Subject: Re: Laser printer double printing to thicken toner

cboy2us,

I had the problem of porous toner with a HP laserjet 1320. The printer came with a toolbox that allowed a setting of print density, but HP did not upgrade the software for Vista and the drivers do not allow this setting.

Pulsar has a tip on their web site for setting toner density with this link

http://victechsoftware.com/ljconfig.html

My printer is not listed under those supported. However, it seems to work ok. The default setting is 3, but I can jack it up to 5.

Also, I use Pulsar GreenTRF foil to seal the transferred toner.

These two fixes cured my porous toner problem.
