• Acquire your measuring tool from the Nationalization Kit
and check the frequency of the spot intervals:
• If the defect occurs every 44 mm on the prints, do not
replace the drum. This interval is caused by a damaged
or defective Developer Housing.
• If spots or bands occur every 147 mm on the prints, the
Yellow, Magenta, Black or Cyan Drum is damaged or light-
shocked. Run your Halftone Test Pattern to determine
which color drum is affected. Replace or swap the appro-
priate Drum cartridge (Replacing a Drum Cartridge).
