Final Proof (Luxel 5600) problems

[Munsell]

We just got at used Fuji Final Proofer from another plant. Its been working fine until now. The proofs its outputting are coming out extremely washed out with a strange moire pattern. Its like the controller is trying to screen the files again.

I output separated screened Tiffs from a Nexus RIP. 2400 dpi. Both 150 and 170 lpi. I believe I've narrowed the problem down to the Fuji machine. I have tried re-releasing a few jobs that ran fine, and they output the same way. Is there a problem with the laser setting? Is something dirty?

Any help would be appreciated. Since the machine was used, it was installed without too much instruction. I have manuals, but nothing really addresses this problem.

Well...found the problem. Simple as loose cables. Figures.
