We recently, within the last 4 months bought a Xerox 242 with Fiery Rip through Fuji Film. So far it has been a really good machine. However, over the last several jobs I've noticed that color has been changing on the sheets. I used one of our offset Xrites to check the color and sure enough it's shifting. This includes all colors, even solid blacks. We have been using the same paper and the same profile for all jobs. I haven't talked to our Fuji contacts yet, but plan to on Monday.
The first job was so bad the covers just kept getting lighter and lighter through a run of 150 copies on some Tango 12pt C1S.
I restarted the machine and RIP server several times, to no avail. Eventually, changed all the drums and the fuser, problem seemed to go away. However, the problem is back and the drums still have a lot of life left in them. I shouldn't have to change the drums for every job should I?
Also the toner is getting "speckled/marbleized" on the sheet after a few hundred sheets, maybe fuser is getting hot? Whereas the first couple are solid color....
Paper is Finch Color Copy ( Usually runs really well with the machine)
Any ideas guys?
