    Get it serviced by trained tech or replace the old beast.

      I'd say it's PCU just needs rebuilding.
      It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

      Hit it.

        possibly charge roller has poor connection. As stated the comment before rebuild or replace PCU

            with the OP being an end user rebuilding the PCU is WAY above his pay grade.

                Thank for the reply boss.

                I actually boss, already change a brand new PCU.... then it turns like that. everytime i Photocopy a valid id its too dark you cannot see the picture
                i try to adjust the density it its still too dark.... i dont know it its in the setting of adjusting how to my it lighter or maybe its the toner that i used or the developer.
