I thought I had seen where the type 1027 pcu will fit a Ricoh 3025 (savin 8025). Could anyone verify this? Thank you.

VERIFIED!
FYI, also fits MP2550/3350 and MP2851/3351 series
Also the 3025 pcu will fit the 1027/2027 series if you remove 2 plastic pins from the rear of the pcu.
Many thanks for the verification for the type 1027 and the additional info about the 3025 pcu!
yea but I would not recommend it.. be prepare to get a good vacuum and filters after 2 months...it will dump toner all over the machine down to trays and feed tires....
have fun cleanig it...

No it wont we use them all the time in over 40 machines as long as you replace them every 60-80k theres no problem ive actually found the PCU that comes with the newer models is more of a problem with toner dumping.
I don't know how many machines you have in your area but we had one tech who is great at swapping the 1027 pcus on 400 machines (MP3025/2550) in our area. It cost more just to keep up with the cleaning and changing it back to the B205 pcu. Up to now, the managers are thinking about firing him for doing it.
it cost around $350 for 1027 pcu
it only cost $180 to rebuild B205 pcu with drum charge, cl blade, charge cleaning, developer.
Why? why? why spent more?
Do you do rebuilds at 40K as recommended? the 1027 pcu assembly lasts upto 90k with a bit of TLC. so that's like cheaper when you include the labour time spent on a rebuild.
you must be kidding me right? the B205 can go up to 80k still without any issue if you do the pm correctly. I've seen the 1027 pcu didn't last for 12k after the replacement.
