And what have you checked, cleaned, and/ or replaced? Because with the minimal info you've provided, it sure sure sounds as simple as a pcu

"Lines on page from back"...I'd guess you have poor knowledge of English and this is how u described Lines on the back of papper.
If so then u need to check parts and assemblies that have contact with back side of papper,such as Transfer corona,Pressure roller,Rollers in duplex (I know,I know...but he didn't gave much info)

Problaby... Anyway how many page in bk/color have done? In sweden many old copiers (mpc 2000-5000) get lines when the temp went down to - degrees.

OK...I am sorry about the lack of info. Just as I was posting this I pressed "submit" without realizing my error. For the record:
-Although I am from New York my gasp of the english language better than most of New Yorkers. I do speak fluent Brooklyneze.
-I am a Senior field engineer. Mostly Kyocera. I have been a tech for 18 years!
-I have replaced the transfer belt cleaning assembly and cleaned the transfer roller.
-The lines are on the FRONT of the page.


Are the PCU rebuildable in the field or better to replace whole assembly?

Re: MPC 2550 and 3000 lines on page

Does it do when copying and printing, these machines are prone to getting lines, on colour copies, due to dust in the optics area, if the lines don't appear when printing, or when copying in mono then that will be the answer

Quite easy to do in the field. You can swap the PCU by separating from the dev unit, usually a couple of scews, an e-ring, a bushing and a connector to remove. If you are swapping K to colour you will need to remove a small pin from the connector or replace the new wiring loom with the old one (depending on the model).

And they also hate temperature changes, as soon as it gets cold a lot of OPCs need replacing.

I wonder if the new pcu is betther agains the cold temp? (D029-2256, and b224-2042) insted of (d029-225x and b223-2042)

The B2242042 now used in the C1 MPC3500 range is just the same as the C2 MPC3300 range and i have the same problems with both ranges so i can't see the new drum making any difference to the effect of cold temps at all.
