    TA 4550ci Can you shine fusing sleeve to make last longer with fuser sleeve oil

    I replaced a customers fuser (TA 4550ci) with brand new one because in the morning the fuser would put double images on the copies for the first 10 or so copies. The fixing sleeve has a dull image and was wondering if you could shine it up with sleeve grease. Here is why I ask... A few years ago I had the bright idea of rebuilding these fusers. I bought several sleeves that included fuser oil in a tube. (I since abandoned the rebuild idea) but am curious what the tube of oil was for and thinking that this may be it... To shine fusing sleeves so the image would leave the sleeve easier. Any thoughts on this ? Thanks so much !!!

    If you've got a weird fusing issue, you might take a look at the power coming in. I struggled with a KM-3051ci with a strangely intermittent fusing issue. After changing the fuser twice, the IH coil, and the IH board, eventually I followed the power cord under a cube wall to a 800W UPS, which then ran under another cube wall to another 800W UPS, which then plugged into a floor outlet. When the UPS's were removed the issue never re-occurred. =^..^=
    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.
