      Don't do it man. If you think the OEM developer is sometimes inconsistent, the generic is always inconsistent.

      If you're going to fight this uphill battle, use the same crappy brand of aftermarket developer as toner. It won't give good copy quality, but you may not have extreme overtoning. =^..^=
      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          If it was up to me ..... but it is not

          It is the market trend and competition which is calling the shots

                  Want mi advice? DO NOT DO THAT!!
                  Believe me i learned this the hard way, i ordered some drums and aftermarket developer powders for a color copier and i can tell you one thing; these are all crap!! and a total waste of money. Invest your money in genuine developers and drum units and especially in color copiers

                      If your going down that route, experiment on a machine in your company workshop etc first, don't use a customer as a guinea pig, you're bound to upset them & they'll leave!

                          If your leadership is telling you to do that time to find another job and let them rot in the grave they dug. When you say market and competition I have a very hard time believing that. Every CQ call I do I ask the infamous question "what type of shit are you putting in here?!?"
