Has the sealing tape been removed from the print cartridge?
The sealing tape might not have been removed from the print cartridge. Remove the print
cartridge from the device, pull out the sealing tape, and reinstall the print cartridge. See the
start guide for information about installing a print cartridge.
Is the print cartridge low on toner?
If the print cartridge is low on toner, the copies appear faded.
Is the original of poor quality?
The accuracy of the copy depends on the quality and size of the original. If your original is too
light, the copy might not be able to compensate, even if you adjust the contrast.
Does the original have a colored background?
Colored backgrounds might cause images in the foreground to blend into the background, or
the background might appear in a different shade.
