    5000i/5020i

    Hi, I recently saw the new 5000i/5020i
    What do you think? It looks like they have wireless and shouldn't cost much.
    Moreover, apparently the maintenance seems easier.

    Search for them on MPlus, there is product tech training on those I did. You will learn something.
    1 hint - they are Brother to the bone.
    A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.

    Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

    yes, it's born from Brother, I guess it will be better than the Lexmark-oriented models.

    I have a new 5020i printed 8K pages, now some grey lines appeared on print out,
    checked the official life of imaging unit it can afford 50K, so consider the drum can work longer.

    Check drum unit. There is a charge cleaneron top. Should similar to bizhub 20. On those I used to remove charge wires (with cleaner) from top of drum unit vacuum it and lines were gone.
    Drum unit lasted 2-3 times more than declared. 8k is little bit early for problems but you never know what can go inside.

    8k is nothing still probably on starter toner. Have them to move few times green tab of wire charger cleaner. Make sure there's no stuck debris in drum unit especially between charge wire and drum surface.
