●
If dots or streaks appear in only one of the groups, replace the toner cartridge that correlates with that
group.
●
If dots appear in more than one group, print a cleaning page. If this does not solve the problem,
determine if the dots are always the same color; for example, if magenta dots appear in all five color
bands. If the dots are all the same color, replace that toner cartridge.
●
If streaks appear in multiple color bands, contact HP. A component other than the toner cartridge is
probably causing the problem.
Clean the product
Print a cleaning page
During the printing process paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the product and can cause
print-quality issues such as toner specks or spatter, smears, streaks, lines, or repeating marks.
Use the following procedure to print a cleaning page.
1.
From the Home screen on the product control panel, touch the Setup button.
2. Touch the Service menu.
3. Touch the Cleaning Page button.
4. Load plain letter or A4 paper when you are prompted.
5. Touch the OK button to begin the cleaning process.
The product prints the first side and then prompts you to remove the page from the output bin and
reload it in Tray 1, keeping the same orientation. Wait until the process is complete. Discard the page
that prints.
Check the scanner glass for dirt and smudges
Over time, specks of debris might collect on the scanner glass and white plastic backing, which can affect
performance. Use the following procedure to clean the scanner.
