    Sp c430dn black toner bottle not rotating

    Looks like the black toner bottle is not being rotated by motor. Other three seem to turn just fine. Although all colors are washed out. Is this a huge job does anyone know?

      What have you checked so far? Is it calling for toner, PM counts, output mode.

          Not asking for toner but when I cheat the door and do a manual add toner you can obviously see the block bottle struggle to turn

              Pump's gone.
              It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

              Hit it.

                  Ok so the pump rotates the toner bottle on this unit? Is this a big job? Client needs to know cost vs replacement of machine

                              Also if ONE pump goes we do all four as a set to future proof having to reattend and do the job again.

                                  First time you do one I'd say about an hour and a half.
                                  It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

                                      This model has a hopper & toner supply motor, this motor drives the bottle.

                                      All 4 motors are the same you could swap the motor to confirm before you order new?

                                          Although I have it already, it took a grand total of 5 seconds to find several (free) downloads for the SM, and another 5 for the PM.

                                          You're as resourceful as ever....

                                                      Totally agree. Glad I'm not the only one who see it. I hate not to help fellow tech but it's just over me in this case.
