FRU Action
PC Kit (not a FRU)
The charge roll may have an unbalanced force against the PC
(photoconductor) drum.
Try a new PC Kit.
Transfer roll
Do not touch the transfer roll except at its ends. Place a
sheet of paper over the roll to prevent damage from finger
oils or hand lotion.
Check the springs in the left and right transfer roll bearings. The
bearing assemblies should support the transfer roll, applying
evenly distributed forces to the PC drum.
Replace the transfer roll assembly if the springs or bearings show
signs of damage, or fatigue.
Inspect the transfer roll for signs of wear, damage or
contamination.
Replace as necessary.
Poor fusing of image
FRU Action
Fuser
The fuser may not be operating at the proper temperature to fuse
the toner to the paper. See“LVPS/HVPS Service Check” in
“Troubleshooting” for more information. Try changing the setting to
heavier paper or even card stock.
Media (not a FRU)
Make sure recommended media is being used.
Check the media settings in the printer driver.
