    I'm not a tech, so I don't have any great advice to offer - we've only had this type of color offset happen when we got toner under our transfer belt on the ITB assembly rollers under/inside the belt. Check the ITB assembly without touching the belt and check the cleaning blade. How many prints are on the current ITB -- it might be time to get a tech out to give the ITB assembly a cleaning & rebuild if there's nothing obvious.

    irc3220 blurry images when printing in color misalignment

    Although it did help somewhat the solution to it is to clean the transfer belt unit. When toner gets inside the unit and causes it to slip and thus misaligning the colors. To clean it you have to take the unit apart and clean all of the rollers as well as the inside of the transfer belt be very cautious not damage the belt when taking it of the rollers. Take your time while doing it. And make sure you put it back together the way it was. It is not hard to do just take it slow. If you must use liquid when cleaning use ALCOHOL with no additives and soft cloth.

    Thanks for the help Eugene.
