Why does my printer keep jamming?

Overloading the paper tray is frequently the cause of paper jams. Make sure your printer paper is correctly placed into the tray. Examine the printer for any wreckage before printing. Previous paper jams, torn paper, printing tags, or other external objects in the printer can cause reoccurring jams. Below is the general guide for removing paper and one can move to the next step in case the first is not applicable:

  1. Find and remove any paper stuck in the loading tray
  2. Clearing the jam from the rear of the printer. The backside of the printer has either a rear access panel or a two-sided printing accessory.
  3. If all the above steps did not work, you may try to remove the jammed paper by pulling it out from under the front cover carefully. This step is generally not advised and should be the last alternative, as it could cause damage to the printer.

Why is my printer printing faded text?

Light prints can be an indication of improper printer settings, a defective printer component, or a defective toner cartridge. Here are some troubleshooting guidelines you can use to diagnose the problem:

  1. Check the toner darkness settings – Try removing the cartridges and shaking them before putting them back in.
  2. Check the media settings – menu>>paper menu>>paper size/type>>tray
  3. Heads need to be cleaned – This method is simple to do and loosens up the ink to reinstate flow again. Remove the cartridges using a clean, moist cloth, wipe the print heads from front to back.
  4. Check the toner cartridge – Go to menu>>reports>>device statistics. Look for the heading that says, “Supply Information” and the subheading “Sides on Cart”. This will tell you exactly how many pages have been printed on the toner cartridge. If it has reached the maximum print life, the printer may have used up the toner, and its simply time to replace the cartridge.
  5. If nothing of the above worked, the most probable cause is that your toner cartridge is simply defective.

Why is my new ink cartridge not printing?

  1. Check if the Cartridges have a protective tape as most ink cartridges ship with a small strip of protective tape covering the print nozzle.
  2. Cartridges are typically kept flat or upside down for weeks or months before being used. And so, the ink settles at the other end of the cartridge and is unable to directly feed the print head. The easiest solution for this is to open the box and put the cartridge upside down for a few minutes before using it. Further, get a moist paper towel, and set cartridge print head down onto it, holding it there for three minutes. Lastly, install the cartridge into your printer and print a few test pages.
