    What might cause this?

    A Kyocera P6130cdn otherwise behaving ok, only 30,000 pages, but doesn't like certain Avery products. Will print the required images perfectly on same thickness (200-220gsm) stock, both sides etc, but on certain Avery swing tags, it prints a washed out image with horizontal pale bands. Was printing these tags perfectly in the past, so something's changed. Anyone else encountered this?

    It looks that you need to change paper type. Check what are your options in printer preference. Some printers are not so good for envelopes. I am not sure what is Avery swing tags but I guess is envelope size. Carboard.

    What gsm?

    If you don't know, just weight a sheet of paper on a precision gram scale, then divide by what portion of a meter squared.

    I have an Excel spreadsheet that might help. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    I hate math AND pop-quizzes! (I am now in my sixties and not better at math than I was while in school.)

    Parts life is changed. Often hear this from customers complaining machine previously does jobs outside or on the edge of specs. But not anymore. Besides media providers may have changed quality of their products (cheaper).
    A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.

    Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
