Hi,

 

Since a few days I am having issues with my printer, it seems to have no issues printing in B&W weirdly. Colors are somehow spilling.

I have tried the following:

  1. Updated to latest firmware and driver => no effect
  2. Hard reset => no effect
  3. Changed color toners => no effect
  4. Changed drummer => seems to have reduced the ghosting but i still get weird color prints

Any idea what would be the culprit ? The fuser ?

Here are 4 prints of test pages, all with different defects...

TIA
