    Hi.

    Recently started to get noticeable black toner drop down on prints and copies. I have vacced out all of the toner around the dev and drums. Replaced the black drum and dev unit. Cleaned the cleaning unit etc, cleaned the ros units. The problem remains. The drop down appears in random spots and can be clear for a number of pages before spotting the next 200 pages all in random areas. Does any one have any suggestions?

    Thanks Chris

    After all that you've done...it's a tough call. Could the cleaning station itself, or it's power supply require replacement?
    If the issue remained unchanged with the developer unit replacement, i'm liable to think there may something else wrong with the cleaner. When you examine the cleaner after running the machine a while, does it appear overly filthy?

    I'd like to rule out the transfer belt since the issue only appears with black.
