imageCLASS MF8280Cw Software & Color Issues

Spiffypix — Wed, 19 Apr 2023 13:31:32 GMT

My friend gifted me a MF8280cw color laser printer. I do have a few questions and I've had no luck with google.

1- Is there a utility app for this printer? I downloaded the Mac driver but I can't seem to find a utility.

2- I am having difficulty with color printing. the image is printing mostly without yellow toner until it gets to the bottom of the image. Toner amounts all say 'OK'

3- I keep getting failures on 'color correction' commands. Regardless of what color correction commands I ask, it always says 'failed' ?

Thanks for any help you can provide. I'm getting frustrated with it lol

Agree with Arthur. The imageCLASS MF8280Cw is an old unit. If it is experiencing operational issues, consider upgrading. The imageCLASS MF743Cdw would be the current equivalent.
