Samsung ML-1450 printer

Every time I print, there is a shadow further down the page of what I am printing and general black roller marks. I have tried cleaning the roller inside with some wipes but this makes no difference at all. The print quality apart from this is fine and the writing is all dark enough but all the prints look very messy because of this.

Sounds like your PCU is starting to fail. There is a cleaner roller that removes any remained toner and this could be shot. Try replacing the PCU. If this makes no difference it could be the fuser though this si less likely.

PCU - photo conductor unit. The cartridge you slide in and out that helps create the image

Samsung ML-2010 Mono Laser Printer leaves unwanted marks on page.

if older printer or well used printer (All laser printers if they have print quality issues - it is mostly either the toner or the fuser). the only way to tell is get (borrow) a toner and see if problem is the same or remove the fuser (the hot thing in the printer) and see if the "ironing" unit or fuser rollers are dirty or worn out or scratched

Samsung ML-1450 "Time out" error

I would try to reinstall the drivers for this printer and make sure it is your default or selected printer. It sounds like the drivers were changed or corrupt. Any new software install may of done this. Also try to let the printer be unpluged from power for 24 hours.

Red Error Light on Samsung ML-1450 printer. I have owned a Samsung ML-1450 for some time. It has never caused me any trouble. However, it needed a new print cartridge (which was replaced). Now that I turn on the printer, I get a red error light just after a brief green data light. Cancel does not reset or clear the problem, and the printer does not cycle or make any sound once it is turned on. There is no paper jam, and the doors are all securely shut.
