Phaser 8560 blurr

You will probably have to replace the ink loader

you didn't say anything about ink/toner!

The good news is that you don't need any parts.
The oil from the drum is drooling to the right side to the Drum Position Sensor is located.

Remove the right cover. Remove the fan. Loosen the clear plastic cover under that. Clean the sensor and all the wires with very pure Isopropyl or denatured alcohol.
The situation may reoccur every year or so.

First off on your screen access troubleshooting, and perform the remove light strips and also remove smears and skips.
Next go to Xerox.com, under support and drivers enter 8560 in the search box. then go to the support page.
You want to look up the procedures for TEC color correction. And follow those steps.
If you are using a generic ink then, all bets are off in getting true color reproduction.

This was due to the TFTP (PXE) setting on the printer set to on. No more wasted paper at startup/wakeup after changing setting to off.

Even though Media Sciences ink is not compatable and is subject to burning and clogging your printhead, the most telling symptom you listed is the red shavings. This indicates the ink is not releasing from the drum properly. This version of solid ink has a problem with the cams on the maintenance camshaft cracking and this causes the maintenance kit roller to not oil the drum properly. You will also hear an odd noise either grinding, groaning or a slight tearing sound. This requires a technician to resolve as replacing the camshaft is not an enduser job. Print quality issues are either the printhead or related to the camshaft failing, there are a few others but they wouldn't exhibit the symptoms you listed.
