Frequently asked questions
Yes, it is a physical sensor issue. It prevents the machine from verifying toner density effectively.
Avoid high-pressure air as it may blow toner deeper into the internal assembly. A soft cloth is preferred.
Yes, if the sensor cannot read density, print colors may appear washed out or misaligned.
