Depending on the number of pages on the machine, the first thing I would check would be the transfer belt cleaning blade. (D2416141)

They're rated for around 300K, so check your counters.

103,000 on the b/w / and 60,000 on color

It shouldn't be the black PCU...those are rated for 400K. Same with the fuser rollers/sleeve. In order to eliminate the fuser, pull it and inspect it. If there are lines on the roller/sleeve that correspond with the marks on the pages, then you might have an early failure.

Same with the BK Drum unit....pull and inspect for corresponding marks.

I'm with you, looks like it could be the ITB cleaning unit causing the problem.
