Symptom:
intermittent
/
Random magenta banding across full color copy (front to rear). This banding is most
noticeable in blue or gray image areas.
Cause:
Bias voltage applied to the magenta development roller is not consistent due to poor conductivity
between the shaft and the roller bearing
/
bushing.
Solution:
Install a conductive Bearing 6 x 10 x 3 (P/N
08053496),
flange side in, and Lock Washer
(P/N
H0014219),
tabs out, onto the rear of the magenta development roller shaft. This effectively creates
two points of bias contact
/
conductivity.
Note: This countermeasure was scheduled to be implemented beginning with July 1997 production.
Additional details will be reflected in a Parts Modification Bulletin.
