Paper jams
A printer paper jam is a general problem that we have often see while using our printers. Few reasons of paper jams are dust, poor quality, worn out or incorrect paper types. Using proper papers, removing dust & dirt can fix problems related to paper jams. If the problems still persists then we need to check roller part in printers. It is important that we take care while pulling out the paper when stcuk. Most of the branded printer rollers are easily accessible, but this is a major probelms in non branded or cheap printers. Make sure that you do not use a used or damaged page for re printing as it often tends to get stuck in printer.

Toner spreads or does not stay on the paper
Sometimes words or images come of the paper on a slght touch, possible reason are as below
First, the fuser assembly is damaged or exhasuted and needs a replacement. Best solution is to change the fuser assembly. I I would not sugggest to repai the fuser assembly as this is a consumable part of printer and not worth to fix.
Second, the toner cartridgeis letting too much toner flow at a time. Replace the toner cartridge in case of black-and-white laser printer. For Color laser printer, replace the cartridge which is causing the problem.
Third, Clean the toner spilled in case which should fix the problem.

Trouble printing on envelopes
Envelopes may cause trouble to your laser printers. Get envelopes that are close to 20-lb paper in weight & thickness. Make sure the adhesive on the envelope is capable of withstanding the heat that the fuser creates out to keep the printing on the page. Even if you dont use adhesive, print outs will be already sealed. If envelopes are comming out wrinkled then it means they are too stiff for the paper path, open the back cover to let them exit.
