    Savin C2525

    Have a C2525, paper jams at the Fusing Unit. Was told I needed a new FU. Why not the Fusing tractor? Help please.

    Huh? Jamming in fuser, replace or rebuild the fuser. What is a fusing tractor?

      Unless you have some damage, that fuser should go 160k. But like the man said, what is a fuser tractor?

        Bottom line...

        paper jams, msg state allow cooling of the fuser unit. The path is clear of any debris. I am not a copier tech, wanting to buy this machine but if it IS the 600 dollar FU I need to know.

            I never heard of a message to allow "cooling" of fuser unit, unless it's in the jam clearing tutorial on the display.
            • When you get a jam, what is the jam code displayed on the screen (along the top banner - J0x) and what areas are lit on the copier diagram (A,B or C).
            • Where exactly is the lead edge of the jammed paper at (before it enters the fuser, in the middle of the fuser or after it exits)? Is the paper accordioned or just stopped?
            • Does it jam from all of the drawers and or different paper sizes?
            • What is the total meter (color and b\w).

              That is why i am here. Have been a computer tech 20 military/13 civilian. I have never just walk in, open a case and determine the issue with out my meters etc. This individual is not a Savin tech. We are located in an area that it is not economical to local Savin dealer.

                Thank you all! I have all the manuals, service, operators et al. I was able to work it today the issue is the fusing unit apparently get too hot and the paper jams. Works great if cold to warm, but more than 100 copies at a time starts the jam. 240k on the fuser, so maybe time to replace.

                  Yeah, maybe.
                  Savin, Ricoh, Lanier, sameo,sameo. This is a nice copier, dont screw it up by doing your own maintenance.

                      Mmm.... no. I'm more willing to bet the oil supply roller will be dry as a camel's nads. The fuser's on these last well over 160k as long as the OSR is changed regularly, usually around the 120-180k mark depending on what the customer's doing. Part numbers are AE04 0066 and AE04 0069 - replace them as a set. Unless of course the pressure roller's disintegrated or the belt's got a rip in it.
                      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.

                        I'm guessing he's not mechanically inclined.

                          I wouldn't say that, he's just not trained on our equipment. Kinda like me asking my dentist what I need to do my own root canal.

                            Again thank you all. I am a 100% disabled vet. I owned a very profitable ink biz and my health kept me out of the store. I GAVE my biz to an old friend who helped me for 14 months the business. This copier is awesome for us but we are truely out in the country. Folks travel 50 miles to come to our store just for ink. I know ink and PCs. I understand the electrical/static discharge possible if the proper euipment is not used. I know the conductive properties of the toner powder etc.... What I do not know is trouble shooting on this machine and so here I am, among experts. I am successful due to those I surround myself with.
