Developer leaking (dumping) at rear of the developing unit. Developer builds up a sufficient quantity to affect copy quality and drop onto copies.
[Solution]
CAUSE: Low bias voltage applied to the sleeve/magnet roller causes toner to buildup at the transfer/separation guide plate. Copies strike this toner and carry a small amount to the fuser section where it builds up at the fuser entrance guide plate.
SOLUTION: Completely remove the bias terminal from the copier and clean the frame, holder, terminal and sleeve/magnet roller contact with alcohol. Form the bias terminal slightly upon reassembly to assure good contact. Do not reapply the conductive grease to the contact.
Notes:
1. Paper jams may be occurring as copies strike a buildup of toner on the fuser entrance guide plate. Also a toner accumulation may be noticed at the T/S guide plate. Copy output may have a buildup of toner along the leading edge and copies may also be output with toner blotches and speckles. The lead edge build up on the copies is most noticeable when looking at a stack of copies. In addition, other copy quality issues may be present like poor fill and shading.
Sometimes swapping the DV unit is the only fix so if this doesnt work give it a try! |
