    "did clean up"
    well what does that mean? wiped toner up... vac'd the internal?

    "Service PCU & belt"
    what did you do to 'service' them?

    OEM toner or not?
    what do the belt and drums tell you? smudge on them?

    change the transfer belt, the rubber one. i found after changing the cleaning blade that it didnt help changing the blade, but change the transfer belt help quite a bit, the static is stronger, looks like the static is either to strong and repelling excess toner from it.


    good luck

    Transfer Cleaning Unit. P/N - D0896022

    You said "Serviced" the Cleaning Unit. Does that mean just "emptied and Vacuumed" or did you replace with new (recommended)??
