cartridge.
2. Gently rock the cartridge side
to side five or six times to
evenly distribute the toner
inside.
3. Put the cartridge back into the
unit.
4. Close the front cover and try
to print again. If this does not
solve the problem, replace the
FX-3 cartridge.
