    BH-C-353, TB ruptured

    BH-C-353, TB ruptured and CYM drums destroyed. Any known reason why this can happen with less than 200K? There is a TB blade flip but I'm not sure if that happened before or after the calamity. See attached pics.

    What can cause a TB to become that much damaged?

    Re: BH-C-353, TB ruptured

    i have seen damaged transfer belts but nothing like this. the leftover toner means that the cleaning blade didnt work. maybe paper passed through it? i have seen more than 1 time, customer uses normal trays for labels and they got stuck on it. but i have no idea what caused the rupture.

      C353 transfer belts are only rated for 150k yield. That could have contributed to this failure.

        I've seen a few catastrophic failures on C554e but I attributed it to the huge volume of printing going through this particular machine. The blade was also flipped on mine, but I could not determine if it was a cause or an effect:

        If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
        1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
        2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
        3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
        4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
        5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

            If that bead on the inside of the belt goes...
            Caught one just in time.
            Had one a couple of days ago. But still why?
            Whatever

                  Allan, sorry pal, I don't know what "bead" you meant, thought you where joking or sipping too much of that fine South African wine. LOL

                  What bead can come loose?

                      I think allan means that 7mm wide plastic strip on the edge of the belt, and it's seamed at some point, the vulnerable spot. =^..^=

                        As to that bead, yes that is the strip which can come loose when the belt gets its wear in the nicer scenario it just wraps around a drum. In the bad scenario it goes anywhere.

                        How does the K - 1st transfer roller *(TR) on that belt looks like? Any damage on the bushings for any of the first TR's


                        What is the coverage of colour? Is the belt set to BW or Colour Priority?
                        .OK Google! ... will I need Berrocca this morning?
