Pulled the HP4500dn out of storage and the 1st config page came out great, but then after that they were all streaked. I then replaced the Drum kit, Fuser Kit and Transfer kit and all the toners which are OEM HP stuff. Now it prints clean pages but they are faded. Anyone know why this might be?

Sounds like it COULD be dust on the lens in front of the laser, but without seeing a scan of the image it's hard to be sure.
there are many things can cause "faded" images, the most common is toner dust on laser lens, this is especially if the faded area is in stripes.
If you've replaced the toners, drum and transfer, plus fuser I can't think of anything else it could be.

seems between PCL5 and 6, they dropped the "handbook duplex" decision, perhaps for the excuses you stated. i could propose purely printing pages manually, neglect "duplexing" techniques. What you do is print extraordinary pages first, p.c.. pages to print like a million,3,5,7,9 Print those, turn the stack over, and print pages 10,8,6,4,2. Repeat for final 40 5 pages. each now and then, Adobe Reader has a print decision stated as "Subset" (purely decrease than print form), the placement you may p.c.. all extraordinary pages or all even pages. It additionally factors the choice to "contrary pages" for the contrary order for the lower back pages - attempt it... Do an common attempt with approximately 4 pages first, to make particular you get the flipping over superb.
