Olivetti d-Copia 3001MF to TASKalfa 300i

[kyove]

Hi folks,

I own a Olivetti d-Copia 3001MF but my company works with Kyocera brand.
Here on copytechnet I read about the possibility to switch from Olivetti to Kyocera with maintenance U265 and set code 02 for Kyocera.
It works and now the machine has the feeling of an original TASKalfa 300i. Wow!
The first problem I found is about the toner cardtrige. After changing code the original Olivetti toner was not recognized anymore and I have an advice on status page.
I install a new TK-685 Kyocera original. Cardtrige does not fit on machine so I found the difference between toners: there is a "pattern" on the bottom side of the cardtrige. Olivetti pattern match another pattern on machine composed by 4 hook. Removing 3 hook resolve the problem and the Kyocera toner fits!!
The status page show correct toner level and the advice is gone.

Now the question is about the other components, such as developer, drum or fuser. And maintenance kit?
Do I have to order Kyocera MK-671 or Olivetti MK?
Thank you in advance,
Carlo

You'll need the Kyocera maintenance kit. The only differences will be chipped items, like the drum and developing unit, and the chip is the only difference. =^..^=
