I have a Xerox c2424. I"m getting a blurry page. I have run the "eliminate white strips " and "remove print smears", as well as changed the maintenance kit. I get 1 good, clear copy and then a blurry one...then I have to run "remove print smears" again and then I get 1 good copy again..and then a blurry one. Any ideas?

Hi

Printers that use "toner" (dry ink) rely on heat from the "fuser" unit to melt the ink into the paper. If the "fuser" is becoming slow to "warm-up", then the toner is not getting properly melted into the paper.

i recommend you should change the fuser.

Thanks.

1. Reboot the xerox machine.
2. Verify the lock arms rotate correctly.
3. Check for spilled ink around the printhead.
4. Check the process motor gears for damage. Ensure the process gears are correctly aligned and homed.
5. Verify the process gear box, process shaft, and drive module shaft are at home position.
6. Verify the headtilt gear will engage, see the home positioning procedure on page. You can manually engage the headtilt gear.
7. Run the Tilt Axis Drive test.
8. Run the Process Motor test.
9. Run the Head Maintenance Clutch test, if the test fails replace the clutch.
10.Run Wiper Drive test. If this fails inspect the wiper drive system.
11.Check the printhead as well.
