PRO1050 foggy background in thick paper

[Gergő]

The life counter is 2 500 000.
New SMP KIT (PM KIT).
Firmware version is 60.
I tried to change the DipSw 27-2,3, 7-7, 7-2,3, 23-2,3,4, 8-0,1, 5-2,3. Sometime it helps with tonel spilling and to incease image density. At the moment the plain paper almost good. But with 170g/m2 has very foggy bachground the whole surface.

Any idea?

How old is the Developing unit, charge unit, and Drum?

[Gergő]

Charge unit 2.5000k (Charge wire is new)
Developing unit 2.500K (Developer 800k)
Drum 800k

[Haroldbfix]

Charge unit 2.5000k (Charge wire is new)
Developing unit 2.500K (Developer 800k)
Drum 800k

Based on those counts I wouldnt be a bad idea replace them.

I chekked process adjustment datas. The sleeve rotation was 91 instead of 142. MPC was 96 instead of 110. I changed them for default value. The image didn't change. Resetted the DipSw to factory default, except 5-2,3 and 8-0,1.
I've replaced the drum & the developer. It works fine now. But I'm not sure to find the really good solution.

Thanks for your help.

when developer dies you get background. From what I read your dev was 800k old. I understand the dev life to be 750k. You have done well to get that far.

Develolper life is 1.000k or 220h wich comes first.

True, however keep in mind if the machine is in a "continuous print" environment you will have to replace the consumables early.
