    I tried printing today after the imaging process but I realized only two colors are printing on the sheets(yellow & magenta) which is tower-1, cyan and black is not printing on the sheet but i can see cyan and black ink on the plate and blanket. However, a noise was coming from the impression cylinder area. Please, kindly help with solution. Thanks

    Test the cylinder solenoids (magnets) from tower cyan +black, if is going ON.!

    look for loose wires, or air leaking, etc...
