Cause:

The photoconductor unit is stained.

Solution:

1To identify the affected color, print three full-page, solid-fill A3 or DLT sheets for each of cyan, magenta, black, and green.

Note

  • Because it is difficult to identify white spots on yellow, green is used instead of yellow.

2Detach the photoconductor unit of the affected color and check the drum surface. Is the surface stained?

Yes

Wipe the photoconductor unit surface with a clean dry cloth to remove the stain.

In the [Machine: Maintenance] group on the [Operator Adjust.] menu, execute 0504: [Execute Cleaning Initial Setting for PCU]. Go to the next step.

No

Replace the photoconductor unit.
