Re: C6500 Y Tonner Hopper Issue

replace only the drum and test it.
replace the developer only when you are sure of the solution.

I am afraid most of the Y developer is sitting in the waste toner box. This is what the Y developing unit looks like right now. I don't think the developer can recover after this, can it? After all, the toner doesn't contain any developer powder.

The tonner is Konica Minolta Original or compatible?
I'm having the same problem with compatible tonners.

I was (and still) use all original on this machine. The problem turned out to be a doctor blade that had a too narrow of an opening towards the side that the TCR sensor is located (had some density issues due to this).

The unit must have been this way from factory. Anyway, after adjusting the gap to be roughly 0.75mm on both sides, the problem was resolved.
