    Fuser driller damage

    Ok I'm running my C454e. I got some transfer paper. Honestly I ran a few before this one I didn't read the package but I out it in run a copy then bam bad prints. Then realise I have junk on the fuser. When I take a look this is Wat I found.

    Is it fixable?
    Or would I need anew fuser or just a new roller or just remove the paper hats in here and good to go again. Nope that's as far as I got. I was able to remove the fuser. As for opening it up no luck so gonna take it to my repair guy.
    But I really want to know where I stand please thanks

    Re: Fuser driller damage

    It looks like the teflon is scratched through, to me like. If you can get a heat roller separately, that will fix it, or the whole fuser.

    Yeah, I wouldn't have tried transfers.
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

        Do you happen to have the part number for the heat roller
        I was able to find the lower fuser roller on a site I purchase from but not the heat roller
        thx

          KM don't make available the parts inside these fusers.

          When i see this sort of thing its new fuser time and a bill for it and the time to change it as media damage isnt covered.

          If its your own machine at home then by all means go with aftermarket bits to rebuild that fuser but it's not a walk in the park if you haven't done it before. Personally I'd just find a second hand fusing unit from a scrap machine if buying a brand new one is out of the question.

            Officially you can't rebuild these fusers, simply replace the complete unit. They are good for around 500K prints.

            As it happens i'm selling a new one unopened, drop me a PM should you be interested.

                Ok, lets say that you are able to remove the paper. How does that restore the scratched teflon on the roller? =^..^=

                  yup, cant put a bandaid on a broken arm.
                  We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
                  The medication helps though...

                    Re: Fuser driller damage

                    I know will need a new fuser. However I've seen the fuser roller sold seperately. I just need to be able to have that part and a new fuser just in case this happens again.

                    With limited flights to the island I have to be able to be as resourceful in terms of having items on stock.
                    I've seen some YouTube Videos with persons changing over the fuser roller.
                    I've done so with my Xerox and now have two funders a new and a rebuilt one just for times like these.

                      Not too hard to rebuild. Take lots of photos before and while you disassemble the unit.
                      Some suppliers sell the parts in kit form. Think there are 2 kits for this fuser.
                      One include the pressure roller and film sleeve. The other contains the cleaning roller the cleaning brush and bushings.

                      So get a new one and rebuild the damaged unit for a spare.
                      Whatever

                        Re: Fuser driller damage

                        Are you asking if I know a way of making a teflon coated fuser roller out a plastic water bottle and a 14" length of black pipe?

                        The answer is no. =^..^=

                              Agreed although I didn't rebuild them. Link to good how-to video:
                              A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
                              Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
