  2. Fuzzy/grainy horizontal bands and color seperation a few feet into the beginning of every print hp latex 360 (update)

  4. CL catridges how do they actually work

    There is a glass encoder disc inside the motor that needs cleaning. You need to remove the side panel to be able to remove the motor. Once you have it out, you need to unsolder the PCB to be able to clean the disk. Resolder and replace and you are good to go again.
