A friend of mine mentioned adjusting the voltage on the TPH to potentially correct the vertical line issues. I found a thread on this board that went into some more detail. Have you ever heard of this? What's the probability of it correcting the issue? If it's too risky and there's a high percentage of breaking the TPH completely, I think I'd rather just stick with the thin vertical lines. I'm not doing anything too fancy with the RISO, just wanted a way to cheaply produce my comics.
I'll take a look at the pressure roller for ink buildup. Are there any indicators (other than the print quality) that would signal the pressure roller being worn out. Any recommendations on suppliers for a new one?
Thanks again for all of your help, Iowatech.
