    hands down one of the most serviceable devices I have ever encountered. The fusers last for about 600K, the drums are typical 100K (if you scrub the charge rollers first 120K) - just an all around good machine if maintained properly - nice truck btw!

      Aye, these machines are pretty bulletproof. Make sure you change the oil supply roller, cleaning roller and ITB cleaning unit at 160k, the machine will pretty much look after itself. Occasional waste tank emptying, charge roller lines due to cold weather, but that's just the nature of the beast.
      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.

        Pretty good machines, i have had over 200k out of a black drum unit in the past. Pretty easy to service etc.

          Keep some toner pumps on hand.

          You never realize how cheap a professional is until after you let an amateur do it.
