I am getting verticle black streaks when I print, please help.

I am using the HP LaserJet 1300 13x printer cartridge. I have never experienced this problem before, did the thing with the 3 lights flashing and the paper goes through slowly, but the black lines are still present. Please help, need good copy, that's why I got the LaserJet printer.

This is the test to determine toner or fuser issue.
Print a test page
When you hear the paper feed into the machine open the top to stop the machine
Remove the toner cart.
You should be able to see the page with printing on it. (This is before the page hits the fuser)
If you can see the smudge or marks on the page the problem is most likely the cartridge but NOT the fuser.
If the page is clean the problem is most likely the fuser.
Hope this helps

Constantly has black streak on page even after cleaning

Welcome to FixYa!

If you are experiencing black streaks or bands in your printout such as the image below, one or more print cartridges might be low on ink or defective. If you are using non-HP print cartridges, no messages will appear on the device control panel or in the HP Toolbox.

Since this is caused by low on ink or defective print cartridges, the best thing to do is to replace the print cartridges.

Thank you for using FixYa. Keep me posted.

Leaves streaks vertically on paper changed cartridge still there. 2600n printer

when you open the front of the print you will see the streaks on the black transfer sheet.

Close the front door half way or until all the cartridge doors open.
You will see the same streaks on the problem cartridge(s) as on the transfer sheet.

Change that particular cartridge, let the printer recalibrate, and presto streaks are gone.

I have a HP 4100 printer. Installed new ink.Purple streaks

That's a neat trick. The 4100 is a printer that uses one BLACK toner cartridge. It doesn't print in color. And it doesn't use ink.
