Laserjet printers are known for its exceptionally print capacity. Like, all electronic gadgets, the printers will also throw errors. If your Laserjet printer abruptly stops printing or produces faded prints, study the instructions given on this web page.
1) Incompatible ink cartridges or accumulation of dust in the printhead can be the reason for the faded print quality.
2) It is suggested to use compatible and genuine ink cartridges for better efficiency. Use HP SureSupply to order the ink.
3) Examine if the appropriate media type is used in the Laserjet printer. Do not use curled, wet, or wrinkled papers during printing.
4) If the ink level is critically low, the issue might reoccur. Replace the low ink level cartridge with a new one to fix the issue.
5)If the report is not satisfactory, align the ink cartridges. This is done for obtaining high-quality printouts.
6)Clean the ink nozzles with a clean, damp cloth. If the issue persists, call our toll-free number to fix it.
7)Use a flashlight to check for jammed papers. Remove the hindrances present on the carriage path.
8)Download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor tool to identify and rectify the printing issues.

Faded Stripe in the middle of the page

You need to clean the drum When I was working for the City There was the same problem with the Laser printers. Check the Manuel and see if there is a page on cleaning the print drum on your machine. Also you may try Talking the cartage out cleaning there as well It seems you are picking this up form somewhere after the print My Guess would be the print drum? You may also have to replace the drum as well. I am guessing that this is a laser printer? if not then there are other solutions.

I have an HP 5550 Series Deskjet printer. Only recently, I have encountered difficulty printing labels. I have double-checked the Printing Properties, including label size, label paper size, Avery paper #,...

This printer have the capabilites of sense the size of label, each colomn width.
So, you must set the right size of colomn width, in your application (ms. word) to match label width.

May this help.

Faded print on one side of page

I have a SCX-4100 Samsung, replaced the tonger cartridge, it was working fine for a few hundred sheets of printing, but after that, the left side of the page was printed very light, faded.
If I run the "Clean Drum", it will print a litter better, but still faded.
What can I do to correct this problem?
Thank you
