do you know about printers and toner? do you have a hp printer?

i recently bought a hp laserjet 1020 printer. i am testing it out and there is a little residue on the printed papers and there is occasionally lines. is this the printer or the toner? will replacing the toner fix the problem or should i take it back? id appreciate the feedback, thanks

1. Look for "density" adjustment in your users manual. It is usually a lever near the toner cartridge and should be adjusted for best looking printing each time the cartridge is changed. Bert
2. I had the same problem but with my Samsung printer but what i did which i think you should is to take out the toner and just shake it a little to even it out because thats what causes the residue.
