    Where is the developer bottle On Tosiba 3220

    I have a Toshiba 3220 copier that I am trying to hold on to. The copies are printing, but you can blow the toner right off the paper. I did some research on the internet and found that it may be out of developer. I have tried to find the developer bottle to see if its empty but cant find it. If someone has a manual for this model it will be great! Any suggestions?

    The developer bottle is most likely still in the developer kit which you probably haven't bought.

    The developer unit is attached to the PCU, if I remember correctly.

    Having said that, your dev is fine, ya fuser has probably had it.

      I agree, unless the toner that is blowing off the pages feels gritty (dumped developer) you are looking at a fixing issue.

        No it is not gritty, is just smooth toner that you can acutally blow right off the paper. I dont know what a fixing issue is, but I am looking at replacing the fuser. Do I need a fuser unit assembly, a heat lamp or a bulb. What should I be looking for?

            You probably have a White tab missing from the fuser assembly.this applied pressure to the fuser rollers.this is a very old machine analog I think,maybe time for an upgrade
