Printer is putting a crease in the middle of the paper

Probably a damaged fuser.

Check to make certain that the fuser unit is not damaged. Often a crease or dimple is caused by foreign material on the fuser roller or the fuser is damaged. If the fuser is damaged, look into replacing the device, it may be cheaper than repairing the fuser.

hi just check the inside one paper gear will be if it is creases measn that is problem

If the printed image is smudged, as well as creased, you might have a torn Fuser fixing film.
You will need a technician to fix that.
If it is just a crease, just check that
1. Your paper is not damp. Try a fresh packet of paper
2. The paper input tray guides are set to the width of the apaer, to prevent the paper skewing as it feeds.

Good luck.

if the print is also smudged the fuser needs replacing

sounds like your fusing unit is at fault. still under warranty? also check the paper tray.

The fuser is shot....this is the unit that uses heat and pressure to fuse the toner to the page. It is primarily when the pressure roller wears that you get crinkling and bad fusing, but I'm sure the upper sleeve has seen better days as well.
These days it is (sadly) cheaper to replace this printer with a new little HP -only around $100 or so.


*please rate me :)

There sounds like there is somthing in the path of the printhead. Using a flash light, remove back cover of machine and look for a small piece of paper,etc. Be careful not to jam anything in to th machine. It may take running a thick piece of paper through manually with your hands to remove the object.

change toner cartridge will be OK!

i want the installation cd fo my printer HP PSC 1410
