Re: 3551ci, color difference

Have you checked the colour tables? U485. The darker one looks like it’s using FJ

I owe you one. That was exactly the problem. I changed it to KY and it's back to normal. Thank you.

No problem. If we have a client with problems with blues we will generally use the KO (Konica) table.
Just RE run the tone curve after the reboot.

For that purpose we have tool comparing default soft switch values to the machine or between two machines. Comes handy at a times. Just out of curiosity, what FJ brand profile is. Maybe Fuji Xerox?

Re: 3551ci, color difference

I think the color tables go like this:

CA = Cannon
FJ = Fuji
HE = HP
KO = Konica
KY = Kyocera
RH = Ricoh
ST = Sharp
TO = Toshiba

The two and three series seem to already have the color tables installed outta the box. There are a couple of new settings (K1 and A1), but I have no idea what those are as of yet.

I mostly set my machines to RH for reasons I have explained in another post. Basically, the default KO will get you the best yield out of the toner. But to me, the color is lacking. RH uses a bit more black toner but looks way better. I take the trade-off of using a bit more black because the black toner cartridges are bigger anyway. The TO may look good but that setting just slops gobs of toner on the page. I only use that one when I have to...... just sayin'.

Re: 3551ci, color difference

I have 2 3551ci's in the shop. Both using OEM toner. One has 100k on it. The other has 50k. When I print out the test charts there's a difference in color. See test charts below. Notice the difference in the last row of color. One is magenta and the other looks purple. There's also a more slight difference in the blue.

Maybe someone with more experience than me can give me a clue. Thanks. See below:
