    Mpc5501 black toner detection

    Ok, replaced pump, toner detection rfid board, pump hose and cartridge. Worked fine for an hour or so and again now says “no toner, black” . I can watch toner bottle spin, I can run add toner in sp mode and I can shut of sp3045 to make it print , but then when I turn detection back on it says to add a new cartridge. Vt display on sp3201 shows about 4.52 and can’t seem to get it to go lower.

    any thoughts?

    When you replaced the pump and hose were they a new pump and hose assembly from Ricoh or did you take them from another machine?Did you get a kink in the hose when installing it? You may also need to replace the toner nozzle at the back end of the toner cartridge tray.

    When I went back and pulled everything apart again indeed the hose was kinked behind the wire assembly going to the pump that I had noticed
    Nice call
