    Post a half tone at 125 and 255. That also helps.

    Too old developer? ITB 3 x over life?

    Hi guys,

    One thing to check with output like that is to make sure the development unit / mag roller is turning. On some of the older models with a similar dev/drum setup, I've come across a few instances where the cog on the back of the dev unit broke, or the cog in the copier came loose, and the dev unit was no longer rotating resulting in output that looks just like that. An easy way to check is to take a cloth and wipe a small area on the mag roller bare, try to run a copy and then take a look at the mag roller again. If the bare spot is still there, you know it's not turning.
