Page is printed but fade

I have problem with my HP Colorlaserjet 2550L, it prints okay, but splits in the middles, the left side of the page is fading out so the image is half and is not complete and the right side is printing in full color.

Yeah these a just new toner catridges and I dont know how to do and alignment and I never cleaned it, because these a just second sets of toners to be use by this printer. we have used it like 6 months ago when its brand new after the toners run out, the print is not used until just a few a weeks ago when we replaced the toners that the problem happens, when printing say a full page picture the page is printed in half and the left side image is fading in to the centre of the page and only the right side is print in full color...

The toner cartridge is faulty. It is possible that when you pulled out the strip that the whole thing didn't come out. Return the cartridge (with a couple of printed sheets to demonstrate printing) and the receipt and you should get a replacement.

Color is offset and blurred. There is no problem printing in black. Printing test page shows the same symptoms.

Hello
The color of HP LJ 2600n fades due to following reasons
1. the color cartridge near to empty 2. due to dust on reflection mirrors inside the printer
if the color cartridges are OK, then you need help of HP technician support, because cleaning of mirrors is very technical in nature for 2600n.
Dusty Environments can lead to Laser Scanner Contamination. The dust layer on the mirrors prevents proper transmission of the laser output in the imaging system leading to faded colors on the printed page. The initial stages of this failure typically occur in the magenta or yellow color planes as faded or light color. Often the left side is more faded than the middle.
You may need to contact the nearest Authorized Service Tech and get teh Laser Scanner replaced with the new released service part that has a mirror in a location where the dust ideally cannot reach easily.
Also, please ensure that the printer is relocated from the current location to a more dust free zone.
Hope this helps, if so do rate the solution

Faded print on both sides.

The scanner assembly is dirty. Remove all the toner and blow with blower or cold air dryer, in the gaps at the back of the printer. If it still printers faded then the printer must be stripped and the scanner taken out and serviced. (About 1.5 hours work by expierenced technician)

Good luck

HP 2840 will not print on 3 inches of left side of page

Take the toner cartridge out, shake it back and forth, and turn it around in a circle a few time. Put it back in the priter, and print. Order a new toner cartridge.

If this is an inkjet printer, ignore this response.

While printing in black middle of page fades out both sides of the page print well. this is about a 1 inch fade out in middle of page.

Replace the drum of the particlular color cartridges. To know which color you have to print in single color one by one. If problem persist then replace transfer belt .

Faded print on one side of page

I have a SCX-4100 Samsung, replaced the tonger cartridge, it was working fine for a few hundred sheets of printing, but after that, the left side of the page was printed very light, faded.
If I run the "Clean Drum", it will print a litter better, but still faded.
What can I do to correct this problem?
Thank you
TT
