Ensure all toner or paper dust, particles are removed. 2.Clean the right Gear that has relatively small tooth gap on the OPC. 3.If the problems are not solved, replaced the toner cartridge. Solution 1.Bad contacts on the toner cartridge high voltage terminals. 2.The rollers in the toner cartridge may be contaminated. 1)Charge roller – 38.3 mm 2)Supply roller – 44.1 mm 3)Develop roller – 46.5 mm 4)Transfer roller – 55.9 mm
65 Ⅳ. Trouble Shooting Printing Problems – Causes and Solutions 4. Black/White Spot Description: 1. Dark or blurry spots occur periodically in the printing 2. White spots occur periodically in the printing Check and Cause 1.Print several OPC cleaning Mode Prints and then run the Self-test 2 or 3 times mm repetition: Examine the surface of the OPC drum and carefully clean with a soft, lint free cloth. If unsuccessful replace the cartridge mm repetition: Replace the toner cartridge. 3. The Transfer roller guarantees 150,000 sheets printing. If the roller’s life expired, replace it. Note:Cleaning the inside of the set to remove excess toner particles or paper dust will reduce the occurrence of this problem. Solution 1.If dark or blurry spots occur periodically, the rollers in the Developer may be contaminated with foreign matte or paper particles. (Charge roller: 38.3 mm interval OPC drum : 94.4 mm interval) 2. If faded areas or voids occur in al black image at interval 94.4 mm, or black spots occur elsewhere, the OPC drum surface is damaged. 3.
