I have an HP LaserJet 4L that has sit unused for five years, when last used it printed pefectly. Now I get this:
I tested to open the printer door halfway in the process to see the print b efore the fuser and the mess is there, so not a fuser problem. In this test I noticed very little toner transferred to the paper, the part of the OPC that had already passed over the paper had the printed image sharp and clea n on it, and the toner transferred to the paper was very faint. Could that point to some missing voltage that should have caused the toner to be attra cted into the paper?
