When the Samsung ML-1865 toner cartridge is near the end of its life, the white streaks or light printing occurs and the LED blinks red. If this is a case, you can temporarily improve the print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridges to prevent printing of faded or light areas. In some cases, white streaks or light printing of the document will still occur even if you have redistributed the toner. The following steps will allow you to finish the ongoing printing task before you switch to replacing the toner cartridges.
- Open the top cover of the printer. When you open the top cover, make sure that the output tray is closed
- Pull off the Samsung ML-1865 toner cartridge out
- Thoroughly roll the cartridge contacts five to six times to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge
- If the toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off immediately with a dry cloth and wash the cloth in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric
