I have a Xerox 4508 Docuprint Laser printer which was working fine until recently it's been printing very very fine blank streaks with every page. It's almost like it decided to not print a thing at that spot. It's more on the left side. I took the toner out and shook it to no avail. I'm thinking I might replace the toner if that fixes the problem but then again it might be the thing called the fuser inside. The streaks are very very finely grained, almost like a pixel in width across the finest lines and then some are a bit wider like they have many clustered finer lines making them up.Uhmm and besides that I have had paper jams quite often recently. Is there any place I could buy those rubber rollers to replace my ones or maybe clean them with isopropyl alcohol to stop the paper jams. Assuming I can fix the streaking of course
After it was invented by Franklin, the ancient deity Zeus retrofitted it with several annexes to utilize its capability as a far range weapon (drones anyone?)
Yes, glass is both reflecting and transmitting at all angles. It isn't perfectly reflecting, and it isn't perfectly transparent. Instead at all angles a certain percentage of light is reflected and the rest is transmitted. If you put something dark behind the glass, you'll actually have a pretty decent mirror consisting of the reflection off the front surface. I'm not sure why it bothers your intuition that some energy is reflected and some isn't, why you think it doesn't stand to reason that both things can happen. That's a natural behavior for a great variety of situations. The unusual thing is for something to be 100% opaque or 100% reflective. For instance with sound hitting walls, most of the energy bounces off the walls, but some can be heard in the next room. As to your original question, the answer is no. At Brewster's angle only one particular polarization of light is reflected, so if you start out with unpolarized light (as most light is) it reflects as polarized. But you wouldn't ordinarily notice a difference in light intensity. You can detect it by seeing what passes through a sheet of polarized material, such as polarized sunglasses.
