      If your Olivetti Printer is printing blank sheets, it might be due to the image drum cartridge not being properly installed. Try reinstalling it. Also, check if the toner cartridge is empty or missing, and if so, install a new one.

    Why does my Olivetti PG L26 Special print with a grey background?
    • R
      rossdianaAug 27, 2025
      If your Olivetti Printer is printing with a grey background, static electricity, generally from dry environments, might be causing toner to stick to the background. To resolve this, change the paper to a smoother laser bond or use a humidifier.

    • D
      Donna JonesSep 18, 2025
      If your Olivetti Printer freezes or displays an error message when the computer is rebooted, booting the computer while the printer is on can cause a communications error. Turn the printer off before rebooting the computer.

    Why does the size of the top margin increase with each page printed on my Olivetti PG L26 Special Printer?
    • E
      Erika BlankenshipSep 14, 2025
      If the size of the top margin increases with each page printed from your Olivetti Printer, it is likely due to creeping text. This occurs when the number of lines per page in your software does not match the number of lines per page set on your printer. Many software packages assume 66 lines per page, but your printer’s default might be 64. Adjust the software accordingly, or set the LINES Per PAGE in the soft control panel to equal the lines per page in your software.

    Why is my Olivetti PG L26 Special on but must warm up before a job is printed?

      Jill Hardin MDSep 15, 2025
      If your Olivetti Printer is on but must warm up before a job is printed, Power Save mode is likely enabled to conserve energy. To eliminate the warm-up delay, change the Power Save setting.

    Why do pages curl excessively when printed from my Olivetti Printer?
    • D
      Dr. Matthew AndersonSep 6, 2025
      If your Olivetti Printer is printing pages that curl excessively, there are a few potential causes. First, ensure you are printing on the correct side of the paper. Look for an arrow on the paper package and install the paper print side down in the tray. Also, moisture in the paper due to improper storage can cause curling. Avoid storing paper in areas of excessive temperature and humidity and keep it in its protective wrapping. High humidity can also contribute to this issue; the recommended operating humidity is between 20-80%.

    Why does my Olivetti PG L26 Special print entire page faintly?
    • M
      mgraySep 3, 2025
      If the entire page prints faintly on your Olivetti Printer, it could be due to an empty toner cartridge. Install a new toner cartridge. Another possibility is that the LED array is dirty, so you should clean it.
