The problem is usually caused by printing a file with font, size, or page formating errors on a printer with out of date firmware.Once the error has occurred, the only way to use the printer again is to cycle the power and delete the print job from the server or print queue.

Is the light printing the same for black and white vs color? Light printing on a side is not uncommon for these printers. It is usually caused by the laser optics getting dirty. But this usually shows up more in one color than the other. Such as something printed in yellow is fine while red is faded on one side. If the light on the right side printing is the same on all colors including black then I would suspect something with your transfer unit.
If you do notice that it us just on black or another color then it is definately time to get the laser optics cleaned.

Try holding down one of the buttons on the panel while plugging it in. Try each one, one at a time. Or press two at a time while plugging it in.

Replace the Magenta toner cartridge. It is defective.

When the printer receives a print job, it selects the tray by trying to match the requested paper type and size with what has been loaded in the trays. Using an "autoselect" process, it searches all available trays for the paper that satisfies the request, starting with the bottom tray and ending with the top tray (tray 1). The printer begins printing the job as soon as it finds the proper type/size.
Press the "Check" button, scroll down to "Paper Handling", press the Check button again, scroll down to Tray 2 Type and press the check button again. Select the type of paper you have in that cassette and confirm by pressing the check button.

your tonner cartridge may be going to be empty. plz try with a new one
