Weak ( light ) in the top area of the image in 1060

[aaahmmm]

In my 1060 I suffer form having light or weak in the top area , and good quality in the bottom area of the image . when copying on Glass or ADF

[Llama God]

How's the quality when you print?

[Ricoh-ono]

possible buildup on doctor blade.

Or dusted up on the laser glass slit

[unisys12]

laser glass is my bet as well. When's the last PM?

[aaahmmm]

dear all
i clean the laser glass and i think its done

The filter on the dev unit is probably not sitting in properly, it sprays toner on to the laser slit glass.

Blockages on the doc blade, worn developer, worn seals, plugged filters, and dirty coronas can also cause toner to dust the laser glass. Point being that if cleaning the glass fixed it you've got more work to do finding what scattered toner to the laser or you'll be back to this machine in real short order.

What about damp paper? I know it's a long shot for paper to be damp on one side only, but sometimes people store paper in weird ways. Try turning the paper around 180 degrees and see if the light area follows.

He stated he fixed it. Looks like it was the laser glass slit, now he needs to fix the cause. But I have seen damp paper do totally blank or very weak copies.

my bad...

But I have seen damp paper do totally blank or very weak copies.

Y'all should try living in Mississippi: We Got Heat! We Got Humidity! And We Got Bugs!

...and I've seen all 3 cause problems

[aaahmmm]

I have 4 1060 machines in the same site using the same paper type and I have the problem in one machine only.

Probably the development roller is dirty.

Remove de developer from the unit and from the magnetic roller. See if in the edges is darker
