Ok, Ok, Here we go! I have a couple Mp3352,s out in the world that are not fusing the toner only on the first 2-3 pages when they start using the machine after awhile...I have changed out the Fuser Units and Drum Units several times and no change...I'm pretty sure there is a setting that will correct this (Fuser Idle Temp) ??? Its just strange to me why on just a couple of these when I probably have over 30 of these units out there ??? Actually, this is the first time I have seen this issue, where it will do it only when it starts up... Anything you have will be MUCH appreciated ! Thanks! Laser801

Re: MP3352 Not Fusing 1st few Pages
Yup.
Turn on Fuser Idling.
SP1103-1 (Set to "1")
I've only ever had to do it in a handful of locations myself, but it's almost always been in a place that's a little cool.
I think it can also be caused by some types of generic heat rollers where the metal is a bit thicker, and possibly even if you're using a 3351 Hot roller in the machine vs. the 3352 which actually is a little thinner I believe (?) -
Re: MP3352 Not Fusing 1st few Pages
Running aftermarket toner is a good cause for this too.It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.
Hit it.Comment

Thanks for your reply... I'm heading there now to give it a go... That unit is in a damp basement so what you're saying could be right on.Comment

Re: MP3352 Not Fusing 1st few Pages
We are running a good quality aftermarket toner... I have many of these units out there running on the same toner... Hopefully this 1103 setting will help. Thanks so much for your reply!Comment

Re: MP3352 Not Fusing 1st few Pages
Thanks for your reply... I will take that into consideration... I did put a fully rebuilt fuser in. Paper could be an issue. Machine is in a damp basement as well...Comment

Re: MP3352 Not Fusing 1st few Pages
feel if it can be useful to you, I remembered that once on mp2000, I had the exact same problem, a worker was doing some work on the sign outside with a big drill, not the usual ones we have in the garage, it was monstrous, and when he drilled, the fuser unit was leaking power, and the image dont are fixed, only in those moment
then check the power outlet .... and while you're at it bring a power board, maybe that has the triac that hesitate when cold (?)"loneliness is an invention of the white man, when we are alone we talk to everything around us, we are never alone" (Ojibwa)Comment

Re: MP3352 Not Fusing 1st few Pages
Also, 1 more thing
Your toner needs to be of good quality.
Poor toner can have a bad melting point and cause the problem you having.
Perhaps it's a bad batch of toners? We use alot of high quality generic toner at our office. Last year a really good brand had a bad batch. That cost us thousands and lots of downtime...
All I'm saying is sometimes even the good toners go bad
All the best friendComment

There is only one quality aftermarket toner/developer that I have ever encountered and it is just as expensive as Ricoh's.Comment
