[Misc] Smudge line MP9002SP

[elmaligno]

I have a curious problem on a MP9002SP. When printing double-sided, the penultimate sheet to come out has a smudge like the one you can see in the attached pdf.
It is always on the penultimate printed sheet and only double-sided. I have cleaned the inside of the machine and I can't find any explanation. Has this ever happened to anyone before? Thank you.

Well it seems Transfer Blade going bad or toner adherence on Pressure Roller.

Change the drum cleaning blade it may be old

Looks like it might be the drum the cleaning blade.

What's the mileage on the drum and blade?

Does it only do it in high volume runs or it occurring in lower volumes as well?


I would say try this :
Do a basic service.
Remove your drum unit. Polish it with brasso (that's a mild mild metal polish that we use in South Africa) and reassemble and test

The problem was with the transfer belt cleaning blade. Thank you all.
