Hello. I recently had to replace the starter toner from my color laser printer. However, upon installing the new ones, the prints are incredibly low quality, with the colors very faded.
A couple things to note
-The toner is official canon product, and brand new
-I have shaken the toner several times
-Auto Adjust Gradation only offers Quick Adjust (Not Full Adjust), which fails every time
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Faded prints with new, official Canon toner suggest a printer issue beyond just the cartridges. Double-check that all protective seals were fully removed and the toners are correctly installed. Inspect the drum unit for its lifespan or errors in the printer menu. Try cleaning the transfer belt and running internal cleaning cycles. While unlikely, verify color settings and consider updating the printer driver or firmware. Since Auto Adjust Gradation fails, especially the "Full Adjust," contact Canon support as it indicates a potential problem with the printer's color management system or a faulty sensor.
