    [CQ] Sharp AR-M208 Blank 1-2" wide down non-op side

    Have a Sharp AR-M208 with a blank stripe all the way down 8.5x11R page about 1.5" wide or about 2.75" wide on 8.5x11 page. Its not an abrupt
    blank area it kinda of fades the image and bends it off before it goes completely blank.
    Doesn't matter if you run off the glass, thru ADF, or thru internal printed page. They all show the same voided area. I know it eliminates the exposure lamp.

    Have tried new drum, drum blade, new charge corona, new developer material, developer side seals, & top mylar seal and no change. Developer mag roller seems to carry nice even nap.

    Have pulled laser unit and checked for any obstructions and dirtiness and seems fine. When you run a reduced copy seems as though more of the
    image is effected cause it seems as though the voided area is about the same width. Not sure what that means.

              If I'm right about this, you're going to laugh about it.

              When you re-installed the primary charge unit, you may not have attached it quite right. The corona unit sides or the plastic frame can block the optical path from the laser.
              I've done it myself. =^..^=
              If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
              1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
              2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
              3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
              4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
              5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

                  Thanks but it is hooked in place properly, I've already double checked that.
