Printer I have a samsung 1710 printer. It has started leaving marks on the side of the pages that it prints (like the drum is dirty or something). Every page has smudgy marks down the side. Is there anything I can do to clean this drum? Would a new print cartridge solve the problem? Catherine

I have a Samsung 1710 laser printer. It prints the text fine but there is a 1/64 (aproximately)wide vertical line of broken printing on the right side of each page. Also, the paper does not appear to be...

Sounds like the printer cartridge is bad. The first thing I would try is replacing that and then see where you are. The broken line on the right side is likely due to a worn imaging drum coating, common with Samsung.

Samsung ML 1710 won't print second page

i'm thinking it's a config-related problem. i've seen a comparable problem already. could you check the settings in the printer software? there is setting that says "print first page from different tray" if its box is checked, the printer wants to print the rest of the print job from another tray, and will block when there is no other tray available.
if you find this setting is not marked, then i propose to delete the printer driver and all settings and then downloading the most recent driver from the manufacturer's website and installing that one.

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
