How to fix vertical white lines on Oki All in One Printer?
- A
  Aaron BerryAug 14, 2025
  If vertical white lines appear on your printed pages from the Oki All in One Printer, it could be due to several reasons. The LED head might be dirty, so try wiping it with a soft, lint-free cloth. Alternatively, the toner could be low; open the top cover and gently tap the cartridge to redistribute the toner, or replace the cartridge if the issue continues. Foreign materials in the image drum or a dirty light-shielding film on the image drum cartridge could also be the cause; in these cases, replace the image drum cartridge or wipe the film with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Why is my Oki All in One Printer printing light?
- S
  Sean MyersAug 18, 2025
  If your Oki All in One Printer's print is light, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the toner cartridge is properly seated by reinstalling it. If the toner is low, open the top cover and tap the cartridge a few times to evenly distribute the remaining toner, or replace the cartridge if needed. Also, check your paper: moist paper or unsuitable paper can cause light printing. Use paper stored in proper temperature and humidity conditions and ensure you are using recommended paper. Finally, incorrect paper thickness and type settings can affect print darkness; adjust the media type and weight in the Media menu, setting a thicker value if necessary. If you are using recycled paper, try setting a thicker value for media weight in the Media menu.

  Julie MartinezAug 28, 2025
  If the white area of the paper is lightly stained when printing with your Oki All in One Printer, the paper may contain static. Try using paper stored in proper temperature and humidity conditions. Also, using paper that is too thick can cause this issue, so try using thinner paper. In addition, low toner can cause a lightly stained white area. Open the top cover and tap the cartridge a few times to evenly distribute any remaining toner. If symptoms persist, replace the toner cartridge.

Why are there horizontal lines and spots periodically appearing on my Oki All in One Printer?
- E
  Erik YorkAug 31, 2025
  If you notice horizontal lines and spots appearing periodically on printouts from your Oki All in One Printer, the cause depends on the interval between these artifacts. If the interval is about 94mm (4in), the image drum (the green tube) may be damaged or dirty. Try wiping it lightly with a soft cloth; if it's damaged, replace the image drum cartridge. If the interval is about 30mm (1.2in), there may be foreign particles in the image drum cartridge; try opening and closing the top cover and printing again. If the interval is about 86mm (3.4in), the fuser unit is damaged, and you should replace it. Also, if the image drum cartridge has been exposed to light, replace it if the problem is not resolved.
