Springs of the charge roller in place is the little earth connector on the pcu in the right place?

Also make sure the mag roller is clean, dirty mag roller can give grey background. And the bushings the charge roller sits in- are they clean?

I have same thing happening. is the Mag roller supposed to be metallic in color?

[Fearless V K]

The mag roller should be shiny silver. Toner film on the mag roller, or the charge roller making poor contact with the spring plates inside the drum unit are the usual culprits.

If you just replaced the drum, I would lean toward the charge roller contacts.
