    HEy guys, I have a streak going lead edge to trail edge, Looks like a screen drag on the belt, But I have replaced the screens, and the belt. Along with all of the wire mods. I have moved all of the Charge stations around hoping that it would change in color, but it is persistant in just lightening the image all the way across. Lets see I think I can get a photo to upload.

    Its the lamp that is just under the cleaning brushes and above the magnet. I guess you can clean it off with some fingernail polis remover... not film remover, and the big fluffy Q tip looking swabs.

    Cross Process Uniformity Correction.

    It helps to "hide" most streaks - but not all - by reading developed patches of each colour and correcting any irregularities by adjusting the lasers. It sees a dirty lamp as dark patches and tries to correct by lightening that area

    It's basically a "scanner" for uniformity in iGen 4s

    Got it! thanks Mark, Milo! I knew that technology was in there, but never heard the technical term, as I have not personally had an issue there YET. Hadn't even looked at it. I clean those magnets off regularly though.

    Note: that process is MUCH nicer than the nexpress, and the cards and wand spectro photometer. :) i HATED that.
