How to Identify and Fix Common printer Problems ?

Verify the Print Quality setting in the print driver. In the print driver, on the Printing Options tab, if the Print Quality is set to Toner Saver, change the setting to Standard. Change the Image setting to a darker setting. If the problem persists, contact Supoprt for additional assistance.
A common cause of faded, faint printouts from your inkjet printer is dried ink particles causing a blockage in your printer. The printheads on an ink cartridge can be become blocked if the printer is not used for a period of time, so it is recommended to print a few pages each month to maintain the print quality.
Check your print driver to make sure you have the correct paper or media selected. Double check that the paper loaded in the tray matches the type selected in the printer driver. In some laser printers, the fuser has an adjustment for paper type.
Xerox offers color laser printers in a variety of models to support the demand for quality color prints. If your office needs a printer that is fast, can meet large demands and help you save money, shop from our collection of color laser printers.
The most common reason for getting faded prints is having empty or defective toner cartridges. It is unbelievably frequent that people forget to replace their empty toner cartridges and struggle to figure out why their printers print faintly. Another common reason is that people use defective cartridges.
Unfortunately, there is no way to restore faded ink to its original state. Some chemicals are advertised to darken original inks, but they are often damaging to paper and conservators do not recommend them.
Place a non-fluffy, thin towel on top of the receipt and place a heated iron on top. The heat from the iron will help the ink show up better and become legible again. This tactic is good for receipt paper that has faded ink but is otherwise in good condition. Run the receipt through a laminate pouch in a laminator.
If you`ve had your printer for a while and your print is still not bright or vibrant, it`s probably your time, temperature, or pressure. You need all three in order to sublimate on something – you need the correct time, the correct temperature, and the correct pressure.
CMYK Colour Mode
CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key/Black) is the colour space for printed materials, so you should be using the CMYK colour profile for any design that will be physically printed.

Envelop Printing Faded
ANSWER : Fuser can’t cause the problem. I’ve seen a lot of people break the transfer roller mounts when installing them improperly. If the transfer roller isn’t being pushed up against the back of the paper, then the toner won’t pull down to the front of the paper off of the toner cartridge. Push down on each end and it should spring back up.

Print file sent but no printing occurs
ANSWER : Been working on these since they first were released. Never seen a problem like yours. If it happens again, try doing an engine test, as it bypasses the formatter board. The engine test is located at the right side of the manual tray opening. Look for a hole in the side wall. Stick something like a paper clip into it to actuate the test button. It will then print a lined test page. If it does that, then it points to the formatter board as the cause of your problem.

Prints blank pages, won't print from computer
ANSWER : Don’t know why you replaced the fuser, but assuming you had print before, then it must have been something you did during the procedure. Only thing I can suggest is to recheck your work. Just because you reinstalled a connector doesn’t mean that it is seated firmly enough to work. Any flat ribbon connectors that you removed and reinstalled, check to see that the contacts are all flat and not peeled back.
