Hello Anonymous-81541,
I am from Dell Social Media and Community.
The toner cartridges may be low or need to be replaced. Confirm the amount of toner left in each toner cartridge.
a Check the toner level in the Status tab in the Status Monitor.
b Replace the toner cartridges as necessary.
If you are using non-Dell brand toner cartridges, disable the Non-Dell Toner option.
a Launch the Tool Box, and click Non-Dell Toner on the Printer Maintenance tab.
b Ensure that the On check box is not selected.
Disable the Toner Saving Mode in the printer driver.
a On the Advanced tab, ensure that the Toner Saving Mode check box is not selected.
The print media surface may be uneven. Try changing the Paper Type setting in the printer driver. For example, change the plain paper to thick.
a On the Paper/Output tab, change the Paper Type setting.
Ensure that the eight yellow ribbons are correctly removed from the Print Head Device (PHD) unit. See "Removing the Print Head Device (PHD) Ribbons" and "Installing a PHD Unit." If not, remove the ribbons.
Ensure that the dispense motor for each toner cartridge functions properly.
a Launch the Tool Box, and click Machine Check on the Diagnosis tab.
b Select Dispense Motor Check (Yellow), Dispense Motor Check (Magenta), Dispense Motor Check (Cyan), or Dispense Motor Check (Black) from the drop-down list box, and click the Start button.
c Click the Play of Sound button to check the motor sound.
d Repeat steps b and c to perform Dispense Motor Check for the rest of the toner cartridges.
If you need any further assistance, message me on twitter. I will be glad to help.
