Check your application for image sizing.
Make sure that the correct size media is in the media tray.
Make sure that the image size is smaller than printable area (see
"Margins and Print Area"
Print the Calibration Test Print from the Bias Adjustment menu in the
printer panel. Check the density settings for each color and compare
them with the color density samples on the Color Calibration Card. Refer
to "Adjusting the Color Density"
instructions on comparing and setting color density.
Make sure that the color imaging unit stays covered until immediately
before installing it in the printer. Exposure to light can damage the color
imaging unit and will produce light streaks or faded prints.
Make sure that the toner cartridges are installed correctly.
Make sure that you use a high-quality laser paper:
60-105 g/m 2 (16-28 lbs.) paper in the media trays and 75-165 g/m
(20-44 lbs.) paper in the multi-purpose tray.
When using the multi-purpose tray, make sure that you have selected the
correct media type in the driver.
