Re-install the toner\/drums and try again.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n <\/p>\n
If the steps above don\u2019t correct the issue, you may need to replace the fuser unit in the printer. It may have a build-up of dirt and cannot be cleaned manually.<\/p>\n

Here are the differences on what causes lines being printed on inkjet and laser printers:<\/p>\n
Inkjet Printers<\/strong> – Caused by a build-up of dried ink on the printer head or cartridge nozzles. Lines will be more even and missing whole rows.<\/p>\nLaser printers<\/strong> – Caused by dirt or dust being present on the drum cylinder or fuser unit. Lines will look more random and like smudges.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item _builder_version=”4.27.4″ title=”How often should you maintain your printer to prevent lines?”

This really depends on how often you print. If it’s daily, you may find that the printing process keeps the printer in a fairly good state and you should only run cleaning processes once per month \/ check cartridges once per month.<\/p>\n
If you print once every few months, this is when ink build-up can occur, check cartridges before you print on each occasion and clean if you spot build up of ink. Run the printers built in cleaning process after each use.<\/p>\n

No, sometimes the ink cartridge, print head or toner \/ drum can have so much build up, or have been left for too long in between cleaning and they need to be replaced to get the printer working correctly again.<\/p>\n
It is worthwhile keeping your printer as well maintained as possible.<\/p>\n
