    Didn't I say this in the beginning? Gotta clean those sensors before ordering parts tho... seen one get dirty and throw off the reg.

    I have never had a color registration issue from dirty sensors before,, will have to look into that on the next occurrence of that issue...

    I think they made the sensor system worse on this model, even though it has a shutter. Maybe because its not upside-down anymore it gets dirtier faster?

    Not a bad color Canon either, the insides kinda remind me of a color printer not a 'real' copier.

    Re: registry mistake color. canon 3080

    yes they are more modular to reduce the price per page and service cost. Are you running your drums longer than they should be or using non OEM toner in your machines that you service? I find it odd that you have had a lot of these issues and as a company we have not had any on this model with the sensors getting soiled. Last check we had 200+ units running. Could it be an issue of toner coverage as well???

    Most of ours only run 30% or so color and even then it is business color and not graphic type coverage.

    I'm sure it is a combonation of aftermarket toner and running drums too far past 100%. Companies are always pushing us farther and farther to make a few extra bucks! Gotta do as we're told I guess....


    I'm not a field tech anymore (thank god), now I'm doing help desk so I'm speaking of what I've heard recently from my techs.

    Where I work, we have been known to squeeze a bit of extra life out of the drums, and I have had it where cleaning the sensors made a difference, it was only for a little while, and sure as eggs the ITB would be replaced next call, and it wouldn't be a long time between calls.

    time to get down to basic procedures !!!!!!!
    1.-stop posting cut off images.
    2.-Paper size being used ?
    3.-Is the issue on Main Scan(Crossfeed>Front to Back) or Sub-Scan(Paper Feed>Right to Left) direction or both ?
    4.-Post a PG6 GRID TEST/ will show if single color or multiple color issue and direction issue.


    U could also have a bad ITB/DRUM DRIVE ASSEMBLY
    / have changed a few of these in the past on the 3380 model to resolve reg.issues

    Did u Remove the noise dampening pad for the Registration sensor flag and then perform a Reg-Clear, Quick Adjust and then adjusting the IMG-REG .

    For a front to rear (cross feed) direction only
    problem may be resolved by clearing out the Registration Data stored in the DC Controller. To clear the data, perform the following.

    Enter Service Mode: Level 2 > Copier > Function > Clear > Reg/Clear. Highlight Reg/Clear and press OK.
    After performing the clear, reboot the machine and perform a Gradation Quick Adjust and then a Full Gradation adjust.

    Note*
    Following the instructions above could prevent you from having to perform a DC-CON clear, and inputting all DC-CON values from the door label.
