Why does my Oki C530dn have vertical white lines on the page?
- B
  Brenda WilliamsAug 15, 2025
  If you see vertical white lines on the printed page from your Oki Printer, it could be due to several reasons. The LED head might be dirty, so open the top cover and wipe the LED heads with a soft, lint-free cloth. Another cause might be low toner; in this case, open the top cover and tap the cartridge a few times to evenly distribute any remaining toner. If the problem continues, replace the toner cartridge. Foreign materials in the image drum or a dirty light-shielding film of the image drum cartridge could also be the cause; for the former, replace the image drum cartridge, and for the latter, wipe the LED heads with a soft, lint-free cloth.

  ajamesAug 18, 2025
  If your Oki Printer's printing is light, there could be several reasons. First, make sure 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 redistribute the toner; if the issue persists, replace the toner cartridge. Also, ensure that the paper isn't moist and that you're using paper stored in proper temperature and humidity conditions. Verify that the paper is suitable for the printer, and adjust the media type and weight settings in the Media menu if the thickness and type of paper are inappropriate. If you are using recycled paper, try setting one value thicker for media weight in the Media menu.

What causes horizontal lines and spots to appear periodically on Oki C530dn Printer prints?
- B
  Brent GreenAug 26, 2025
  If you are seeing horizontal lines and spots appear periodically on your Oki Printer prints, the cause depends on the interval between the lines. If the interval is about 4 inches (94 mm), the image drum (the green tube) may be damaged or dirty. Try wiping it lightly with a soft cloth or replace the image drum cartridge if it is damaged. If the interval is about 1.2 inches (30 mm), there may be foreign particles in the image drum cartridge; try opening and closing the image drum cartridge and printing again. If the interval is about 3.4 inches (86 mm), the fuser unit may be damaged, and you should replace it. Finally, if the image drum cartridge has been exposed to light, replace it if the problem persists.

Also, check if the toner is low by opening the top cover and tapping the cartridge a few times to evenly distribute the toner; if the issue continues, replace the toner cartridge.
