    FS-C2126MFP Processing & washed out

    We have 4 or 5 of these that the Processing light is flashing & the engine is cycling, but nothing comes out. Sometimes it will be 15 minutes. Cycling power will immediately print the job. It's happening on copies & prints both. We've added expansion memory etc. I was thinking possibly bad temp/humidity sensor ?
    Also, does anyone have a fix for the washed out prints ? Shaking the DV units brings it back.
    The full updates have already been done to these units.
    Hope that helps !

    The product may be brilliant and the salesperson proficient, but if the technician isn’t efficient, then the story will end there.

        Did you get it sorted ?...

        When the machine is idling, what does it display? Processing or please wait or adding toner ?

          It turns out that a few of these had the spring missing that puts pressure on the feed unit pick up tires. The machine will just keep trying to pick up the paper without showing a jam.
          Hope that helps !

            Run Dv Refresh several times and eventually you will gain density back. this model is trickle developement and if coverage causes the dv res. to run out it needs a devloper refresh. I have solved the same issue by doing this. you may need some spare toner good luck.
