    bizhub C250i foggy backgroud printout

    Hi everybody,

    One customer reported that the color printout has a bit foggy background, compare with B/W one.
    The color drums have 60% something and 30% something on black drum.
    The machine takes 40K color and 140K black counters.

    Any idea about this issue? thanks.

    i dont see anything wrong.
    you can always reset and stabilize then do the gradations 3 times each and see if it changes but frankly, im missing where the problem is.
    We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
    The medication helps though...

        Is your cyan TCR-value ok?

          I believe there is a firmware upgrade to cure a problem with too much cyan.
          A previous firmware upgrade caused the issue and it was then upgraded again to cure the issue
          This was on Develop but I assume KM initiated it.

            the cyan developer looks over toned. what do the halftone outputs look like?

              you can try this:
              change switch 153 bit 6

              under pcl driver:
              quality tab/quality adjustment/other/turn pure black off

                  before all that, try just simply calibrating it like i suggested above.
                  We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
                  The medication helps though...

                    What's FW version? Your threads seems always lack valuable/basic information.
