HRe: Docucolor 240 stripe on cyan

[Alibear57]

Thanks Gabi, I knew I could make up a template myself (I've done it with inDesign) but I just wondered if there was a quick way to print it from the machine without having to go into the Fiery and hunt for mine.

Hi,

Those are internal test paterns from diagnostic mode (available just for the techs), but you can print them from Corel or something else (CMYK separately at 50-60% coverage) or you can make copies with DADF open choosing at the color output to copy to single color.

Hi Ray, how did you get that test print? Is it from the menu, or is it a hard copy?

[Kimzi]

Ah Interesting.

Thank you for the explanation :)

Hi Kimzi,

You are right. There are 2 ROS. One is for cyan and black. This symptom starts on the cyan and then, after a period of time also goes to black. Both colors share the same laser but the window where  the laser travels is different.

I was afraid that it was going to be the ROS, but getting your opinion on it helps me make a intelligent decision than just trying to throw parts at it and not knowing if I am wasting time and money. Thank you for your help.:smileyhappy:

About the ROS Assembly, isnt it actually just two on this machine? one for K & C, and one for M & Y?

Or am I badly mistaken?

Hi Ray,

I'm really sorry, but it is a ROS problem. You also have other problem on the black, but should be the corotron.

sorry the delay.

I dont know how much you've checked but.

*Paper -> use another ream of paper, select correct paper-type in tray settings

*Calibration -> Perform an Auto Gradation

*Change drum -> I guess you've already done this, or just try switching between cyan and another drum.

*Copy & Print -> Does it show up on both copy and print?

*Clean -> which you've already done.

Here is the test pattern showing the white stripe in the cyan.
