di 2010 toner drive unit.

I need to replacr / rebuild the toner drive. IT would be nice to get a little direction as where I get the unit out of the machine. Rear or the side? thanks Ray

remove the back cover, finisher, all plates underneath the finisher and toner bottle holder. Unplug 2 connectors at the back and however many screws from front and back. There is a hook next to the fuser that you can hook the door cable onto when you remove the plate that spring is currently anchored to. Then angle the hopper drive unit from the front. First time will take some time, couple hours maybe. It gets easier after you've done a few.

Thanks I got her done. Plenty of covers screws to deal with but that has always been the deal with Minolta. Thanks For the tips they made all the difference

You're welcome. First one is intimidating, now it's just a time consumer.
