Waste Motor Error message on Samsung CLP-500

The fuser rollers (large orange rubber rollers visible with top cover open) are getting too hot, or the temperature sensor/wiring is faulty and misreading the temperature. Assuming sensor is okay, check the exhaust fan is running and expelling warm air as over time it will clog with dust and the fuser unit won't be cooled effectively.

The wate motor transfers (you guess it) waste toner to the waste toner bottle. If the bottle fills up, the motor cannot transfer more waste to it. This is rare, for the printer should ask for a new waste toner bottle when the previous one fills. However,it happens frequently when users try to empty and clean the bottle instead of replacing it.

Dr. P,
Printer will display "Waste Toner Tank Full/Not Installed" error message if the waste tank is full of toner or not installed.

• Open the waste tank door and check for the waste toner tank.
• If the tank is full or not intalled, install a new tank.

If you have user guide, it will show you how to install the waste toner tank.

Sometimes you will also get this error message if the Waste Toner sensor is covered with toner powders.

1. Remove your waste tank and look for the black plastic on the right side after removing the waste tank.
2. You sould find small openings on each side in the black casing.
3. Use Q-tips or thin cotton object to clean the inside the small opening.

You need to enter the hidden engineer menu: turn the printer off then turn on again whilst holding down the enter key on the control panel. It should say something like EDC menu on the display and you can scroll through several menus to find the one about resetting counters. Be careful not to play with other options as you can screw the printer up if you don't know what you're doing!

GO ON LINE TYPE IN MANUFACTURE NAME,MODEL#, ERROR MESSAGE AND ENTER KEY LIKE THIS:

Probably a bad connection between the transfer belt contacts and those inside the machine - clean any dirt/toner off them and make sure they aren't bent out of position and try again.

remove the waste container..front of the printer.
remove the casing..lower area, you will see a wee motor.
more than likely, use a vacuum to unclog the waste auger.

the transfer belt maybe defective or run its course..end of life
go into the menu, and see what the setup tells you

I'm stepping out on a limb, but I bet it will be the Main Motor. samsungparts.com

If a new waste toner bottle is in place, then the printer needs a new motor, which can only be purchased through an Authorized Service Center.
