    C454 black prints light and also shadowy text

    Hi guys need some assistance please
    We've changed the drum, added new black developer , change the cleaning blade for the IBT
    but still no look
    please check images. I was browsing the forum and I see something about toner, that's the only thing I haven't changed. But we also cleaned the lens as well.

    OK I'll try that.

    Also when I ran the test on all the colours only the black showed terribly

    Find the post by the genius blackcat4866:
    C452 Dumpster to the Rescu(r)e!?!

    The internal test might be useful too. Post scans not pictures if possible.

    Did you replace the black developer unit or just replace the developer powder?

    Fit a new dev unit & a new genuine toner.

    A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.

    Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
