    Retro page on dual scan on C458 is faded

    On some machines in the field, it happens occasionally that when doing double-sided scans, the odd page (front) comes out perfect while all the even pages (back) come out faded.
    Turning it off and waiting about twenty seconds before turning it back on makes the problem disappear and then maybe come back after a few weeks.
    Has this happened to you and do you have a definitive solution?

    Thanksss

    try to clean the white reference sheet on the brush roller shaft really well. the CIS knows thats pure white so it will try to reproduce anything darker but if its dirty than dark is already a starting point and it wont pick up 100% density and wind up with light copies.
    We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
    The medication helps though...

      Sample please.
      What you did/attempted to resolve this instead of turning off?
      A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
      Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

            have you updated the FW - always do this before anything else
            Tip for the day; Treat every problem as your dog would.....If you cant eat it or f*ck it....then p*ss on it & walk away...
