C3500 streaks on front edge

[tinfox]

This problem went away and came back on its own.

Looks like the charge rollers in all 4 drums need to be cleaned.

Okay. That s what I thought. What was strange is that it went away and then returned.

Remember you can't clean worn out.

Looks like you WILL have to replace all the pcus and the DEVs if the problem keeps coming and going.

It does look like a pcu problem, but since it disappeared and returned you might check out the transfer cleaning unit also.

That's what I thought as well so I put in a new cleaning unit and it made zero difference.

The customer is okay for now I put all the paper in LT R so the lines don't show up. I ordered 3 pcus

Re: C3500 streaks on front edge

Streaks like this from the charge roller can clean themselves up...it is largely dependent on what the customer is running. If they are making lots of high coverage copies the toner disposal system can't keep up and the charge roller ends up getting contaminated. After the high coverage run they may run regular coverage and the toner disposal system catches up and the charge roller eventually cleans off enough to make the lines go away. That is my experience with lines that come and go...and yes like another post said changing the drum and dev unit together is recommended....crashed developer really clogs up the old disposal system.

The streaks shown are on an internal colour calibration page, so it's NOT only copy problem

Is this an original ACC page?! we must get to the bottom of this if so...replace all mirrors in scanner and user a scissor jack to adjust a twisted frame!
