[banginbishop]

Re: mpc4501 drum conversion

The MPC2500 black drum is the same as the Color drum except for the connector on the rear.

To modify the MPC2800 Black drum to fit the color slot just cut away the small pin on the connector block and swap the 2 wires round nearest the gear on the connector that plugs into the dev units.

But the MPC2500 BLK drum as the wires in the same place as the 2800 series color you just need to cut out the pin on the rear connector.

Re: mpc4501 drum conversion

Would be awesome if you figure this out.

Do you know about the spc811 and 820 fusers fitting the mpc4500 and 5000s with changing the positions of the 2 pink wires on the connector plug?

Re: mpc4501 drum conversion

I know the answer to this.

Buy some very strong cutters and cut the pin on the rear of the machine out so that it's flush with the top of the PCU's guide rail.

That's what we've been doing anyway. Obviously Ricoh would take a dim view if they saw it!

The same solution can be used on the new MP C5502 range.
