A modern printer provides high quality printing. But sometimes the user is faced with a situation when the printed document is too faded, gray instead of black.
Instructions
Step 1
In the event that the print quality of the laser printer has deteriorated and there is no apparent reason, first check the presence of toner. Lack of toner usually manifests itself as lighter vertical areas of text on the printed document. If insufficient toner is the cause of poor printing, remove the cartridge and shake it slightly from side to side. This will redistribute the remaining toner, which will allow you to print a dozen more pages in normal quality.
Step 2
Check if you have Toner Save Mode turned on. If you, for example, work with a text editor Word, open: "File" - "Print". Select "Properties" in the opened window. Then on the Paper / Quality tab, click the Advanced button. In the window that opens, at the bottom of it, there is an option to enable / disable the economy mode. If Eco Mode is shown to be on, select the Off option.
Step 3
Some printers have a button for print quality. If you have just such a printer, check in which position it is - pressed or not.
Step 4
Poor print quality can be the fault of toner - if it is of poor quality or intended for a different printer model. If the printer starts to print poorly soon after refilling the cartridge, the problem is most likely in the toner. Replace low-quality toner, when refilling the cartridge (it is quite possible to refill it yourself), make sure that no traces of old toner remain in the hopper.
Step 5
It is possible that the printer is working properly, and an inexperienced user wants to see the text printed in bold, but does not know how to do it. The absence of bold type is interpreted by him as "bad print". If you need to select all the text in bold, in the Word editor click: "Edit - select all", then click the black letter "g" in the format bar. You can select the required panels by opening: "View - Toolbars".
