    Konica c258 banner printing problem

    Hi
    we have a c258 with an internal stapler brand new that when you print banners 1200 x 297 is smudging the last third of the sheet
    Does anyone know the solution to this
    Firmware is latest

    Is the thickness set correctly?
    Thick 1 and up print slower so less chance of smearing.
    We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
    The medication helps though...

      how else can i slow it down as it looks like the paper slightly buckles as it leaves the fuser

        How heavy is the media? =^..^=
        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.

          Try playing with the fuser loop. Or slow it down as mentioned in previous post.

          We had different issue however, so in case you or someone is experiencing halftones being not filled properly a.e. peeling off (white spots) then try to increase the temp by 10'C to start with until you get good result. The fuser can't keep up. It usually happens on the last 1/3 of banner and 1/4 from edges. So smudging or peeling is visible, but not always.
          .OK Google! ... will I need Berrocca this morning?
