    [CQ] KM-6030 banding on enlarged 154% scan of IDs

    When scanning an ID w/ 154% enlargement using auto or manual exposure the output copy has distinct line banding of certain colors (of original) in output (shades of gray). Maybe a CCD problem?

    Have you tried something that's not an ID? I'm guessing it's got a clear coat of some sort on it that could cause problems with light distortion that's seen when it's magnified.

    Just throwing darts here. I've still got a few 6030's in the field but the customer don't do any magnification.

      If it's solarized, perhaps you can lay a transparency on the glass before the glossy original.
      If it's a moire' pattern perhaps a change of resolution, original type, file type, or enlargement might help.

      In either case there isn't really a "fix", more like a workaround. =^..^=
      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.

        Made a copy of a mouse pad, same thing 100% good, 154% banded.

          Kyocera Tech Supt 1st said "adjust the CCD" then they said "Oh. that copier doesn't have an adjustment for the CCD, guess you'll have to replace it." :-)

            ... and the scan settings? Any of these make a difference?
            Out of curiosity, what is so special about 154%? 155% is indistinguishable by the naked eye.
