    tiny dots on the entire pare

    has anybody experienced this? there are tiny dots (page looks like a graphing paper) on the entire page. We already replaced the main charger kit, cleaned the entire machine, replaced the board but still is not fixed. I am a CPA and my tech guy (he's serviced that machine for the past 6 years) can't seem to find out the source of the problem. Anybody had that experience?

    It is not a machine problem - it is in the security settings (I wish I could remember the exact terminology). Hopefully, someone current with the setting will help.
    Might also, be an 'overlay' as default.

    I'm not familiar with that brand of machines, but if we're talking about a color machine with tiny almost-imperceptible yellow dots all over the page, then Zootech is right on the money - it's a fingerprint put in place so if someone decides to use the machine to counterfeit anything, then it will be possible for the authorities to track down the machine.

    Is this just on prints or does it show up on copies too?

    Machine info would be nice. Also, can you provide an example? Old developer can cause a type of shading on pages that may look like dots. Usually changing DV and calibrating will take care of that, assuming the seals on the unit are in good shape.
