P-2040DN paper jam

Re: P-2040DN paper jam

I commend you for trying to remedy, but you're only putting a bandaid on it... Replace the fuser & that is expensive to do, but the customer will be happy and you won't have a recall. I'm surprised you didn't get a complaint for the oil smell? Fingers crossed it works for you

I have been using this method since the model was on the market. In this way I have made more than 100 printers and multifunctional using this fuser (FK-1150). That way you don't make repairs cheaper. You make it free. Once done, you can print up to 100,000 pages without any Fuser repair. Even if you change the section, after 20-30k the problem will reappear.
It has been tested not only by me, but also by many colleagues who work mainly with Kiocera.

Re: P-2040DN paper jam

Well I tried this trick... but the grease is like glue when fuser cools down and first prints were smushed...

I dissassembled once again, cleaned everything applied new fuser grease and added few drops fuser oil (silicon oil).
So far (few months) the costumer has not complained.

I am guessing that the oil pad from inside the fusing film restricts some of the heat produced by the heat lamp therefore causing paper jams? and once removed and new oil application, the heat will increase on fusing film surfaces?

Re: P-2040DN paper jam

Here you can see how to fix a common problem with Kyocera P2235dn, M2040dn etc. It's about the fuser fixing film and the oil application pad. Its very easy repair, and no new parts needed.

Hi did this repair the same way, used oklili fuser grease g300, 3000 pages same problem came back, can you recommend the correct grease to use as it maybe too sticky?

I don't trust these Chinese Fuser-Grease repros, I use HP #CK-0551-020 for that as the (more expensive) #HP300 Grase seems to be too sticky...
Works just fine, no complaints, no smell whatsoever, you can get that over at CET:

Nope, look how that film looks after ~50k pages:

I've also had repairs where the pad seemed to be okay, maybe there should relubricating the pad with fuser oil have done the job, but I've removed it anyways, better safe than sorry ;-)

The amount of disassembling and reassembling rules this out as a repair in most environments. There has to be an hour involved in that? Also removing the pad and lubing the plate underneath? No manufacturer puts something in a machine that doesn’t need to be there. Sorry, I’m not buying this as a viable fix.

It's there to lube the Fuser-Sleeve, but it's not reliable, a big Engineering fail, everyone at kyocera is aware of, but there seems to be no will to change or improve that pad, so the classic way with fuser grease (as done everywhere else, Brother, HP etc..) is the way to go!
