Has anyone seen this? It only happens on black (the black portion of a color copy looks like the example, and colors are fine). Will installing new developer fix this, or is there a malfunction with the blk dv unit? Thanks

Change developer.
Thanks for the post. I was waiting for anyone else to chime in there. The machine has another minor problem, and the part is not available, so it may get updated instead of fixing. It's still pending. We'll see what happens. But I assume you've seen this and changing developer took care of the problem. That's what I thought but didn't know for sure, so thanks again.
i have copped this in a few other machines as well (dc II c4300, dcc400 etc) and just replace the complete dev units
no need to change anything
just add a little developer
if you look at the developer housing you will see the same pattern of the mag roll
more that likely the drum caused this effect
you can add developer through the toner feed section
10 min work
more like 5 min
Very little of developer in black developer housing. Its possible to add any colour of developer. It could be colored for the first, but then it will be ok. Just in case you dont have new developer.
Thanks for the ideas. I think the customer is considering updating since I've not received the order to repair. That machine is about 10 years old I think. If I have anything further I'll be sure and post it.
