Detailed explanation-1: -If the paper is too thick, glossy or not designed for laser printing, ghosting will most likely occur. Dust and debris inside the printer can also cause ghosting as too much dirt can interfere with the drum units, transfer units and fuser units.
Detailed explanation-2: -Ghost prints happen when the drum or fuser unit within your printer become faulty. Because a fault with this element won’t heat the particles of the toner to a high enough temperature, the marks being made on the paper are much lighter in colour and appear more faded than typical documents.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dirty nozzles, leftover toner, debris, or dust can interfere with your printer and cause ghosting. Run the printer’s built-in cleaning function multiple times, and print a test page between each. Repeat this process until the ghosting issue disappears.
Detailed explanation-4: -Most of the time, this is an alignment issue and can be solved at the printer side. There is, on at least one model printer, something called a “Line-Feed Calibration” that might be out of whack. This might be found on the printer control panel > Setup Menu > Tools.
