HP Laserjet 3330 printed dark page especially around the middle

Hi Jill,

Remove the Toner, Shake it a bit.. and try to install again. it should work

Regards,
Sean

Does this happen only with some documents/software? I have a different HP printer (a LaserJet) that does the same thing only with PDFs printed from another program. (This happens with PaperPort and browsers using the Adobe Reader plug-in, for example.) If I open Adobe Reader and then open the document in question, I can print multiple copies correctly.

I hope this helps.

Sounds like you have a software or driver conflict. Go to hp.com Support & Drivers and check to make sure you have the correct driver for Vista. Even if you do, try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver.

Also, while at hp, check for the latest Firmware update. Go to the printers menu and scroll to INFORMATION (or REPORTS). Select that sub-menu, then scroll to PRINT CONFIGURATION PAGE. Select thi and print out the page. Look for what is beside Firmware Datecode. If it is older than what is on the hp website, print out the instructions for installing the update.

Try to reinstall driver

if your laserjet print full black page. have you opened up the tube of laser into direct sun light ? take it to the dark place and clean the tube with tissue, but never to touch the tube with your hand. have a nice day.

Reinstall the driver..

PDF files are notoriously slow to print. You might invest in more printer memory.

no you cannot print on both sides automatically.you have to give the prints 2 times.at first the paper will print on 1 side then insert the same paper in the printer and give the remaining printout and it will print on the back side of the same paper.as you can do it manually but the automatic printing on both side facility is not in HP Laserjet 3330 printers.

I ran the hp toolbox "cleaning" mode too and it did not help the problem at all. I still have a dark smear concentrated in the middle of the page, and ghost images repeated lighter all the way down the page.
