Solution

1Check the counter of PM parts around the drum (photoconductor unit), and then replace parts for which the counter has been exceeded.

2In “Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators”, execute “0502: [Execute Process Initial Setting]” (SP3-020-001).

3Print the target image.

4Is the printed image acceptable?

Yes: Finish

No: Go to next step

5Execute [All Colors] in “0515: [Execute Developer Refreshing]” (SP3-062-001).

6Print the target image.

7Is the printed image acceptable?

Yes: Finish

No: Go to next step

8Check the interval (pitch) of the uneven density.

9Prepare a monochrome halftone image, and then print it for each color.

  • Use the NICE to find a problem unit.

  • Take measures according to the table below.

Pitch

(Problem Unit)

Measures

40 mm

(Charge Roller)

  1. Clean the charge roller. (Wipe the charge roller with a damped cloth, and then wipe it with a dry cloth)

  2. Never use alcohol to clean.

  3. Execute “0502 [Execute Process InitialSetting]” (SP3-020-001).

  4. Execute [DEMS] in “0201 [Adjust Image Density/DEMS]” (SP3-040-001), and then check the output image.

50 mm, 25 mm

(Development Roller)

  1. Execute [DEMS] in “0201 [Adjust Image Density/DEMS]” (SP3-040-001), and then check the output image.

63 mm

(Paper Transfer Roller)

Banding (63 mm intervals)

Also, Refer to Uneven density: 63 mm Interval

189 mm

(Drum)

Banding (189 mm intervals)

Also, Refer to Uneven Density: 189 mm Interval (1), Uneven Density: 189 mm Interval (2).

Note

  • After taking the above measures, do the color calibration adjustment of the external controller.
