    The best approach is to be on the machine and make a functional test,i.e. try to run many copies while studying the fault, paying particular attention to the GROANING noise. NOISE ussually occur because of FRICTIONAL FORCES between surfaces in contact. You already have a clue that it happens only on the "copy" function, that is good lead. Be systematic and you should be able to narrow the noise to a particular functional block, and eventually to the exact 'area' or part, after which u take corrective measures; may by lubrication or whatever. try!

    Why then bother about a machine you are not to make money on? I've never done that in my 25 years of service in this business. Business is all about making or losing money.

    I come here LOOKING FOR HELP,not dripping sarcasm telling me about what a groan is.I KNOW<the simple request wasDO YOU* KNOW THE MACHINE AND HAVE EXPERIENCED NOISES AND FROM WHERE".THE models I KNOW intimately ,I can help others who are new to machine with so they wont have to spend 5 hours and a can of WD40on.On an older model that can be replaced inexpesively,HOW much can I hurt a customer with a service call with.If you know a machine GENERALLY has noise issues from A particuliar cluth for EXAMPLE,THEMN Offer the help. THATS I kind of help I expect from someone.I wish I had freedom of spech here,unfortunately the machines i know best HAVE COME AND GONE,so I am not talking from a position of strength here.I WOULD IF I COULD HELP A FELLOW TECT THAT WAY.The bet I could say is <SHOW A LITTLE RESPECT FOR an old timer which you would do if you were really GOON HOO for your profession

    cucuklotz,
    We see a lot of fusers during our repair process that have torn films at one end after the machine has been in the field for a while.
    This has been known to cause a "groaning" at times.
    Unfortunately,it is very difficult to see the film in the fuser while it is still in the machine.
    I can get you a refurbished and like new fixing assembly for a very good price if you find that to be the cause of your noise.
    I also sent you a PM.

    good luck

    With that attitude, I wouldn't even think of helping you. That guy was trying to help and if it didn't help you solve your problem, say thanks anyway and move on. Im right in Jersey and could get you a fuser too but I think I'll pass,
