    iRC3220 ain't that bad option, but I'd choose a device from the iRC2380-3580 range. Those devices are real workhorses; we have few of them with over 600k in meter, and they are still running with original fusers etc. Much more worry-free device than iRC3220 or 3200.

        both the 3220 series and 3480 series machines are good devices. From a repair point of view I like the 3220 series and the print quality is better than 3480 series. If you have the extra money a 5180 series is just as easy to work on as well, but the fuser assembly is a little costly, but a real work horse. We have several of these in the 2.5 - 3 million range.
        Accidents don't just happen. They must be carelessly planned.

              u better make sure the fuser unit has been replaced recently / ask for paperwork on it-

              these units can cost between 800.00/1,200 US dollars to replace- there is no rebuilding these in the field anymore

                  First --Get yourself a 5180 service manual
                  Next---u need to check if 5180 has latest firmware -
                  Run some PG 10's test prints- to inspect for Fix unit surface wear or damage-
                  check error log for E007 codes> if not cleared already
                  FUSER.JPGpicture of new unit/
                  could check counter in service mode

                  SERVICE MODE
                  press *Additional Functions Key (once)
                  press #2 & 8 key at the same time (release both)
                  then press *Additional Functions Key again (release it)

                  the service mode is for experience tech's/
                  u can cause issues & problems if not familiar with it

                  COPIER > COUNTER > DRBL-1 > FIX-BLT-U
                  COPIER > COUNTER > DRBL-1 > FIX-BLT-L


                  you should not clear these counters unless u replace entire unit/
                  a third party or fourth party may have done so for sales purpose


                  if u ever need to replace a Fix unit > u need to run this adjustment
                  Enter the Service mode--only run this when replacing a unit
                  COPIER > FUNCTION > FIXING > FX-UHP-S > OK
                  --Check that 'FX-UHP-S is OK (It will take for about 3 minutes.)

                  Then Select COPIER > FUNCTION > FIXING > FX-LHP-S > OK
                  --Check that 'FX- LHP -S is OK (It will take for about 5 minutes.)
