    Lanier LD 325 Cleaning blade problem (Didn't fit) Drum did...

    I ordered a drum cleaning blade kit (For the lanier) from a reputable company and the cleaning blade didn't fit. I figure it is possible that the previous service company used a Ricoh Aficio MP 2500 drum unit in this machine or the parts company sold me the wrong part. Is their any way to tell what kind of drum unit I have in this machine so I can order the correct cleaning blade. Don't really want to order 2 cleaning blades because I am having to eat this...
    Thanks for your help...

    I would not think that a PCU from a MP2500 would fit into a MP2510 (lanier LD325), sorta not similar enough. You need a AD041114 blade, which is similar in size as the blade that fits a MP2500, but the screw holes don't line up.

      So the MP 2510 PCU won't fit the Lanier LD 325 (I Mistyped the MP 2500 #) Thinking that the PCU in the Lanier is the Richo version because the screw holes don't line up but I ordered the correct part #. At this point I am not sure which one to get.

        Lanier /Ricoh, doesn't matter.
        The machine could have one of 2 PCU types installed - Either the original (rebuildable style) MP2510/3010 version, or the Ricoh Type 1027 version that is completely compatible, and many of us use as a matter of convenience, but it's not especially suited for rebuilding (P/N 411018). Either way, the drum and cleaning blade are the same for either, so I would suggest that the kit must have either included the wrong blade, OR you ordered an MP2000/2500 kit, where the Drum would be the same but the blade different (as is the entire unit).
        My head hurts now
