Uneven Glossiness Occurring Partly

Uneven glossiness occurs partly.

illustration of Uneven Gloss

Cause:

The fusing belt is stained by the toner wax.

Occurrence conditions:

  • When printing on coated paper with a thickness of medium thickness or more

  • When printing images covering a high image area

Solution:

1In the printer driver screen of Fiery Command WorkStation, set Fuser Setting HQ mode.

Note

  • When using paper with a thickness of Paper Weight 6 to 9, throughput may be reduced.

Print 10 or more A3 sheets. Has the problem been resolved?

Yes

Finished!

No

Go to next step.

2If the paper is not registered as custom paper, register the brand of the paper.

3If there is room to reduce the print speed (from "High" or from "Middle"), and if the reduced throughput does not cause a problem, go to the next step.

Otherwise, perform the procedure from Step 5 in "(b) Changing the fusing temperature (If [Print Speed] is set to [Low])".

4In [Detailed settings] for the custom paper you are using, select 1231: [Print Speed], and then decrease the value in the following corresponding settings by one level.

If the present value is [High], select [Middle]. If it is [Middle], select [Low].

When decreasing the print speed to [Middle]

Go to "(a) Changing the fusing temperature (If [Print Speed] is set to [Middle])".

When decreasing the print speed to [Low]

Go to "(b) Changing the fusing temperature (If [Print Speed] is set to [Low])".

2Print 10 or more A3 sheets. Has the problem been resolved?

Yes

Proceed to Step 3.

No

Start over from Step 1.

3Is the toner fusibility within the permissible range?

Note

  • The required level of fusibility is as follows.

    • The printed image does not come off.

    • The toner does not come off even if it is lightly rubbed by a nail.

    • The toner does not come off even if it is rubbed by the cloth for cleaning the contact glass.

Yes

Contact your service representative.

Note

  • Select "Clear/Special" when using Neon Yellow, Neon Pink, or Invisible Red. Select "Metallic" when using Gold or Silver.

  • When printing many sheets of images with high coverage, substantial toner wax adheres to the fusing belt and worsens the ghosting. In such a case, the ghosting can be reduced by executing 02: "Uneven Gloss (Short Time)" in 0508 "Manually Smooth Fusing Belt" in Adjustment Settings for Operators 1 to 5 times.

  • After performing the solution, it is recommended to perform the color calibration of the external printer controller.
