Cyan cartridge is almost new at 93%

 

Cyan drum is lowest in machine at 50%

 

Yellow cartridge is low; but still putting out yellow

 

Don’t have a good idea of when it happened.  Not used for color very often and black is fine.  No errors reported.

 

 

Any ideas appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

 

Joe

Changed the very noisy fan (paper path or fuser?) and we’re back to blue.

 

Fan was still moving a lot of air; but maybe not enough.  Fan I replaced it with had a slightly higher amperage rating (+ 10%).  Much more quite.9500 demo w new fan.jpg
