    Well, we have a tech-in-learning who repaired some MP201 fusing units (fusing roller and pressure roller replacement, the usual). Problem is, four of the fusing units he repaired got the brand-new rollers melted together. As far as I know it hasn't happened with any other tech (the situation I mentioned before was a brand-new machine).

    Since I believe it isn't a coincidence, I'm opening up the latest fusing unit that suffered that fate so I can find out what could've gone wrong, but I'd like to know if anyone else that has been there and done that who can give me some insight.

    I'll bet the thermistor wasnt touching the upper roll

    You never realize how cheap a professional is until after you let an amateur do it.

    Hard to tell, but it ocurred to me. I told him to slighly bend the thermistor in the direction of the roller when replacing the damaged rollers. Thanks for the tip.
