1) Your sample images are terrible. Can't see a thing on them. You need to upload pictures that are at least 1920x1080 if you want us to be able to help you properly
2) by what I've read in your description it would seem like the area where the paper is feeding from the bypass has a build up of dirt and excess toner.
Strip that area and clean properly.
3) do a mid cycle stop. Do 1 stop at the fuser. 1 stop at registration and 1 when the paper enters the machine. On each look for the black marks that's causing the problem. This will make it easier to locate where the problem is coming from
4) remember the 200sgm and 250sgm has less flexibility than 80sgm paper. Therefore 200 and 250 sgm paper will rub against parts of the machine that the 80sgm won't.

Hope this helps.

All the best friend

Does this line repeats at some equal interval? If yes find diameter of offending part and clean/adjust/replace it. Konica has loop sensor which helps with correction and synchronization of paper entering fuser that may be involved also if Ricoh has similar.

Could be the ITB cleaning unit failing. It's very cheap and easy to replace. It's only spec'd for 300k.

Also check the fusing sleeve, 3rd pic looks like the fuser but can't tell for sure

Remove the fuser unit & check the sleeve for a line or score mark corresponding to the same position on your print outs.

HAHAHAHA! The difference in our generations! Their phones are the "go to" device for their generation. Remember when WE were kids? You could point your black Bell telephone at something all day long and never get a photo! ( and a selfie was something you did to yourself in the bathroom and filled you with shame...)

While that's true in many cases, Tullio aint no 'spring chicken'! He's just not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and I (Like Tim) have asked countless times why he refuses to use the wonderful technology that exists right before is eyes to provide proper samples. He refuses to listen, learn, or change anything, so I just ignore the hell out of his "urgent" posts
