noise from fusing on MPC3500 in standby

[largo]

hi

when the machine is in standby
the fusing start running for some seconds with a clicking noise

is there a solution for this?

don't tell me to put off the main switch

That noise is more than likely the fuser idling i.e. it stops the fuser rollers from getting a flat spot by turning them every so often.

Have you not had this on other machines, are you a end user or toner monkey

I am a techn
some machines do it and others dont

or is this a setting you can set off?

Thanks anyway

Make sure the oil supply roller isn't worn out, that can cause clicky fusers.

Sorry had to ask if you were a tech - to many end users on here asking and dont understand the reply when you say simple things that techs understand

I dont think you can turn it off only extend it in sp 1103 and i wouldn't turn it off anyway, as i said it stops flat spots on the fuser. Have a check what toner munkey said with the oil suply roller as i've had one stick to the roller and it makes some funny sounds.

SP1-115-002) every 60 minutes (adjustable with SP SP1-115-001).
