[havokprod]

Hello all, Got a MX-M453 with this problem20160518_103122.jpg20160518_103127.jpg

It's doing it with internal prints so i replaced the laser unit, still the same problem. DR and DV both have 50k, OEM toner.

Any ideas??

The lines remind me of the MC saw-tooth. Maybe the charge is malfunctioning.

Looks like your tv isn't plugged in all the way.
What was the lead edge?
There's edge erase and the defect is somewhat uniform. I would suspect a PWB or bad cable

Knowing the direction and getting a picture of the whole page would help a lot.

The first thing I thought was garbled data and a bad MFP PWB, but I second guessed it after I put a saw-tooth next to the picture and it almost lines up, but that's just a wild guess.

Update....

Sorry it took me while to report back, looks like the problem was a faulty cable from the laser unit to the PCU. Thanks for all the tips!!
