Kyocera TASKalfa 2554ci Print Quality, Streaks and Fading

Video Testimonials
Kyocera TASKalfa 2554ci Print Quality, Streaks and Fading

A mark on a TASKalfa 2554ci page tells you where the fault is, because a straight line down every sheet comes from the slit glass, patchy fading comes from toner or a driver set to draft, and colour that has drifted wants a calibration from the panel.

Read the page before you touch the machine.

A line in the same place on every sheet means the feeder is dragging paper past a speck on the slit glass, so clean that strip on the multifunction printer first with the cloth Kyocera supplies.

It is an easy fix and it takes about a minute.

Fading across a whole page usually means toner is low, or the driver is still set to a draft or toner saver mode from a previous job, which is worth checking alongside your secure printing settings.

Get a monthly figure that includes the repairs 

Colour drift is different again.

Where recurring faults keep interrupting your office, an all inclusive maintained printer lease bundles servicing, toner and support into one set monthly cost.

Run a colour calibration from the panel and print the test page before you conclude anything is wrong with the machine.

If the mark survives all of that, it is the drum or the developer unit, and that is a technician’s call.

Contact us for a consultation today and have someone look at it on site.

I would like to express my thanks for the excellent service I received from the service technician who resolved my jammed printer. His persistence and expertise resulted in the discovery of a tiny piece of torn paper that eluded discovery for nearly 30mins. This caused the printer to constantly trigger a jam error. The cost of the service was well worth the result. Many thanks, Anthony Torrens.
Response from the owner:Hi Anthony, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that our technician was able to track down the tiny piece of paper causing the jam. Sometimes it's the smallest things that create the biggest headaches, and we're pleased their persistence and attention to detail got your printer back up and running. We really appreciate your kind words and your support of our business. If we can ever assist you again, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
