It is important to know that the print quality of a printer may vary according to the type of paper we use. The following types of paper are advisable for a smooth printing- thin paper (16 to 20lbs), plain paper (2o to 28 lbs), thick paper (28 to 43 lbs), and bond paper, envelop and recycled paper. Check the environment of the place where you keep the printer. The advisable environment for the printer is 50 to 90 degree Fahrenheit and 20% to 80% to humidity. High temperature and humidity can increase the amount the background shading. Ensure that you choose the right media type for the printer driver.

You can make the right media selection by going to the printer driver properties, choosing the basic tab and finding the drop-down menu for media type selection. Also, check the user’s guide for the recommended media types and brother printer driver media type setting. Try to select a few different setting such as thick paper, envelope paper, recycled paper and thicker paper as one option may work better than another depending on the type of media you are using. It is important to note that thicker and thicker paper and envelopes should be fed through the MP tray. Printing on the envelope fed from the paper cassette is not a wise thing to do as it may cause ghosting and jamming of the printers. Now check the print quality by pressing menu and then click on start.

Drum cleaning- cleaning of the drum unit is a very important factor. The below-mentioned steps should be followed for cleaning the drum unit using an automatic process through the machine and a manual process using an alcohol swab or a cotton swab lightly moistened with isopropyl alcohol (note that the isopropyl alcohol is flammable and should be kept away from heat and flame). Repeat the process several times to remove certain kinds of foreign material from the drum unit surface. If the foreign material does not come out even after several cleaning then you might have to change the drum.

  • Now remove the toner cartridge from the drum. For that, hold down the blue lock lever on the right side of the drum unit and lifting the toner out. Handle the toner cartridge carefully. If in any case, the toner spills on your hand then immediately clean by either wiping it off or cleaning it with cold water.
  • A shiny reddish brown roller is present inside the drum. This roller is highly photosensitive and transfers toner from the cartridge onto the paper in a form of the image that needs to be printed.
  • Now clean the drum roller by gently wiping the surface of the drum with an alcohol swab or isopropyl alcohol (strength should be 7 to 90%). Make sure while cleaning you check the entire drum properly and ensure a proper cleaning.
