What’s Normal 🖨️

👉 With a properly working cartridge:

  • Toner is fused onto the paper (won’t easily rub off)
  • Pages feel clean and dry
  • No black powder on your hands

That’s how laser printing is supposed to work.

When Smudging Might Happen

In some cases, you may notice smudging if:

  • Paper is too thick or not suitable
  • Printer hasn’t fully heated (rare at start)
  • Low-quality toner doesn’t bond well

Quick Check 👍

  • Try standard office paper
  • Print another page to confirm
  • Avoid touching prints immediately if still warm
