[Misc] Gestetner DSC525 Color Printing Issues

[creighhill]

I'm having issues with a Gestetner DSC525 color printing and copier. Attached is a scan of an Auto Color Calibration Test Pattern. Thank you in advance for any help.

That looks like it's either in need of a full set of PCU's or the ITB cleaning unit's gone bang. What have you done so far?

Definitely PCUs, replace them and you should be back in business. The ITB will usually give you a tracking image, that is 100% charge roller related so new PCUs will fix this

Replace all 4? Thank you for your help. Creigh

I don't see yellow or black in your picture, but to be safe I would go ahead and do the CMY. To check your black make an internal print like a counter page, if it's clean you're good to go.
