I bought this machine to restore. Attached is a pic of what it's doing. No error codes. I put another transfer belt in it and ran calibration and belt timing. Did the laser glass cleaning. No change at all. Any help would be very appreciated...TA 4550ci Test Target02192019.jpg

Re: TA 4550ci Poor Copy Quality
Since you bought the unit used, does it have OEM toners? I would then try a developer refresh followed by a toner curve adjustment, both in the systems menu>adjust maintenance. You should also reset to factory defaults by running sim 002, you never know what the previous tech has done. Print out the maintenance report and make sure all the settings are at their default settings as outlined in the manual, this will give you a base setup to start working from. If you still get washed out copies and you said you replaced the transfer belt, you would have to start troubleshooting the secondary transfer. Hope this helps. -

Wow! That's really poor color registration! Did you do the manual color registration? You'll probably have to do so several times to get the registration reasonably close. Also make sure that the firmware is up to date. One of the updates addressed color registration variation. =^..^=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.

Re: TA 4550ci Poor Copy Quality
I would check each color separate, do all the colors have the same results..try to run a copy in text only mode..that might help ..
check copy before it gets into the fuser..there's a lot of stuff to check....but stop it before it gets into the fuser, look ..stop in the middle of a copy..how does the latent image look on the drum..good luck..mate...!!Comment
