      Clean the laser unit and the lower panes of the lane (glass display area) you could send a photo. regards

        152,xxx forgot, I've forgot to printout, tomorrow i'll post it here.

        yes I've cleaned all inside PCU, tried other ORIG Drum & Developer from other same model, also tried generic drum and developer, and STILL SAME PROBLEM.

        maybe 1.5" at LEFT SIDE and also at the RIGHT Side are VERY VERY LIGHT but at the CENTER, its CLEAR and NO PROBLEM.

          I think its not the LASER or the GLASS DIPLAY, coz, I've try to interchange the WHOLE PCU from other same model, and there's no problem but the other one that I've told earlier still same problem from other unit.

              How can you say that it is not the laser? The laser stays inside the machine when you swop the pcu.

              If I understand you correctly - you tested the pcu in another machine of the same model? Result?

              If the pcu works fine in another machine = dirty laser shield glass.

              You remove the front door off the machine and then the brown cover behind it. Then you will see a glass (about 1/2" tall) that sits around the middle of the machine at a slight angle.

              Pull it straight out and clean it - reinstall in reverse order, and test. You will be amazed.

              In the previous range (MP2000) you could remove a small cover below the toner hopper handle, and remove the glass easily for service purposes.
              In the 2001/2501 they scrapped that idea and hid it behind the brown cover.
              Press the GREEN button!!

                NO, still problem exist, but the other PCU works FINE on SAME machine that has problem on other PCU.

                i'll try to look that BROWN COVER tomorrow, tnx for the info.

                    just clean the laser shield glass, what have you got to lose. especially since that should have been your first step.

                      Dusty environment? You may have dust collecting on the polygon mirror and other optical components inside. These laser units are not well sealed from the environment.

                        Check the transfer roller that at its position or not

                          Make sure you are using Ricoh OEM drum # B039-9510. The generic drums I have tried when rebuilding MP 2000's, etc, do not work in this system.

                              it's all original parts, and I've tried already OEM/GENERIC but it's same problem that's why I've put again the ORIG. parts.



                              today, i'll try again what was other mentioned here that I did not do.
