MB2720 Not Printing Whole Bands

GFasolt

My MB2720 recently stopped printing portions of pages; skipping several lines at a time.  I have performed deep cleaning several times, but no joy. Note from the scan of the test pattern below that a portion of the black printing patter is missing both at the top of the pattern and at the bottom.  The results may be seen in the document below

Hi GFasoit,

 

Because performing cleanings did not get your MAXIFY MB2720 to print correctly, the next step would be to clean the encoder.  To do this, please follow the steps in this article:

I tried flushing the print head with alcohol and it still is missing the whole band which is 1/2 the width of the print head. Please let us know what PCB or other part needs to be replace to fix it. I don't want this sent out to service and pay more than a new printer to get it fixed.
