    Same here. We have also used a product called "putz" which is a cleaner for press rollers and works pretty good on these drums as well.
    Accidents don't just happen. They must be carelessly planned.

    Somewhere in the archives some guy says he puts clear nail polish on the scratch.
    His explanation: It is easier to get away with a small blank spot than a small black spot.

    some day I will try it.

    some day I will try it.
    This used to work on the Selenium Tellurium drums of many days gone by, because those machines (the early Mita's, i.e DC-131) had no cleaning unit or blade. There was a cleaning corona wire, that would release the charge from the drum after each cycle, then pull any residual toner back into the developing unit. There was no physical contact of a blade to the drum.

    When this fix was attempted on later machines with cleaning blades, I discovered that it didn't work so well. The drum surface has to be perfectly smooth to clean properly, and that small lump of nail polish leaves a teardrop shaped comet-trail of toner behind after every revolution.

    Now, ASi drums are considerably more durable than the Selenium Tellurium drums that I experimented on, so a tech could conceivably fill a scratch, then somehow buff the resulting surface smooth. That would never have worked on those earlier drums. I single fingerprint could be the end of a drum. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
