RA5900 Black Drum Leaking - Need Help

[Guest]

Hello Friends,

I have a RA5900 Drum in black that has been leaking since I bought it. It came with the machine, it was the one that was inside when I bought it. It leaks when I leave it in the machine (which I never do anymore after cleaning the mess) and also when I store it in a case.

Does anyone know what this could be ? How to fix it ?

It would be so great to not have to buy an new drum. Best,

Albert

Not enough information yet to give you timely advice, but just for grins if you aren't using actual Riso ink you probably will encounter this for as long as you posses the machine.
Or, if the ink you are trying to use is more than a couple of years old, the pigment and the carrier fluid have probably separated.
Anyway, this was just for fun. Hopefully you can give us more information so we can actually give you good advice.
