Hello,

Just a suggestion, but after you have reinstalled the printer and set them to default settings, use the printer's maintenence button if it has one and use it to clean your rollers and do any maintenence routine that is included in the properties of the printer's maintenence. Most printers will have this feature, but if not then you will have to have the printer serviced as mentioned by shotobaje.

Have the printer serviced. There is probably a smudge somewhere on the rollers inside.

Why do I get bleed through of print on pages I print out at bottom of page or shadow print on some?
Paper is too thin (use higher "pound" paper).
-or-
Toner is not of good quality (use HP Brand if possible)
-or-
Printer is set to dark or heavy in your page setup (change to normal or even light)

You can also make sure you are using an HP print driver instead of a generic print driver. Go to HP.com and search print driver for you model, download and install (if you don't already have an HP printer driver loaded on your PC).

How do I prevent my HP 1600 LaserJet from leaving a shadow of printing on the page?
Run 30-40 blank pages through it to take the image off the belt.
Go to Word or another WP program, call up a blank page and print it 30-40 times.

I have a hp laserjet 1600. We replaces all the cartridges and now I am getting shadow printing on the page please help what am I to do?
Did you replace cartridges with OEM HP cartridges or remanufactured/ no name cartridges? The failure rate for remanufactured color cartridges is terrible and it is likely that you have a bad cartridge.

Well you can start be cleaning the drums and adjusting the paper tray, if the printer is under warranty then get it checked. There was no recall for this printer, doesn't say that on hp website.
In case of any questions kindly revert.
