Unplug the unit and disconnect it from the vent system. Now try a run. If it now dries OK odds are the vent system needs checking/cleaning. Be sure to check that the louvers on the outside of the house open correctly. If you do not want any lint in the house. Take a pair of pantyhose. Put one leg into the other and then attach this to the dryer's vent. Leave enough room so the pantyhose can balloon out like a windsock. Both the above will let you check the temperature and the air flow. Note: The above is not recommended for gas dryers due to carbon monoxide concerns.
