Hi Blackcat... I did do a toner curve and calibration. The toner curve prints were perfect and also read fine when read by scanner.

Just in case, backup the machine before you do anything else, just to be safe. You can try running U021, and then see what happens. It will wipe it basically back to factory, and if it doesn't make a difference, you can push the backup on to the machine again. If it does change, then it's something setting related, whether a setting is corrupt, or whatever.

Had a weird issue on a Sharp once that forced toner save mode on out of nowhere. Couldn't figure out why, and the only thing that fixed it was resetting system settings to factory defaults, and then it let me change it. It had been out there for a few years at that point, so it made no sense.

Same type of deal... copier has 120K on it and in good shape
