Hello.

I recently fixed a Paper Jam but I now get black dots appearing down the centre of the paper.

Any solution would be greatly appreciated.

That spacing refers to the Developer roller so the error is likely in the cartridge.

the spacing of the dots will tell you which component is causing the problem. Two most likely are a bad cartridge or either a dirty or failed fuser.

Hi there

Thanks for your reply. The dots are 1 inch apart down the centre of the page.

I hope this can help you let me know what needs to be done.
