Troubleshooting
Print quality is poor (streaky, faded, or spots)
Ensure the cyan toner cartridge is correctly installed. Gently shake the cartridge horizontally to redistribute toner. Check if the cartridge is empty and needs replacement. Clean the printer's print head or drum unit as per the manufacturer's instructions.
Printer not recognizing the toner cartridge
Confirm the cartridge is compatible with your printer model. Re-seat the cartridge, ensuring it clicks into place. Check the electrical contacts on both the cartridge and the printer for any obstructions or damage.
Cyan colour is missing or inaccurate
Verify that the correct cyan cartridge is installed. Run a print head cleaning cycle or a calibration utility through your printer's control panel or software. Ensure all protective seals were removed during installation.
