    Pattern on prints shows up on black C454e

    So here were are guys
    Black drum new
    Black developer new
    Cyan drum new
    Developer installed two days ago the drums today.
    Now sure why I have those pattern prints to be honest. Could it be the IBT? Installed a new blade a few days ago when thought the blade was the issue.
    Really don't know what going on. This printer been so reliable

    brand NEW OEM dev unit?

    was it initialized ?

    OEM genuine toner?

    did you clean all electrical contacts before installing dev unit?

    how does the belt look?

    is the image on the belt like that

    is the image on the drums like that

    replace the white cap on the toner hopper and install a new DV unit and warranty this one.
    also check the slide door to see if toner can even enter the DV unit (corrugated tube).

    It's possible that you have a faulty new DV unit. But I'd like to know if you got the exact same pattern with the old DV unit. If so, that would make me skeptical that the new DV is bad.

    Edit: I'd start with a couple of basic checks:

    - Make sure the mag roller is turning. You can do this by wiping off all the DV/toner from the mag roller and then running a copy and pulling the DV unit out to see if it's now covered. If not, you've got a broken gear somewhere or a clutch problem.

    - Check the DV bias voltage to make sure it matches what the manual says.

    Re: Pattern on prints shows up on black C454e

    I actually csnt recall getting this pattern with the old developer unit. Good thing I didn't throw it away. In fact got the old drum too. But I think that old black drum might be an issue.
    When you say mag u mean the magenta developer correct?
    I don't get any issues with reds etc but I'll let yoy guys know for sure.
    This is crazy that it could be a brand new dev unit and getting this issue.

    Please measure: What interval on the pattern in millimeters? =^..^=
    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.

    No, I mean the magnetic roller on the black DV unit. It's the roller that you can see and it's coated with developer and toner. Take the black DV out and wipe off all the developer until there is none left. Reinstall the DV unit and make a copy. Take the DV out again and look at the magnetic roller. If it's not coated with developer you have lost rotation somewhere in the DV drive train.

    mag = magnetic roller.. every dev unit has one it transfers toner to the drum.
