One of two issues can cause this. The toner cartridge may not be fully seated into the photoconductor unit. This can cause the seal between the two to break, allowing toner to leak out. The other possibility is that the toner cartridge or the photoconductor unit may be damaged.
This error message is usually the result of a cartridge that is not firmly seated in its designated slot. To troubleshoot the problem, begin by completely removing the cartridge from its port. Reinstall the cartridge by positioning it so that it snaps into place and is securely fastened in its slot.
To test if cartridge is damaged, wipe its entirety with a dry lint-free cloth. If there is a stain away from the contacts, there might be a crack in the cartridge. If there are no leaks, properly install the cartridge again. Do a print test to ensure printing quality.
Leaking that`s particularly excessive tends to mix with blood, sweat, and plasma, alongside other bodily fluids as well as similar things which appear on the upper layer of your skin. Ink that`s leaking from a tattoo is actually a good sign, and it`s quite normal.
Since our ink is a dye ink, it soaks into the paper you use, hence the ink will always bleed through the paper to some extent.
Direct thermal printers print images directly on the material without the use of ribbon, toner or ink. The media itself (e.g., thermal paper, thermal labels, etc.) is heat sensitive and chemically treated so that it blackens when passed under the thermal print head.
Bubbles on tattoos, while not necessarily a “normal” part of the tattoo healing process, are more common than you think and are easy to develop. A bubble on your tattoo is caused by too much moisture in your tattooed skin.
Inkjet printer paper is designed to absorb ink as soon as it is sprayed. When ordinary paper is used or if laser printer paper is used, it will cause inkjet bleeding or smearing.
Laser printers work by using high heat to fuse powdered ink to paper. There is no bleeding effect, because laser toner does not absorb into paper.

Epson Artisan 837 Cyan Ink Blotches-leaking
ANSWER : Just encountered same problem (with light magenta) and discovered it was my own fault! There’s an adhesive-backed piece of aluminum foil that serves as one wall of the ink channels in the white plastic transition junction where it connects to the printhead. In trying to clean the printhead, I apparently nicked that foil, but didn’t notice when I reassembled, so I created a real mess in the printer. I cleaned everything up and then carefully (to cover the damage but not plug the ink channel) smeared a light coating of Goop household cement over the nicked hole, let it cure for about 6 hours, put everything together, and the leaking stopped.

Epson ink cartridge leaking?
ANSWER : Posting this cause it worked for me. I have an Artisan 837 that was leaving pools of blue on the page. I tried Epson’s recommendation of cleaning the print path by pressing the copy button on the control panel (with nothing on the flatbed). Printed 5 pages and the last 2 were clean. Did a test print and the problem was back. Repeated a few times with the problem reocccuring. Switched out the cartridge. no better and now the printer doesn’t recognize its own brand cartridge. Yet, it accepts the 3rd party one.

Toner Leaking
ANSWER : You don’t say whether you are using questionable remanufactured toner cartridges or how old the cartridges you installed are. If it really is toner spilling out, then the most likely cause is the waste toner section. Whatever leftover toner is on the drum after the print job is done is swept into the waste bin. If it fills up, much like an overfilled trash can, it spills out. You can take the old cartridge, since it’s not doing you any good anyway, and poke a hole in it and dump out the waste toner. Then cover the hole with tape. Make sure you got the right half, that’s the one that has the drum installed on it.
