    Why are the pages from my Oki B4100 Printer curling excessively?
    • S
      Steven ThompsonSep 3, 2025
      If your Oki Printer is producing pages that curl excessively, it could be due to several reasons. You might be printing on the wrong side of the paper, so turn the paper over in the tray, placing it print side down. Moisture in the paper or improper storage can also cause curling, so avoid storing paper in areas of excessive temperature and humidity, and keep it in protective wrapping. High humidity can also cause this issue; the recommended operating humidity is between 20-80%.

      Kathleen ButlerSep 6, 2025
      If your Oki Printer is printing pages with repetitive marks, it could be due to a damaged image drum cartridge, causing marks every 1.6 inches (4.06 cm) due to surface nicks and scratches. Try generating a cleaning page, as the repetitive marks may be temporary.

      If you're experiencing vertical white streaking or faint areas on pages printed from your Oki Printer, it could be due to low toner or a worn-out drum. Try replacing the toner cartridge.
