Diagnostics—all models

Heavy background

Poor development or poorly charged toner particles cause excessive 
background. This is more noticeable as the toner cartridge nears end–of–
life.

Partial blank image/white spots (no repeating pattern) 

FRU

Action

Toner cartridge (not a 
FRU)
PC Kit (not a FRU)

Make sure the toner cartridge and PC Kit are 
correctly installed and the high voltage contacts 
are clean. 

If the toner cartridge and PC Kit are installed 
correctly, try a new PC Kit first and then toner 
cartridge.

LVPS/HVPS 
Controller card

Check the contacts for correct installation and 
contamination where contact is made between 
the print cartridge assembly and LVPS/HVPS 
board. Clean as necessary. 

If this does not correct the problem, replace the 
following FRUs one at a time in the order shown:

• LVPS/HVPS board
• Controller card 

FRU

Action

Toner cartridge (not a 
FRU) 

Remove the toner cartridge assembly, and 
gently shake the assembly to evenly distribute 
the toner. 

If toner cartridge is low, try a new one.

Paper (not a FRU)

Make sure recommended paper is being used.
