Canon c2880i lines

Thanks man. yea and it got worse after changing the ITB and Transfer roller.
would bad drums also put the lines on the secondary Xfer roller too?

absolutely because it's always transferring lines to the ITB when it passes over the 2nd trans roller it'll leave lines on it too. That's a very good way to determine if it's your drums btw they'll dirty the heck out of the 2nd trans roller. It probably got stronger because the new primaries are stronger and would emphasise that fault better.

Great machines as long as you don't get the insert black drum or e990 codes.

I'll cross my fingers, thanks for the heads up.
I appreciate all the help.
Were Toshiba and this is an out of town contractor for the power co.
Now do I just drop the drums in or do I have to calibrate anything?
Thanks Again.

additional functions > adjustment/maintenance
run both a color mismatch adjustment and a full auto gradation adjustment.
add functions > 2+8 > add functions to go in service mode, copier > PG > PG type 10 press ok and press start to print. You'll understand why I'm telling you this when it comes out. You can easily tell color defects with this internal print.

I'm guessing you're not a tech!?

99.9% of the time lines on this model are caused by the drums.

Have a look at the condition of each drum, you can probably see lines on the drums.

Dang it, ya got me, Toshiba guy here if you didn't read the thread. Thanks for the 2cents and the Ad hominem.

What is the life of the drums service mode > display > misc

If you do replace the drums run a full auto gradation as described earlier and in service mode there is also . function > cleaning > trns clean
what this does is places a layer of yellow toner on the transfer roller. The layer should be uniform across the roller.

function > cleaning > TNR-COAT lays the yellow toner down on the 2nd trans roller to prevent particles from sticking to the ITB and causing white spots
2TR-CLN is used when the sheets are smudged or dirtied by the 2nd trans roller
