    What is the feed direction? If LEF, i would suggest you to clean laser thoroughly, if SEF, i would go for second transfer and/or cleaning unit clutch

          LEF=Long Edge Feed, SEF=Short Edge Feed, in other words, the way the paper is fed from the trays. It seems your not a tech, so I think it's better to call one. Like Hermann said, the Laser Unit probably needs cleaning.

            What a good little test to check if its a tech.

              But seriously...perhaps you and KJ can get together and make 1 out of the 2:
