MP 2501 Faint copies after new drum and developer.urgent

[sandmanmac]

It was never indicated by the original post whether it was the same 'faint copies' before the replacement of drum and dev?
It was never mentioned whether or not the drum/dev had run to cycle or had failed prematurely?
It was never answered if the gears are all in good condition.
He never answered if slit glass was checked, or the two times he was asked about proper dev? toner?
All he gives is 2 word answers or NONE at all!

Good Luck

Had this same problem with the MP 2501. You must use OEM developer and especially OEM drum.

Also be careful with the fuser, use OEM upper and lower rollers.

And finally, the adf, use oem sep tire.

Good luck
