    Hello everyone, I have a problem with the color outputs (spots ?). On the other hand in black print only, I do not have the spots. Thank you for your help

    If I reply in English, would you have any understanding of my messages?
    I can try to use a translator, but the technical terms might become lost...

    Something is going on while the toner is on the image transfer belt. It could be something coming in contact with the belt (warped part dragging the toner) or it could be the ITB cleaning station failing in some way.

    you can see the streaks on the image are made of the primary colors, not a blend or mix of color

    Thank you for your answer. I found the lines on the drums which then is found on the belt and on the 2nd btr then on the back of the sheet passing only on the front.

    Since the problem has spread quite a bit it may be difficult to identify the initial culprit.

    my guess would be the drum’s smooth outer layer degraded so much they began to mark up the belt. Unfortunately every will need replacement at this point.

    After changing the drums, the problem persists but it becomes random.
    I have completely cleaned 2nd btr and the ibt cleaner.
    Thank you for your help

    If the ITB itself has hard lines etched into the belt’s surface, you may have no choice but to replace the belt.

    I must ask; are you using the proper paper settings when running your work? And is the paper being used within the specs of the machine?

    Looks like you need to replace the IBT cleaning blade

    Thank you all. By changing the cleaning blade everything is ok.
    It's still weird to have had the problem on all the colored drums at the same time.

    It’s not the drums that were the problem, the belt carries all four colors to the paper, So an issue with the belt will present through your entire image. Through all colors
