Make sure that your page settings are set to print all pages and to print every page. Settings that cause some pages not to print are `manual duplexing`, `print every other page`, `print odd pages`, `print on both sides`, or similar settings.
Make sure your printer is securely connected to your PC. The ink isn`t running out and the ink cartridges are not clogged. There`s enough paper in the paper tray. Restart your printer and give it a refersh, it could be just a glitch.
Partial prints are a common issue with printers and there are several main reasons it can occur: Problem with the print spooler (on Windows PCs) Overload of the GPU on later model Macs. Dodgy USB cord.
Printing on 5% = 480 pages (the official page yield). Printing on 10% = 240 pages. Printing on 20% = 120 pages. Printing on 40% = 60 pages.
A typical ink cartridge will yield 250 to 300 pages depending on the color density of the prints. The yield of a typical toner cartridge in a laser printer is between 2,500 and 3,000 pages. Some larger laser printers can even have toners that will yield up to 30,000 pages!
Ink cartridges can usually last two or three years if properly packaged and stored. But in a standard case, they will eventually dry out and become useless after this period. However, many major ink cartridge makers don`t put expiration dates on their cartridges.
Change Print Settings Windows
Select the printer you`d like to use, and select the Properties button. Under the Layout tab, you can choose the method you want under the Print on Both Sides section. By choosing None, the document will print single-sided.
Deskjet printers are best for users who don`t have a lot of printing needs. They have lower printing costs per page, making them great for budget-conscious households. They also have higher resolution than inkjet printers, which makes them good for making detailed graphics or documents with intricate fonts.
Thermal cartridges are used in inkjet as well as Deskjet printers. They have several “jets” or tiny nozzles, and heat is used to deploy the droplets of ink through these nozzles. Small heaters present inside the cartridge heat up the ink until bubbles are formed.
Adjust the paper size setting
In the application you want to print from, click File, and then click Print. Select your printer from the Printer drop-down list. Click Paper Size. Select the paper size that matches the size and type of paper loaded in the printer tray, and then click OK.

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.
