    At first glance Im guessing something is under the transfer belt cleaning blade?
    Oh, wait... looking at this on my phone at first I only saw the darker line & thought the lighter one was logo/letterhead design. Very strange. Maybe scan in a better hi res sample?

      Yes classic transfer belt issue.

      Simple way to confirm, open the right door & shine a light on the belt (it should look clean)

      You can remove the unit & cleaning blade, wipe it clean should resolve the issue.

        Jou transfer belt is gefok.

        Are you a tech?
        Like said before open the door and take a look at you transfer belt.
        Best to remove it and inspect it properly.

        If you want a real bargain on a machine just like it let me know. You are close enough to help with that from where i am.
        Or if you need a transfer belt and other parts from JHB/Centurion.
        Whatever

          Would help to know what you have done so far? Looks like the calibration pattern isn't being cleaned off. It would take you 5 mins to pull the transfer belt. Check that first
