How to Identify and Fix Common Problems ?
Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced technical support :
Power off the printer. Press and hold ü and right arrow buttons. Turn on the printer. Press Right to “Factory Defaults” and press checkmark.
Verify That Ink Cartridges Are the Proper Cartridges and Have Not Been Refilled. Verify Packing Tape has Been Removed From Ink Cartridge. Verify That the Ink Cartridges Are Installed in the Correct Slots. Make Sure the Printer Preferences are Set to Use all Available Ink.
Toner chips read levels by monitoring your cartridge`s droplet count, or the number or ink droplets that have been used so far when printing. Chips are programmed for specific toner designs and will provide warnings and stop printing once a certain number of droplets have been used.
The paper passes through rollers in the fuser assembly, where temperatures up to 427 °C (801 °F) and pressure are used to permanently bond the toner to the paper. One roller is usually a hollow tube (heat roller) and the other is a rubber-backed roller (pressure roller).
To fix toner streaks, first, print several blank pages to see if it fixes the print quality. Next, try cleaning the internal components of the printer such as the laser scanner/mirrors. If this doesn`t work, re-install the toner cartridge.
Resetting Components
To reset the components using the CMC Web interface: In the system tree, go to Chassis Overview, and click Troubleshooting > Reset Components . The Reset Components page is displayed. To reset the active CMC, in the CMC Status section, click Reset/Failover CMC.
Verify the toner cartridge is installed correctly.
If you install a new toner cartridge but the “Toner Low”, “Replace Toner” or “Toner Ended” error indication remains, the toner cartridge may not be installed correctly. Reinstall the toner cartridge, referring to the instructions on how to replace the toner cartridge.
Verify the ink cartridge(s) is inserted properly. Some cartridges snap in place, and if they are not inserted fully, the printer won`t print anything. If a lever is moved from its original position to allow for installation of ink cartridges, ensure it is returned to its original position.
Missing colours, streaky prints, smudges and ink blotches are all signs that your printer ink or toner cartridge may be damaged. Some printers will actually warn you if a cartridge is damaged and will refuse to print. This includes HP ink cartridges, Samsung toner cartridges and Canon ink cartridges.
Long lasting: toner cartridges not only provide more prints per cartridge – because toner cartridges aren`t liquid, there`s no risk of them drying out over time. So even cartridges that you`ve owned for a long time will still deliver quality prints, even if you haven`t used them for a while.
A typical toner cartridge will produce anywhere between 2,500 and 4,000 pages, based on a coverage of 5% (roughly third of a page of double-spaced text). Dense pages filled with small font text or graphics will dramatically reduce this output and you may only get up to 1,000 pages per cartridge.
As the name suggests, ink cartridges use liquid ink to create images and text on printed pages. Whereas toner cartridges use powder, which is heated to create printed documents. Much like the quality of petrol you put in your car, the ink and toner you use in your printer will help it run better for longer.

Expired Toner and Suggestions for Source of Toner
ANSWER : Hi Frank, I had a very similar question two weeks ago, but my “old beloved workhorse” is an HP Laserjet 4L. From the good old days! I too had made bad investments in “new but old truly HP” toner cartridges, hoping to coax more life from my printer. I ended up choosing to try a remanufactured cartridge from www.4inkjets.com. It was a gamble, but the website said they had a 100% satisfaction guarantee. And I can tell you they have lighting fast service. I’ve now printed 50 pages without a flaw. JOY! While the cartridges and technology are different, I suggest you try the same place. And good luck!
