Do you think parts will be available for the next 2-3 years. Thx
    They are cheap for a reason, 7020`s were horrible as they got a bit of use on them. Typically dev units would fail spewing dev everywhere, the toner recyclers would block up, the seals on the drum carriage would fail causing toner spill. All of that then the feed system would break its gears as previously posted. Also be careful if you do get any because different models have different toner/dev combinations ie 7020 dev/toner doesnt go in a 7135( which was a developement of the 7020). All in all I would avoid these machines....

    Biggest problem is the paper feed system - the gears at the back break quite easily and they're a pain to replace.

    Yes they were a good box ten years ago. lol. We still have many in the field but Konica Minolta has them on the end of life for next year where they will no longer be manufacturing parts. Aftermarket who knows.
