    The fusers with the big pressure rollers take a long time to warm up coming out of sleep, many customer complaints.

    The gears don't break on the skinny fusers as long as the fusers are rebuilt when they are due at 450K, and the gear is replaced about every third fuser rebuild.

    i dont find that...and i think that skinny roller is not a good design..
    The surface should be harder....
    I know the old heavy 1075 roller took longer to warm up but they ran n ran..

    Actually it is the size of the fusing roller and its thickness that affect warmup time. The newer 50-80 ppm model with thinner fusing rollers and therefore less metal mass to warm up, take much less time to warmup.

    If you (topic-starter) mean the 1. Tray,
    I had the same issue - actually it was nothing really wrong with the machine. All I had to do is to take all the paper from both trays, insert the empty trays in the machine, let it recognize it, an than to fiil the paper, afterwards everything worked without any issues for many months.
    Btw I show all my customers the best way to fill paper in this tray:
    1. fill only the left tray (it is much more convinient to fill),
    2. insert both trays, and let the machine transport the paper to the right,
    3. fill the left tray once more.
    Those who use this method, never break the fence.

    My customers end up bending the right side rear metal frame because they heavy hand the paper load.
    I too tried telling them load the beefy left side tray and they respond i cant wait for it to load..
    I give up and just go thru my day...

    Check the rails that the trays slide on. There are screws that loosen over time and cause a poor connection.
