    IR ADV C5030 highlights / fuser issues perhaps gradation?

    Hello Canon rivals
    I work solely on Konica & Kyoceras. Just happened that one machine we have to take care of to keep the contract is "not" printing to spec. My question is, how much deviation in colour reproduction there is if client is using 200GSM stock on plain settings and is happy with the outcome, because if heavy 2 is used the colour is a lot warmer on highlights and client doesn't like it.
    Drums CMY are on 50% Bk on 101%
    Cleaned laser windows, did Gradation Full on plain and Heavy still not much of improvement. Fuser had a build up on film due to incorrect paper settings. Build up cleaned off after correct paper settings were used. Can lower temp make the highlights a bit more appealing? Ive tried -2 (10'C lower than default) for Heavy 2&1 and very faint improvement happened but that is max. what I could configure unless there is in Service Mode some other adjustments (speed perhaps) that may do the trick, just wasn't sure where to look to be honest

    The other bit that crossed my mind is that although the Bk drum is printing fine and solids and gradients look fairly good it might be that in the gradation process it is not sufficient and result is burned highlights on yellow ( looking darker) .
    If anyone could give some advice, please drop me a line below, your help will be much appreciated! Thank you.

    Would Spectrometer calibration be any use on this machine despite the fact it has no Fiery?
