    p6130 cyan toner keeps getting stuck in machine

    Hey all, I have a P6130 which was loaded with generic toners. When I went to replace some drums, it went fine. But after replacing the drums, I noticed the cyan toner was stuck in the machine. The locking lever on the right would move ok but you could not pull the toner out.

    I returned with an OEM toner, pried the cyan toner out forcibly, but the new toner would not go in. I removed the right side cover and high voltage board, and realigned the gears for the cyan drive. The new toner slid in at that point. However, when that toner ran out and the customer went to change it, it was stuck too. I'm sure I could realign the cyan toner drive gears but I assume it would just fail again. There are no missing or worn teeth on those gears, that I can see.

    I am at a loss, I have never delved into one of these this deeply before. The customer has a loaner now and their p6130 is sitting at my office. We have another p6130 here for parts but it is down with a laser motor code.

    Thanks for any help

      After stripping this down at my shop, I discovered one of the cyan drive gears (#519) is cracked.
      I grabbed one from another machine but they won't line up correctly to work the toner lock/unlock mechanism.
      I tried next to remove the whole assembly (#13) and replace it with one from another machine, but I can't get it out. There's no instructions in the service manual about removing the top cover, and kyocera tech support had no suggestions on removing the #13 part. I checked at KDA central service portal site and youtube but they don't seem to have anything on this specific issue.

      I'm having a hard time believing that I may have to scrap an entire machine because of one small cracked gear.

          I had to replace one to these a while back I think it was on the cyan toner. I was able to pull the #513 away from the metal frame enough to get the old one out by just removing the top cover. I did not completely remove the #513, but just moved it away from the frame enough to get the gear out. Make sure to time the gears right or the cartridge will not work as it should. Hope this helps.
