Why are my Kyocera Printer printouts too light?
- A
  Andrew ShieldsAug 31, 2025
  If your Kyocera printer's printouts are too light, there could be several reasons: * The printer might be in Manual Density mode. If so, select the correct density level. * The toner may not be evenly distributed. Try shaking the toner container from side to side several times. * You might need to replace the toner container if there's a message indicating it's time to add toner. * The paper could be damp; replace it with new paper. * EcoPrint mode might be enabled; disable it. * Ensure the paper type setting is correct for the paper you're using. * Try refreshing the drum.
