Solving Print-Quality Problems

When the print quality is poor, to correct the problem, select the closest symptom from the following
table, then refer to the corresponding solution. You can also print Support pages to help detect
image-quality problems. For details, refer to Information Pages.
If the print quality does not improve after performing the appropriate action, contact your Xerox
representative.
Note: To maintain print quality, a warning message appears when the toner level is low or when the
drum cartridge is nearing the end of life. When the toner cartridge is empty, or when the drum cartridge
has reached end of life, a second message appears. The second message prompts you to replace the
expired cartridge. The printer stops printing until you install a new toner cartridge or drum cartridge.
