Hi everyone, I have this error code that appears during printing along with a noise that seems like gears, by removing the fusing unit the gear of the DRIVE fuser group starts to turn then stops emitting the noise described above, I wonder is it a problem with the gears of the drive group? I saw that removing this Drive group is a rather long and difficult job because it involves the disassembly of several parts, I tried to replace the M3 but I did not solve it, can anyone suggest me if there is something else to check? ..... I would like to avoid disassembling the Drive group

If I read correctly you said you removed fuser and still made noise? Not sure how you can do that without machine throwing a fuser code? I would check that the fuser unit isn't binding up. Turn gear by hand and see how hard it is to turn. I've had that code before and most of the time is was paper jammed in fuser or fuser roller bearings were bad/frozen. Usually on high page count machines. -

Here is another forum to help you. Put a new fuser unit in and see how it does.Comment

I can say that the M3 motor runs smoothly I have doubts about the M11 that I disassembled and that during the copying phase it only makes 1 turn then stops and when placing your finger on its surface it vibrates and makes a buzz ... I replaced it but it has the same problem could it be the electronic board that activates the motor?I also checked the fuser unit but it runs smoothly

We have had to change out the entire drive assembly on a few of these machines. Recently we did it on a 558e machine. The bushing wears out and there is a lot of play on the fuser drive gear. The machine will start to squeak. It is a process to remove it. Just take your time . It will probably take about an hour to get it out and replace it.👍 2Comment

once they get crispy they do harm only. ive tried with limited success to lube them with fuser oil but it only lasts a week while i order an new fuser if the belt is burnished.
they also slow the fuser down from too much drag as allen pointed out and can cause a daymare.We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
The medication helps though...👍 2Comment

Instead of removing them I've replaced the cleaning & brush rollers many times, of course with new bushings & bearings. Like leaving them in if customer does a lot of 2 sided printing. I've also removed them but on lower volume accounts.Comment

I get a same yield out of these fusers without the cleaning rollers and brushes. I am of the opinion that it is there to just remove the odd toner flak or two that build up on the separation pawls . The toner that come of the pawls will be present on the print out but the paper will clean that off soon enough. There is a reason the 3de part rebuild suppliers sells it with out if or pay extra for an addition kit containing the the AUX rollers. Its a waste of time and money IMO.WhateverComment
