    sounds like you aren't buying OEM.

      yeah, OEM you get the whole fuser and a warranty
      We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
      The medication helps though...

        Thanks for responce.


        I'm not buying OEM, because there isn't one on sale. They are just selling the whole fuser. I need just the belt. I hope that there is compatible belt with better quality that the ones i bought.

              1st this company has only been in business for 1 year ( per their website )

              alot of the boards ect look to be PULLED parts ( I avoid them like the plague )

              2nd Chinese company... list the parts ( films rollers ect ) as NEW but NOT OEM. OEM has strict manufacturing guide lines for the items... 3rd parties cannot formulate the same as OEM ( copyright infringement ) so they use cheaper products. cheaper products = headaches all the way around ( look at all the posts on 3rd party toners & drums )

              are you an indy or dealer tech? if dealer have the boos get off his wallet!

                  I think you are kinda missing the point here. In purchasing an aftermarket fusing belt you are not going to get the quality of an OEM product, hence the issues you are experiencing with the cracking. Since KonMin doesn't sell the the belt separately, the whole fuser is the best option.

                    If you still have unused belts I would try with a new sponge roller if it has done 2 cycles, the cracks looks to be caused by some squeezed ends of the sponge roller.
                    Defects are simple, our mind is complicated

                      KM is in Bulgaria.
                      KONICA MINOLTA Bulgaria
                      (if sofia is in BG)
                      has to be a dealer or independent that can order you a whole fuser. no?
                      We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
