    Re: ES 7516AC error C471

    One of the Toshiba techs I use to chit-chat with on the TABS bulletin board, until they trashed it at the first of the year,
    gave me the name of a company they've been using for oil. The TABS oil always dries out.
    Shin-Etsu Silicone : Fluids
    I don't remember the part number, but I can get it if needed.
    I've been using it for the past couple months with good success. I'm also doubling the amount, that Toshiba usually uses.

    One thing we've been doing, with all of the dried out fusers, is to force the super sleep mode. Most of our 85 series machines
    are in schools. They sit idle most of the time, so, to make sure they don't run all night, we set the super power saver to four
    hours in the 08 codes (you can only set them to 60 minutes in admin mode) 08-9112 to 21.
    If the machine sits for 4 hours, it goes to sleep, cutting the standby heating of the machine. Most of these machines they
    use as printers anyway, so by the time they send the print job, go to the teachers room where the machines usually are, it
    has already come out of sleep and printed the job anyway. Haven't had any complaints.
    Most of our dried out fusers were late summer/early last fall. With all of the schools shut down, most of the oil just evaporated
    I guess. That or the machines weren't powered off during the shutdown and just sat there running.

    Phil: these film fusers use a thick silicone based oil (in this case OIL-965-100). We have seen cases of the inside of the sleeve drying out, taking out the fuser drive gears. That's why barber mentions using the oil generously.

    I suspect power. =^..^=

    Fan speed and thermistor changes seem to be working?

    Mixture of firmware update and changing the thermistor and new holder etc. Never heard back after that. Also new type of oil we've been using.

    A lot of the failed fusers (ripped up belts) we were seeing I think was out of habit. Most of our 85xx machines are in schools. Teachers HATE the energy saver/super sleep. We would leave the energy saver at 60 and disable super sleep. I think the supplied oil (which isn't enough) was evaporating out & the friction was just tearing them up. Since I switched to the Shin-Etu oil, and doubling the amount used, I haven't seen any dry/ripped up belts. We are still having some issues with fuses blowing & belts "melting", mostly on the non operator side of the belt. But, I think a lot of that is from the weak/failed core belt holder. Some would come back with what looks like a hot spot on one side or the other. Now that the supply chain is starting to catch up, maybe the combo of the new oil & new belt holder with the fan speed & fuser temperature settings mentioned here will start to knock down the service calls.
    The amount of calls we've had on this series of machines is NOT making them profitable.

    This issue was resolved in firmware version 1500 or higher that modifies some 08 codes related to temperature values, it was found due to variation in tolerance of the IH shield caused temperature to go out of the intended range.

    There was also a BSI which I don't recall exactly that gave the values to change manually in earlier firmware versions.
    No, I will not send you Manuals, Software or your own little repair Genie to fix all your problems for you.

    Toshiba fusers are garbage and especially the thermistors. It has nothing to do with any cut off thermostat or its harness/housing. Try replacing the thermistors. You cant clean them or you will ruin them.

    Since the release of TSB-2078 Rev.02, which changed the tension of the fuser belt holder, and increased the
    diameter of the mounting studs, our 471's have pretty much dropped. I started updating these around the
    first of December.
    When I rebuild them, I use a Sharpie to write the parts replaced and the date, along which type of lubrication
    oil (stock or Shin-Etzu) and the quantity. I've cut back on the oil and now use the stock amount of either
    Shin-Etzu or supplied oil (stock or Shin-Etzu). I have yet to have any of the fusers with the updated cores
    come back, so they've been in the field for around 5 months, which is a RECORD! Between the updates and
    the 1600 and above firmware, which changed the fuser temperatures, our problems are pretty much gone.
    (knock on wood).

    I've had no C471 errors on the updated cores, but I've seen 2 belts fail prematurely. one at about 400k, and one at 150k. I did just discover the toner build up on the top plate just before i saw the post here about it, so I believe with the increased pressure, a little extra care with the paper guides is advised.
