    Copystar CS 5500i Repeating marks

    I'm having repated dark spots in printed areas. Is there anything in the service manual (which I already have and do not need to purchase for $12.77 ) that indicates which roller the marks are coming from based on the length between the marks? I couldn't find anything.

    Thanks in advance!
    Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
    O.o

      Old copier tech trick: Roll the paper with the marks over lapping the mark so it matches. The diameter of the paper will match the diameter of the offending part. I bet it's the drum. It's BOGO (buy one get one at M4U!)

        Repeating dots could be charge roller has picked up something, just take machine apart and clean it.

          Didn't think that to look there. Thanks!

          Yeah, I know that trick, but I don't these machines well enough to know the diameter of all the rollers. It's not the drum, not big enough. I'm thinking it's the mag roller. I'm gonna check tomorrow.

          BOGO? If only I needed two manuals... but I don't.

          The charge roller was the first thing I checked. It wan't that.

          Thanks again everyone! I'm still very new to Kyocera.
