Xerox 242 Fiery EX260 - very dark prints

[paul_gmb]

Hello,

We have a Xerox 242 with a bundled EX260 in which prints tend to come out very dark. This is especially a problem with digital photos. We tried calibrating and also tried manually reducing color levels inside of the machine.

They seem to improve, but then a couple of hours later they go dark again.

Has anyone had this issue before ?

The problem is especially on digital photos.

Procedura MaxSetup din service mode.
Inainte de asta o curatare generala a masinii si a filtrelor in special.

Mersi. Am facut asta, e mai deschis dar tot ramane putin inchis. Dar e adevarat ca nu am facut o curatare generala inainte.

Compara o pagina de test data din masina din service mod cu una tiparita din Fiery.
Densitatile trebuie sa fie apropiate. Verifica si setarile din Fiery.

Put a picture up of the internal test page 12 & 13 then we can see if it is RIP or machine
