    different kind of xerox 700 streaking

    When you look closely, does it look like thin lines. If it does, it's possible that the cleaning blade on the IBT belt has got a tiny nick in it. The only way around this is to replace the blade because even if you clean the area, it will keep on building up with waste toner.

    We're a small printing company running a Xerox 700. We are currently outsourcing our laminating (Business Cards, Book Cover, etc). We only spend around £1000 a year so it's not been worth looking at anything too high-end. I've looked around at table top laminators, but it's very confusing that...
