How do I fix smearing or streaking on my printed documents?
- Inspect your printer – check if the toner cartridge needs replacing or if it's been installed correctly.
- Clean the machine – dust and foreign materials may interfere with print quality. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning your printer.
- Check the paper – make sure the paper is suitable for your printer and matches the specifications indicated by the manufacturer.
- Change the printer settings – adjust the contrast, brightness, and other preferences as needed
- Always use document settings – when printing a document, make sure you select that document's specific settings rather than opting for the
default
settings.
