      I use 90g coated paper ( and the broblem aperar at the second side of the print - exfoliate paper) and if I lower the weight I must use normal paper.
      so I will try.
      Thanks

        Fuser temp is set using 25 mode softswitches, it should be listed in the service manual.

          is your paper blistering (bubbling) then you need to use good quality coated laser paper made for copiers .press paper will not work

            This is one of the big problems the 8050/C500 have that was solved with the arrival of the C6500. More than one customer I used to visit swapped their 8050/C500 for a C6500 and are still happily using them.

                  As stated above, its in the manual.
                  Color is not 4 times harder... it's 65,000 times harder. They call it "TECH MODE" for a reason. I have manual's and firmware for ya, course... you are going to have to earn it.
