    [Misc] MPC3503, 4503, 5503 Transfer Unit: Printer Equivalent?

    Anyone know if there is a Printer Equivalent for the Transfer Unit for the '03s?
    Cheers

    Why would you want to replace the entire unit when usually its just the belt that rips or the cleaning unit gets blocked?

      I read the question as to whether the unit will work in the MPC4503, not if he should replace it or not.

        I read the question as "is there a printer whose transfer unit can be used in the CXX03 models". Do they mean the PTR or the ITB?

          We get charged more for just the belt than for the entire printer version of the c5000 - c5502 Transfer unit.

            I think we used the D039* transfer belts for most of the units up to the 4502/5502s but i was thinking the 03's had a little different one. I think a lot of guys used that printer version with the blue handles for the same models.

              The '03s are completely different!, Cleaning unit is on the top! I guess the answer is no then!?

                03 generation are SRA3 capable so the drums, transfer etc are 'longer'

                    Just adding to this...
                    The 03 Transfer Belt has done away with the rubber rib so the belt from other models isn't suited for the 03 series.
                    When we've had issues we've been swapping out the entire ITB assy ...completely oblivious that we should just be ordering the belt itself
