[CQ] B250 dark copies first thing in the morning

[Eugene74]

Good day all

I've got a problem on B250. First 5 - 10 prints/copies in the morning are black (back ground). We've replaced drum, developer, dev tank and transfer roller. Still the same problem. Then we thought it might be HV problems, because looks like Bias or HV leaking. Customer uses machine as fax machine aswell so mashine never get switched off. Havn't change HV yet, want to check if somebody had this problem before, because this would be our next step, changing the HV. I have attached sample of the problem.

Many Thanks

Hi,

This may seem a little basic, but when you replaced the developer and drum etc did you perform the function of F8 in the service mode?

I'll throw this out there.... is the copier in a damp room or where there is a lot of condensation. I left a little copier in the car one night went to use it in the office and the mirrors had condensation on. When it dried out -- perfect -- just a thought -- ok clutching at straws!
