Lanier LP020c laser colour printer horizontal lines

Lanier LP020c laser colour printer. I get horizontal lines in black printing. I have changed the black cartridge. Colour seems fine. I am wondering if it needs cleaning. I had a new drum a year ago but the printer is not used very often being in a small home office.

As if the cartridge is new.and colour is printing fine.then its not faulty cartridge or faulty printer.and yes you are absolutely right that it needs proper servicing.in the printer there are lens one lens is for colour and one lens is for black.if there is dust on the lens controlling black you will get lines and patches in black prinouts.but yes if the drum is got lines on it.that it will give same lines in the printouts.also you can get the drun serviced first before getting the printer serviced.a local printer repair shop does this drum servicing.also there comes a liquid to clean drum.you can get it from printer parts store.if want to do manually.but the shop will get it checked after serving in there printer.so it will be confirmed that is it drum or faulty /dusty lens in the printer. ----------- this will help.thanks.

Printing with horizontal dark lines

Did the dark lines start after the change? If so, maybe the drum on one of the cartridges is damaged. (Since you mentioned dark, I'd suspect the black cartridge.) Try replacing cartridges.

If that doesn't fix it, you can send it in for repair if it's under warranty. If it's outside warranty, I'd probably just replace it, unless you want to learn a lot about the innards of a laser printer.

Print text is grey not black

Have you tried cleaning the laser? Open the front door, on the R/H side there is a green lever, pull this forwards. Next on the R/H side of the printer pull off the small panel, inside is a green handle. Pull this in & out fully a couple of times to clean the laser lens. Hopefully your prints will now be back to normal. If not then there could be a problem with eitherthe black developer or the PCU. Try printing some horizontal coloured bars to see if all of the colours are affected or just the black.
