Hi there,

There could be a few reasons why the text in your Google Doc is printing out faded or light:

Low ink or toner
The ink or toner in your printer may be running low, causing the text to appear faded. Try replacing the ink or toner cartridge and see if that resolves the issue.
Printer settings
Check the printer settings to make sure that the print density and print quality are set to their default values. If the print density is too low or the print quality is set to a draft mode, the text may appear faded.
Font color
Check the font color of the text in your Google Doc. If the font color is set to a light or faded color, it will print out that way as well. You can change the font color to a darker color to make the text more legible.
Document formatting
The formatting of the Google Doc itself could be causing the text to appear light. Try copying the text into a new document and see if that resolves the issue.

If none of these solutions work, you can try printing the Google Doc from a different printer or contact your printer manufacturer for further assistance.

I hope it helps and have a good day ahead.
