Print-Quality Troubleshooting
Repeating Defect Measurement
When horizontal lines and/or spots occurs periodically, it is possibly caused by
a defect on a particular Roller. Measure the interval of the defect on the test
print and check the relation to the Roller in the table. The interval does not
necessarily match the circumference of the Roller.
