Re: Kyocera fs-6525 adding toner

If I remember correctly all Kyocera's are mono-component so unlike the sharps and canons you dont have to add developer separately. The toner that comes with the machine has just enough to get it running and making a few copies. hope this helps ^^

Hello,
Please check the EPROM of the Engine PCB. I also faced the same problem with a brand new machine. I changed the EPROM of the engine PCB my problem is resolved.

Re: Kyocera fs-6525 adding toner

was totally off track on my earlier reply to this thread as i was referring to a colour model of another type. These machine do have a problem with engine brd and toner container issues. But since it is asking for toner, install one and if it still giving same message, contact kyocera and get parts or let them tell you what to order.
And they come with starter toner, with reduced capacity as to the normal rated capacity.

Re: Kyocera fs-6525 adding toner

IT Takes about 10-12 minutes for the toner installation on a new machine setup, so be patient.

1. Turn the main power switch on.
The machine automatically starts to feed toner in the developer unit.
Note: When the main power switch is turned on for the first time, it takes about ten minutes until
entering the state that can be copied.
2. The drive chain is disengaged when toner installation is completed.

Thank you Mr. biplabdas26185, I also had the same issue and taken a chance to replace the EEProm and it was a wonder. I am sorted without any change isn Serial number and total count of the machine.

The problem will most likely return. The issue is the cam gears which drive the augers in the toner cartridges. The "stick" in and thus do not deliver toner. There is a bulletin for this. You may be able to just lube them to get by.

Re: Kyocera fs-6525 adding toner

I know this is an old thread, but I came to a slightly different conclusion:

I was getting "Add Toner M" and "Add Toner K" after 3 or 4 pages. Several toner cartridges were tried. It comes and goes. Customer knows to bring up the Command Center to view toner levels.

If you take a look at the toner feed coupler cams, you'll see that the cyan cam stops at ~1:00 o'clock (engaged), but magenta and black remain at 11:00 o'clock (not engaged). You might also notice that this machine is just a little bit dusty. There's an opening in the top of the assembly allowing extra dirt down into the cam assys for M & K.

The way this works is that the gear in the back of the housing couples to the center coupler part, with a spring that presses it into toner cartridge drive coupler. When the top door is opened, the cam retracts the coupler so the toner cartridge can be installed. The dirt prevents the cam from turning freely. Even cleaned, the cams did not move freely enough, but a little Triflow made the difference. In retrospect, I might have stretched the springs a little.

Once re-assembled, when the top door is closed, the cams start at ~10:00 o'clock. But when the toner motor spins anti-clockwise the cams nudge their way over to ~1:00 o'clock, engaging the couplers.

Unfortunately, there's more to it:
During disassembly I noticed the container fan motor wasn't plugged in, mainly because it made a terrible racket. Somewhere along the way someone had unplugged the fan. The additional heat in the toner cartridge area partly fused the toner in the black cartridge.

Next visit I replaced the fan and took the toner cartridge out behind the building and beat the crap out of it. Then the toner flowed ...

i don't think that they are mono conpnent this machine , because i have found (not used) compatible developer for this machine.
I believe he must use an other new toner and if the problem remains to re install machine.
Also he can try to manually add some toner and to check if it works.

Much respect for your work on this difficult issue. Just wanted to point out I think this thread is about the FS-6525 that looks like this:
