Faded prints to the top of 12x18 prints.

[positiveg]

The C454 is printing faded to the top. Not sure what's causing it if it's the fuser, basically new 50%. Or the transfer belt. Please see image to get an idea what I mean. Thanks

If you haven't already cleaned the printheads, start there. Then stop the machine the the middle of print and check if image is faded on transfer belt.

Is the lead edge at the top of the page? If so, then probably dirty P/H. Best way to test is to run halftones set at 100 for each individual color Black(1PC), Cyan, Magenta, and yellow. If they all present the same issue, it's dirty P/H most likely.

Just took this photo yesterday on a similar call for a C368.

good day
It is very likely that the error that your machine presents when printing is due to the PH Unit, I recommend you not only clean the filters with the pad, but also remove the PH Unit and perform an internal cleaning with dry cloths.
