Coloured spots at 94 mm
Recommendation
 If colored lines appear at 30 mm intervals, identify the color
causing the problem and replace the toner cartridge that
matches the color of the line (see Replacing the toner
cartridges on page 76).
To identify the color of the toner cartridge, visit

troubleshooting tips.
 If colored lines appear at 94 mm intervals, put a new drum unit
(see Replacing the drum unit on page 84).
 Make sure the media type setting in the driver matches the
type of paper you are using (see Acceptable paper and other
print media on page 32).
 Check the machine's environment. Conditions such as high
humidity can cause hollow print
(see Product Safety Guide).
 If the problem is not solved after printing a few pages, foreign
material, such as glue from a label, may be stuck on the drum
surface (see Advanced User's Guide).
 Put in a new drum unit (see Replacing the drum unit
on page 84).
 Identify the color causing the problem and put in a new toner
cartridge (see Replacing the toner cartridges on page 76).
