Hi,
I wa this problem with my HP CLJ 4550 printer. It has a fading black problem. The black is sometimes missing on a printed page. On the left side of the pages it is always ok. On the right side of the page almost no black. From the left to the right the black is fading gradually. It happens with printed pages from a software program on my pc. It also happens with the "selftest / menu print out" on the printer. Like font printout, menu printout, usage printout, engine test also. Sometimes there is no problem at all, soemtimes the black is fading. When it happens (or not) seems to be random. I already changed the black toner (was 6% left) for a (almost) new one (70% left). No succes. I tried shaking the toner. No succes. On one or two pages (on total of 100 ?) I ever saw one of the other colours was ever fading a bit. For the rest all coulour prints are just fine.
Who can assist?
thanks
marco
