Pure white pages. This is because frequently toner gets spilled or
stuck on the drum and on the paper path. Printing pure white allows
a "clean slate" sheet to pick up any excess toner inside the machine.
The office supply stores sell laser printer and fax cleaning sheets
that do the same thing for $3-4.00, but printing 20-50 blank sheets
(at 30-40ยข for the paper) will at least let you know if you are on
the right track.
there's also a seal in the cart that can get stiff and, well, quit
sealing, allowing your toner to leak out constantly, with results as
you describe.
If 20 or 30 white pages don't fix it, time for a new toner cart. you
can replace the seal but its a huge messy pain, and not really worth
it even if you can find the thing for sale anywhere anymore.
