      Correct.
      I would be ashamed by my stupidity asking such incompetent and incomplete questions.
      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.

        I would hope it's not stupidity and more because of language barrier with many different countries posting here.

            Oh great God of the digital print, I'm sorry for failing to detail the problem so that your great wisdom can help me. I couldn't explain the problem so I decided to post a photo so that the Great Gods of digital could see what was happening. After trying everything that my inconpendent wisdom could solve and tired in the early hours of the morning and discouraged at not being able to solve the problem.

                If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
                1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
                2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
                3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
                4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
                5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

                  blackcat4866 Thank you for your words and for your attention to my problem. This file I will keep it forever for print tests.


                  Just before your post I removed all the developer powder from the unit and topped it up with an old one that I had previously used here and was in storage.


                  By adding the exact amount of developer powder, the print improved by 95%, but there were still white dots. I come to the conclusion that it was a lack of developer powder when printing 100% cyan.


                  When printing your file, the printout was 100% perfect.


                  I have a follow-up question.
                  Why and under what circumstances does the developer powder decrease and what can I do to prevent this from happening?

                  I used Google Translator.

                      I've seen Ricoh color models where the only regular use of the color PCDUs was during process control when first turned on in the morning.

                        Same here.
                        We had customer or two using bizhub C224e almost only as mono color machines for a extended period. I mean 1.5 million and they never fail. They did only stabilizations and nothing more. We set them as stabilize per mono color priority though.
