How do you reset maintenance count on a dell 3130?

You don't. You can't.

When you install a replacement Transfer belt (it has it's own counter chip) that resets the transfer belt pagecount, and as a result clears any transfer belt life related warnings/errors.

When you install a REPLACEMENT Fuser (that has it's own counter chip) that resets the fuser pagecount, and as a result clears any fuser life related warnings/errors.

PLEASE NOTE - The fuser supplied with the DELL 3130 when new DOES NOPT have a counter chip - the fuser life warnigs are triggered by the printer pagecount. Installing a fuser from another printer (even if it has a ZERO pagecount WILL NOT reset the fuser pagecount (because the 'ship with' fuser has no counter chip.

All three lights blink rapidly. The computer says it cannot communicate with the printer. When I plug the USB into the computer the computer doesn't acknowledge that anything was plugged in. If I...

It sounds like your main board (the brains) in the printer is fried (I got the same problem with mine). That part (when purchased new) costs so much, your better off just getting a new printer, and it's not your typical user serviceable part (hard to remove, many wire/plugs going to/from it).

The problem with replacing it with a used part, is that the used circuit board will still have the consumable counters in it set to old values from the printer is was pulled from, and NEW or RE-Chipped consumables will be needed to reset those back to zero again (not just the toners, but also the photo drums, fuser, and transfer belt). So, if the used board was connected to "old" consumables (nearly depleted), you won't be getting too many prints before it's asking for either new toners, photo drums, fuser, or transfer belt. The fuser and transfer belt cost upwards of $175 or more each....

How it works is like this, according to Okidata's Tech support guys. When you put a new "consumable" (toner, photo drum, fuser, transfer belt) into the printer, that main board resets the counters AND THEN it immediately blows a fuse (not a regular fuse, but a microchip fuse) in that comsumable so it can never reset the counter for that consumable again. When that consumable's counter reaches it's predetermined number of prints, the printer refuses to print until it is replaced (or it is "re-chipped" with a new fuse).

They make toner refill cartridge chips, and I think even a photo drum kit (seen it on Ebay). But I haven't found anything that would rest the fuser or tranfer belt. Let me know if you find something to reset the fuser or transfer belt.

Can you reset fuser counter without replacing the fuser on a C352 bizhub?

You can. You have to remove the fuser, and replace the counter reset fuse that is soldered into the wiring harness, then re-install the fuser. 10 minute job but not a one I would recommend unless you know the machine pretty well. Depending on your location and service options I would try to find a local independant repair person who can do this for you. I reset 20 to 30 of these fusers per year. Note you can also reset your transfer belt unit as well as your Imaging Units as well.
Good Luck and Thank You for using Fixya.

I have a konica Minolta bizhub C250 and the screen is reading "replace transfer unit" and "replace fusing unit". I contacted a local repair guy that said he might be able to reset the counters and the...

I can only tell you they are definately resettable as I do it all the time.
The fuser "fuse" is located in the connector wiring. Once you get the fuser out just look in the area where the large connector is. It is a very small fuse similar to a resistor, green, and is encased in shrink wrap.
The Transfer belt fuse is behind a small black cover. If you pull the transfer belt unit out of the machine about 6 inches, it is located on the front right corner. In other words standing in front of the copier with the belt unit partially out it is on the corner closest to you. You have to remove a screw, a c-clip, a small metal plate and the small black cover is held on with a very small phillips screw.
