White streaks perpendicular to the paper feed direction appear.
Cause:
A separating discharge occurs between the ITB and the paper edge during paper transfer, which causes a streak-like electric charge on the ITB. This residual electric charge may cause white streaks during image transfer. This may occur at low temperature and humidity.
- To adjust the following settings, pre-register the type of paper in use as a custom paper. For details see “3. Custom Paper Settings for Administrator” in the TCRU “Adjustment Item Menu Guide”.
Solution:
- In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, select Paper Transfer Current; Trail Edge Dist.
- SP2-816-001: Trail Edge Corr Switch: 2nd Custom Paper 001
- SP2-815-001 to 100: Trail Edge Corr Coef: 2nd Custom Paper 001 to 100
Check the present switch value. Is it at the upper limit?
Yes
Go to Step 6.
No
Raise the switch setting 5 points.
Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes
Finished!
No
Go to Step 4.
Check the present coefficient value. Is it at its lowest setting?
Yes
Restore the default value, and then repeat from Step 2.
No
Raise the setting 20 points.
Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes
Finished!
No
Repeat from Step 4. If the problem persists, consult the product specialist.
Is the paper transfer trailing edge correction coefficient at its lowest value?
Yes
Use different paper.
No
Raise the setting 20 points.
Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes
Finished!
No
Repeat from Step 6. If the problem persists, consult the product specialist.
- Even if the problem persists with the paper transfer trailing edge correction coefficient at its lowest value, consult the product specialist.
- Changing these settings can cause fading at the trailing edges of the paper, so keep this in mind when doing the adjustments. If the images fade at the trailing edge, make some output samples and choose the best from among the test prints and use those settings.
