    The Technician will say this is normal for coated media after the press ages a bit. They can fix it however, with the replacing of the secondary fixing roller and collecting roller. The may be reluctant at first, but these scratches/streaks bother me quite a bit. Especially on larger print pieces.

    Hm. How many clicks? Maybe the fixing roller was blemished in some way during the install. Or the collecting roller has an imperfect finish (this roller cleans the fixing roller, its solid steel and any defect here would leave on imprint on the delicate fuser roller)

    it did less than 10 thousand clicks,fixing roller changed and collecting roller is also OK. if you have a machine 6010 running, can you print a black job (cyan 30 black 100) on paper 2 side coated 300 gsm on 33x48cm paper size and tell me kind of scratches you can find?
    thanks
