Ricoh 2060 and 2075 differences

[TECH BOY]

Hi all,
We recently started looking after a Ricoh 2060 and 2075.My question is what are the main differences as far as parts are concerned.Same fuser,drum, dev etc?Also anything that is a common problem with these?Are there common parts to keep in stock? Any feedback would be great.

Thanks,
Tech boy

everything is the same only dif. is the speed

[TECH BOY]

Thanks, but wouldn't the drive gears etc be different??

[msaeger]

Nope.

The speed difference is loaded onto the controller. Other than that everything is pretty much the same. The standard PM parts are your main things to keep onhand, try to keep up with the 300k cycle and pay close attention to the real seals and bearings on the dev unit after one million copies.

[TECH BOY]

thank you.I will keep this all in mind.

Make sure to keep an eye on the dev seals front and back, if the start dumping dev out replace seals immediately if the shafts are not to badly worn, if they are repl the whole unit. If the dev starts to dump it will eventually migrate down into the reg unit and then into the feed stations and will cause you a nightmare of a job to rip it all out and clean all the oneway bearing and gears. One thing that i have been successful in doing is finding a sheet of magnetic strips. Cut out a big enough piece to fit onto the reg unit at the back so the dev will still slide over top of it, that way if it does dump it will land and stick to the magnetic strip and not migrate downward. good luck

Thanks for the info.Other than the seals I have heard they are fairly good machines.I hope I don't have to babysit them....

Thanks,

You'll never have to babysit a Martini, they're an absolute tank. As mentioned, do the dev seals at a million, also do the reg mylars at the same time. They're a bitch for causing wierd jamming issues.

These are all good points I will keep in the back of my mind....what's left of it.
I would probably trade the Martini for a nice dark strong stout ( maybe a yeti ).
Thanks again for the help.

Tech boy.
