the problem is not from the contrast but the toner inside ..probably it is the developer and the roller that needs to be cleaned...cause something was wrong with the cartridges last time when you changed them ..cause it is not supposed to lick like that ...anyway ..open it up ..and clean it good..also the developer and all it is ..after that I suggest to change the cartridge cause it is either licking or it is not good from the factory ...and it will print...it may print a few lines after that ..for a while until it cleans itself for good..but it is definitely not a setting or contrast issue..
