you would have to open it up, and inside are some lenticular mirrors the
image bounces off of when its scanned. The mirrors likely have a mild dust
buildup on them, which results in 'filtering' the image to a very light
impression.

| I have a brother MFC-9600 Printer/Scanner/Photocopier/Fax comobo unit.
| Recently I found out the photocopy doesn't work right. It would
| produce a very light print out similar to a unit very low on toner.
|
| The unit has plenty of toner left and the laser printing unit is in
| perfect order as it makes good, black prints when I send a print job to
| it from my computer.
|
| The scanner also produces good contrast when I scan to computer from
| the unit.
|
| I checked copy settings such as "document type" and "contrast" from
| maximum to minimum, but the unit continues to produce very light
| prints. Since the scanning and printing units are both in good working
| order, I don't understand why photocopier function won't work
| correctly.
|
| Any clue?
