    Konica Minolta C203/C253 (Actual Olivetti MF200lite)

    Hi

    I have had an awful time with a Olivetti MF201lite (Konica Minolta C203)

    We had the machine gun issue, in effect the machine had a blockage on the Magenta toner supply in the Conveyance tube. Yup! the whole machine has been stripped down to the frame just to reach the problem lol

    Anyhow we have a slight issue with Print Quality, please note that i have two machines in my workshop with the same problem
    It appears looking at the attached sample, to have darkened splodges in each of the colours, don't worry about the lines, its a fuser and transport belt issue, i have a few imaging units of each colour, that still show the same issue

    Anyone come across this before, thanks in advance

          I suppose I could have two faulty transfer belts, one is pretty new and the other is very old and has had a new fuse fitted in the past,

          I have another MF201lite due in soon, I'll try the belt, in fact I'll try anything lol
