Print quality troubleshooting tools Repetitive image defect ruler Defects on product rollers can cause image defects to appear at regular intervals on the page, corresponding to the circumference of the roller that is causing the defect. Measure the distance between defects that recur on a page. Use the following table or the repetitive-defect ruler to determine which roller is causing the defect. To resolve the problem, try cleaning the roller before replacing it. CAUTION: Do not use solvents or oils to clean rollers. Instead, rub the roller with lint-free paper. If dirt is difficult to remove, rub the roller with lint-free paper that has been dampened with water. NOTE: The following table replaces the graphical repetitive defect ruler. You can make your own ruler by using these measurements. For the most accurate results, use a metric ruler. Table 3-17 Repetitive defects Component Distance between defects Primary charging roller 37.7 mm (1.5 inches) Transfer roller 47 mm (1.85 inches) Developer roller 63 mm (2.5 inches) Tray 1 pickup roller 63 mm (2.5 inches) Tray 1 feed roller 79 mm (3.1 inches) Tray 1 separation roller Tray 2 feed roller 79 mm (3.1 inches) Tray 2 pickup roller Tray 2 separation roller Fuser sleeve unit or pressure roller 94 mm (3.75 inches) Photosensitive drum 94 mm (3.75 inches) NOTE: Defects on the tray pickup rollers or the Tray 1 pickup roller do not cause a repetitive defect. Defects on these rollers cause a defect to appear only on the leading edge of the image. To use all of the capabilities of this product, a firmware upgrade might be required. HP recommends that you periodically go to www.hp.com/go/lj600Series_software to see if a new version of firmware is available. 246 Chapter 3 Solve problems ENWW

Repetitive image defect ruler

Defects on product rollers can cause image defects to appear at regular intervals on the page,

corresponding to the circumference of the roller that is causing the defect. Measure the distance

between defects that recur on a page. Use the following table or the repetitive-defect ruler to determine

which roller is causing the defect. To resolve the problem, try cleaning the roller before replacing it.

CAUTION:

Do not use solvents or oils to clean rollers. Instead, rub the roller with lint-free paper. If

dirt is difficult to remove, rub the roller with lint-free paper that has been dampened with water.

NOTE:

The following table replaces the graphical repetitive defect ruler. You can make your own

ruler by using these measurements. For the most accurate results, use a metric ruler.

Defects on these rollers cause a defect to appear only on the leading edge of the image.

To use all of the capabilities of this product, a firmware upgrade might be required. HP recommends

that you periodically go to
