Can anyone suggest what causes these lines across the page?

Is a new toner cartridge likely to fix this?

Edit: Line separation is 62.5mm

Edit 2: Thank you to everyone who replied. I've ordered a new toner cartridge and will update this if that solves the problem 🫑

Final update: A new toner cartridge fixed it. It's now printing perfectly! Thank you.

I think measuring the distance in millimeters will get you to a better idea which part is causing this.

I found a manual that says for toner cartridge: Drum is 62.9mm, Developer roller 35.1mm, Charging roller 26.7mm, Supply roller 47mm

Fuser parts are: Pressure roller 75.4mm or Fuser roller 77.5mm

You should be able to measure from 1 line to the next to see what’s closest. Sometimes they are hard figure out when they are similar sizes but these are different enough it should get you an idea where to start.

62.5mm so hopefully I can just replace the toner cartridge 😁 Thanks for replying
