    8 series PCR covers missing

    Has anyone ever seen OEM drum units without the plastic clip on cover for the charge & charge cleaning rollers? Just bought an off lease C258 with only 6K on meter. All the drums are missing the PCR covers. I did verify all the drums are OEM and still new condition which matches the low meter.

    Thanks in advance

    Yes we see that a lot, no problem.
    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.

      The original drums that ship in the machine from the factory do not contain those covers. All OEM replacement drums do. Not sure why that is, but that's what we have been seeing on all the 8-series machines.
