Dont normally rebuild these units, But for the newer style Dsm 730 etc it is type 28 same as the Dsm 615 model

[Screw Turner]

Use the Type 28, it's the right amount of developer.

Type 18 dev can use for af270

[TonerMunkeh]

Don't expect them to last much above 40-70k after the rebuild. They do chew up their auger drive gears quite quickly after being rebuilt.

hey whats up? you can use type 18 or type 28,,also half packet of type 24 you can use it. good luck

[cbrady]

you can get the gears from katun, or precision roller.
type 28 is pre measured, type 18 is for a 1045 whiter can be used but it must be measured
or weighed correctly, not a 24

[cbrady]

type 18 1045
type 19 270, 1018 same drum too but different cleaning blade
type 28 2022, 3030 3025 ect
type 24 i think is for 2060

yeah lh! you have to measure the weigh , not simply putting the developer,,type 28 can use in all 2000 series,,and 3350 type 19 can use

Hi
I rebuild these all the time type 18 or 19 will work I would replace the gears, clean the charge roller
and apply a thin coat of ne finish polish this will help stop the thin lines from coming back. if you rebuild them more then 2 times you will start having problem with them.

Ricoh tried rebuilding them for a while and they didn't last for anything. The newer machines are the same design with an extra screw so you can take it apart easier, but as already noted they don't last either. We used to be able to get the type1027 new for less than the parts to rebuild one, but that was too easy and Ricoh put a stop to it.
