That effect is called ghosting, and yes, toner is sticking on the drum and is being re-printed. There are two drums it could do this on, one would be the OPC drum (which is part of the print cartridge). and the other possible one is on the fuser. If I were you I would first try a new print cartridge (part# 310-7945) which is most likely. If that doesn't fix it then try replacing the fuser (part# UG297). Also, make sure you use a dell print cartridge becuase a generic one could cause this to happen.
Iteminc.com has both these genuine items in stock and can ship same day until 7pm est.
If you decide it is the fuser, here is a video to replace that
