Re: C554 vs c454 fuser?
Probably the most common issue with the models that use that style fuser.
Brush Cleaning Roller A2XK740400
Teflon Cleaning Roller A2XK740301
Cleaning roller bushing A2XK742901
Brush roller bushing A161771000
There may be new style / color bushings?
Ball bearing 4120550302
The small bearings that disintegrates is used in a lot of finishers, FS 527, FS 534, etc. I take them out to use in these fusers when I strip parts off finishers before trashing.Comment

Re: C554 vs c454 fuser?
Also wanted to add I've seen both cleaning rollers removed and machine ran 100's of thousands prints with no fuser issues. All single side of course, don't think it would hold up well with a lot of 2 sided.
I've personally left the cleaning rollers out out for a few weeks while getting parts and returning. No unusal build up on rollers, etc. Rollers look fine. Think you could leave them out permanently on high volume account that run mostly 20lb plain paper single side only, but don't hold me to itComment

Re: C554 vs c454 fuser?
The whole assy. with both cleaning rollers or just one of the roller assys? If just one of the rollers, which one? We've never tried removing either of them so I was wanting the inside info.Started in the copier service business in the fall of 1988 and worked at the same company for 33.5 years, becoming the senior tech in 2004 but left to pursue another career on 4/29/22.Comment

The pressure rollers of the two models are different, the fixing film is different, and the sponge roller inside the fixing film is also differentComment

What we do is just remove the brush roller assembly once that bushing wears out on it. It's as simple as removing the 2 small springs and 1 E-clip. The brush roller assembly then slides to the side a little bit and comes right out. Have never had a problem with dirty pages because of removing the brush roller.A Ricoh Service Tech for 7 year.
