    Aficio MP C2500 Black toner pump

    I just ordered one of these from my vendor , when I opened the box there was a yellow substance on the pump and inside , just a small amount , it looked like yellow toner , suspect it may be a used part . Has anyone seen this and knows if its a lubricant of some sort or if I am right to suspect that the part may be used and was cleaned up a bit to look new . I do not remember seeing this kind of lubricant before , but my vendor swears that thats all it is . The part was in a good clean box that looked like a genuine Ricoh part . Thanks in advance , Ark .

    yes, they use yellow as lubricant when they build pumps.
    At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.

    Yep. All of mine come with yellow stuff in them. The D029 ones too.
