I can see a KM 500 that hasn't been serviced in two years and it's clean as a whistle.

Others constantly puke out toner and developer, getting all over clutches, T&S units and even into the cassettes.

I know the soft drum pads fall apart, I know recycled toner can back up in the IU and the blades aren't great.

But even after addressing these issues I still get crap all over.


Kinda like the 600-750 dumping.

Thoughts?

#1 cause is shit paper

incorrect setup will do it too.

it suffers in exactly the same manner as a b601/751.

I see a lot of misting on these.... but none pulling developer. And of course they did away with the T/S cleaner on these (not that anyone would use it)

Well every time i do pm on 400/421/500/501 I see toner build up on mylarian strip that protects developin roller.
I saw it on new machines whit 20 K so don't think its related whit how much copy it did. From there it goes evrywhere :)
Dont know why but someone suggested that on this forum that adjustment of "Toner density adjustment" should fix the problem. In my case it didn't help. Mybe in urs will.
