The toner rubs off

Toner is being laid down but not melted onto the page. Nine times out of ten it's a paper mismatch: the driver is set to plain paper and you've loaded something heavier, so the printer doesn't run the fuser hot enough.

If neither helps, the fuser is worn and that's a service part.
