Normal Mottled Color Loss Cause: The transfer electric field on the concave portion of paper is weakened to cause a decrease in transcription. This may occur if: • Using paper with a rough surface • Continuously printing an image that consumes little toner • Printing is done at high temperature or humidity Solution: Before you perform the solution procedure, make sure that the periodic replacement parts have not reached their expiration period. For details about checking the replacement date, see the Adjustment Item Menu Guide. If the periodic replacement parts have reached their expiration period, replace them. For details about replacing the parts, see the Replacement Guide. 1. In the [Machine: Image Quality] group on the [Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators] menu, select [Adjust Image Density] and execute [Image Density Adjustment: Manual Execute]. 2. Print the image. Is the problem resolved? Yes Finished! 35
