    Mpc4502 no toner magenta

    Ok, machine was having magenta toner issues, tried new cartridge with same result, then replaced toner pump. Immediately fixed, or so I thought. After replaced the pump it showed full toner and everything was fine with td levels and my test prints. Left and after about an hour the client called back that again magenta was out! Eh??

    any ideas? Maybe bad developer unit because toner pump wasn’t working? But if so why did it work fine for a little bit?

    PM count on unit? Is dev unit turning? Dev on roller? Is it calling for toner, did you change tube.

    Damaged contacts on the toner bottle detection board or the back end of the bottle. Usually caused by the user slamming the bottle in rather than sliding it in gently. Could also be a bad chip on the bottle.

    +1 to this. Seen lazy guys replace the pumps and not bother to install the tube that comes with the pump, only to have the same issue shortly thereafter.

    Re: Mpc4502 no toner magenta

    is it called a tube or a hose???????????
    I pull them out and the spring loaded piece and shoot air outside and as long as they are not torn or hard resuse them.,
    I hate swapping the danm yellow one as my fat hands dont fit and getting the danm connector back on always gives me
    fits..

    I’m one of the lazy guys, always just vacuum the hose, works every time.

    1. Remove old pump.
    2. Suck the hose from the toner hopper side (my sucker i rather long).
    3. Install new pump.

    Remember to close vertical cover on paper banks, got lot of theses...
    Please start you post with brand, model, problem.
