Look at the lower right hand portion of the PDF. The fade pattern crosses all 4 colors. Not as bad as the K but still there. M is the next most noticeable. C very little but still there.
Best to wait for the outcome I would place a 20p bet it's not ptr.
Stay safe slimslob

May be 2 different problems as well.

Am quite sure its the PTR.
I've the part for the customer, waiting for delivery.
What are the Total Color and B/W counts on this machine? This information would be super helpful.
I think Slim may be on to something. Possibly ITB unit (only thing aside from PTR that all colors share). Usually the PTR's on this model go over 1 million prints in our experience....rarely causes an image defect unless the entire transfer case is out of position (broken pin on rear side).
Lower left corner of the sample you can see the yellow square is almost completely washed out. And actually the yellow square on the right side is pretty bad too.
As Slim mentioned, the bottom right corner where the bars cross, you can see the defect in at least three colors, M,Y and K.
No matter where you look for black, it seems to me to be weak developer/toner mix.
Can't rule out the fuser either though.
Omertà
Please,
mention counters of
pcu (unit or parts?), developer(box), F.U., paper transfer, ITB (cleaner).
Do you use original Ricoh parts?
Do you rebuild the pcu yourself?
Hello Guys,
I think I've found solution.
The developer didn't match toner, compatible toner was used against OEM developer, so I changed all developers to compatible developer and machine seems to be back again.
Customers lie alot.
Of course many customers will lie. You know your customers.
Did they refill genuine cartridges with compatible toner powder or changed whole cartridges with compatible ones?

They refill genuine cartridge with compatible toner. Forgetting it an OEM developer, and lied it's original toner. Compatible developer must be used with compatible toner.
