    CF3102 cyan not printing evenly

    I have a cf3102 printer that prints cyan as the example shows. I'm fairly sure that it isn't the drum since it still looks good. My theory is maybe the toner and developer clogged up due to humidity? Anybody have any ideas other than replacing the imaging unit?

    You can try to feed toner via the tech rep mode.

    I've also read on some other thread about taking out developer from an old cyan IU and use it to compensate the lack of developer on that IU.

    Stick the magnetized tip of your screwdriver on the waste toner bottle to check if you're getting developer on the copies.

    Failing all that - replacing the IU is the only way.

        Check if there's developer on the magnetic roller (if there's a developer "brush" all along the roller). If not, add some developer from another unit (about 1 spoon at the time), then rotate the magnetic roller with a screwdriver until it's all covered up in developer.
