    get an engineer..

    i know it sounds short but you really should have a contract on these type of machines if not it could cost quite a bit.

    ok, i think this is caused by the dev dropping below 6 - 10%, have you been printing big solids of cyan?? a new drum should do the fix, but you may need an engineer to reset the machine.. Thats what it was on my km anyway

    if it is a dev issue...

    Have not experienced this. But if it is an issue with the developer, I imagine you'd have to get a developer kit (foil pouch of cyan developer for the 252), pull that drum, pull the developer assembly, take off the black cover which is held on by a couple screws, clean out the old developer and then evenly pour in the new developer.
