    MP4500 Toner is Bleeding over Feed Roller - Need Solution?

    Cyan Toner has started to bleed and build up on roller and then it streaks on both sides of page.

    What is the solution for this? New Drum?

    Only the CYAN toner is doing this and it is concentrated on one side of the feed roller. Thw Rubber roller is the one under the fuser but located on the assembly which opens out.

    I appreciate any suggestions! Thanks!

    Pull out the Cyan PCU and check it out. Could also be a bad Transfer Belt Cleaning Unit.

      It's a paper transfer roller, not a feed roller. As Eric said, the cyan PCU has probably failed and requires replacement.
      It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

      Hit it.

        Also check the condition of the dev unit itself, they often do double their service life but when they start to get old they can drop a lot of toner.

          I know the "problem", but i never had quality issures because of that. Seems not a real problem for me.
