Copies Still Faded After Changing Toner

The copier called for the toner to be changed, which I did, following the directions. However, the copies are still coming out faded.

Faded copies ,replaced toner cartridge, replaced waste toner container, cleaned inside printer

how long has the printer gone without maintenance? If your copies are still coming out light with new toner, it probably needs a new transfer roller or fuser or imaging unit.

Afficio 450 olridy change developer but the copy is stil faded

There are two service codes that you need to run 2801 and 2805 after you put the developer in the machine.

Press the yellow button on the copier. press 107 on the keyboard. Press and hold the clear button. Then run the service codes.

You have to run the codes first after changing the developer. You might have to replace the developer again to get the correct mixture.

Cyan Toner always prints faded.

It is the developer. All colours should be changed at the same time. This can be accessed via the right hand side of the machine, when you remove the cover. (where the output tray is)
