Hi Tracy,
If faded prints happen even after replacing the toner cartridge or if your current cartridge has enough toner, it is most likely be due to dust at the laser reflecting mirrors inside the printer.
I have worked/ serviced similar Laserjet Color Printer with same issue.
Actually, faded prints are due the the dust/ toner dust accumulated on the optics (mirrors and lenses) inside the printer, which refect the laser beams to form prints. Hence the image is not produced properly. This needs professional hands for servicing and cleaning of the optics inside the printer.
Rest assure that the printer requires ONLY CLEANING OF THE MIRRORS, which are inside the printer. So, it is advised that you get the printer serviced by any printer repair/ service professional. (Please note that the mirrors, lenses and scanner assembly inside such printers is extremely complex and can get damaged very easily especially the mirrors).

Hope it would help. If you need any clarification, let me know
Good Luck!

Print on left hand side of page is faded as you look to the middle and right hand side of page print is clear

Place one hand either side if printer,
Gently shake the printer left and right a few times without lifting it off the desk..

What happens is that when a laser printer is moved and is not kept level the toner will move to one side or the other, the gentle shake evens out the toner.

Fuju Xerox C525a not printing right edge

Clean the inside of the printer using the cleaning rod. See page 48 of the user manual.
Open front cover,
Pull out lever on the right side. This opens the access window cover on the right side of the printer.
Inside this access window is the cleaning rod handle. Pull it out and push it back in several times to clean printer.
When done push the rod back in and push the lever on the front right panel back in. Close the front cover and you're done.
Do this every time you replace the black toner.

I have fading on the right hand side. Printer Dell 3100CN

Dell printers are junk. But you have put a lot of money into this thing. Check the alignment of the black drum, could be that something is keeping if off track a little bit.

Magicolor 2400W - Printing Problem

check the green levers at the top of the fuser unit that have envelope icons on them. They reduce pressure on the fuser assembly for thick stock. It is possible that one side is up the other down, causing uneven pressure across a page.

Print fading down right hand side

I was able to fix it by taking off the top of the printer. This involved taking off 4 screws on the top of the printer. I then had to disconnect the wires going to the control panel by unhooking them from the right side. I then located a thin rectangular box which I'm assuming houses the laser. I removed this with 4 more screws and turned it over. There was a little metal flap that I moved back and below was the mirror the lasers shoot on before going onto the toner.

In the same spot where I was having fading, I noticed a lot of toner on the mirror, so I cleaned it of, put it back together, and the fading was gone.

This was after I tried a new toner and maintenance kit.

Hope this helps
