    It is the drums, those had a tendency for the transfer belt to scratch the drums. I think what happens is the belt sticks to the drums after sitting and when it gets turned on it scratches them, I have replaced numerous drums for this on those.

    As I said, the printer was in perfect, it still unused for about 6 months (or more) and when we turned on it started giving this problem.
    Could it be sediment on the 4 drums?
    Definitely drums. I'm guessing that the drum cleaning blade adhered to each drum during the storage period. The machine broke them loose, leaving residue from the neoprene drum blade. There is a very small chance that the residue may be cleaned off of the drum with a cotton pad and paraffin lamp oil, then alcohol.

    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.

    Never thought about the blade sticking to it but I bet you are correct and that is what it is.

    It's the drums, when the unit sits for a while the drum blades get stuck to the drum. The only fix is 1 take each out and clean with denatured alcohol (you will see defect on drum) be careful and patient. 2 replace drums (if still available) I have seen this many times.

    That's pretty good detective work. I wonder if the copier was stored in a hot environment?

    It doesn't necessarily have to be hot, just sitting in the same position for a long time. =^..^=
