Homebrew PCBs

The 6l is a good printer usually only suffering from multiple feed problems.
A lot of rebuilds are junk, many from China now. If you can scan something
that shows this and attach to email and send to me at rhb57 -at-
windstream.net (in normal @ email format of course) I can see what I think
it might be. I've rebuilt maybe 500 5L and 6L printers since they came out.

  Subject: [Homebrew_PCBs] Laser printer help


  Looking for some advice from laser printer people here, since it looks
  like so many people use the toner transfer, which I would like to give
  a try.

  I am using a HP Laserjet 6l found in the attic, dusty has been
  sitting. I purchased a remanufactured toner cartridge for it (because
  I am cheap).

  So now the print comes out unsatisfactory. For example, if I print a
  black and white checkerboard on an 8.5 x 11 sheet, I see waves in the
  lines that vary contrast. Also getting what looks like some type of
  alley down the center where some small roller hits the paper and causes
  a variance.

  So I was wondering if anyone knows that if laserjet 6L printers are
  just junk - and to not bother trying to use this for anything other
  then printing letters, or I should go head and replace the fuser film,
  or possibly a NEW toner cartridge will solve the issues?
