Hi @OCNC,

 

Doing a half-page test from tray-1 (when almost all the page goes inside the printer, open the cartridge door and interrupt the printing). Check if this pattern is done before or after it passes through the fuser. If this pattern is done before the fuser then your cartridge is faulty. If it is done after the fuser, then your fuser is faulty. Replace the faulty part.

 

I hope that helps.

 

Cheers!
