Aficio MPC - 7500 CHARGE ROLLERS LINES

[msaeger]

Yeah I went to one today that look like wax too so I guess the bulletin is probably right

Maybe I will try running one without a lube bar.

[bbapst]

maybe just removing the springs on the lube bar might help. Could the pressure of the springs being forcing too much wax onto the brush? The 3260 seemed to work fine with just gravity.

The 3260 had that weight on it but yeah maybe changing the pressure would help. I have one I have been messing with. They make tons of pages with the whole page blue so they keep getting lines on cyan. Last time I took the brush out of the cyan charge roller and it has gone for quite a while but I don't know how many copies. Next time maybe I will so something with the lube bar.

I think (I Know) you will find that without the lube bar the drum surface will be ruined in no time flat!

I was thinking along the lines of yanking the springs, too. Maybe stretching them is a better plan.

What's really needed is a more effective charge cleaning roller - that foam thing just doesn't cut it. Has anybody though about trying to hack in the brush from an MP4000 or something like that? An actual brush type charge roller cleaner would seem to be much more effective to me - and dirty charge rollers don't seem to be among the persistent problems with the MP4000's (at least the charge roller is no more filthy than the rest of the PCDU) I have no idea if it will fit, just throwing it out there.

Had a different problem with one today - See new thread: MPC7500 Toner Pump Failure

I thought about the MP4000 brush I tried putting one in and it wasn't long enough. Anyone think of a machine with a brush like that, that is longer ? I still haven't gotten a call about the one I took the brush out of.

I feel your pain Shadow1. I expected to see a better product after 3260 and 5560 and when 6000 came out I start dreaming bout Pro 550...
Now I'm out of resources and I can tell you that these machines are a lost cause.
From preflight these machine are throuwing SC 672's, dev is leaking from it's original container and many other issues right from the box.
