Its not too noticable, but I worry it may turn into something major!! Thanks Heather	Guest (0)

You say the 'pits' dont repeat from page to page but you need to measure the distance between each 'pit' on one page only..... If a pattern crops up it will be one of 2 things either the drum or the Fuser rollers... Let us know what you find.. ==Orac==	Guest (0)

I would guess that it would be cheaper in the long run to buy a new one than have it repaired. gggrrr. (number 3 son offered to hold it upside down while I blasted it with the hairdryer to see if its dust thats causing the problem, can't do any harm I suppose). Thanks so much again.	Guest (0)
