Utility/counter, details, stop 00 stop 01, function F8 was developer replaced before you do this WAS THE DEVELOPER COUNTER RESET before you put the new developer in. The machine runs on the counters if you did not reset the machine will think the developer is old when in fact it is new and will cause image issues and codes
IS the drum cleaning blade and developer been replaced. Counters are to be cleared before replacing the drum and developer, because the machine use the counter to determine voltages to certain assemblies. If you reset the counter and have not replaced the parts then the machine will think the parts are new when fact they are not and cause image problems and codes. Was the F8 run after new developer was replaced. DO not allow any printing or copying until that is done, or you will have to replace the developer again.
Do not reset drum counter unless the drum has been replaced.. IF not then the copier thinks the new drum and new developer are old. The copier works on the counters that is how it knows it got a new drum and developer. Get new developer and a new drum and have it installed correctly. Counters are clear before the unit is yanked out of the machine, then you remove the image unit/drum unit replace the developer/drum and cleaning blade. (DO NOT USE A VACUUM CLEANER WHEN REPLACING THE DEVELOPER static electricity can destroy the sensor located below the developer unit. Then reinstall and RUN F8. Make sure the fax line and Ethernet cable is removed can't print anything until the F8 is run. Or you will start all over again with new developer and a new drum.
Utility counter, details stop00 stop01. Counters. Has the drum been replaced? if not you reset the counter the machine will assume that a new drum is install and select the proper voltages for a new drum since the drum is not new? it might code and get poor image quality issues. Replace the developer with the drum. Machine uses the counters to determine setting in the machine, developer also has a counter. Does the front panel say replace PC drum? If so replace developer and drum and cleaning blade at the same time. You clear counters before pulling out the image unit. and you don't exit all the way out of service mode after clearing the counters you hit exit once the turn off main power, Rear left side. Once new drum and developer installed. RUN F8. Do not allow copies Prints or fax until F8 is run. Or start all over again.
Has the developer been replaced? If not reset code for developer without replacing the developer is not good. Because the copier works based on the counters. If you reset the counter with out replacing the require item the copier will adjust certain voltages to certain items such as the drum and developer system as those there are new because you reset the counters when in fact he developer is old and so mite be the drum which can cause codes and image problems. If the developer was replaced where the counters cleared and was the required F8 checked run?
Have the developer replaced. if you have had the developer replaced and that person used a vacuum cleaner to remove the old developer then the static electricity from the vacuum cleaner destroyed the sensor underneath the image unit. Worse case the main board that sensor feeds is bad now. Go with replacing the developer again first. Then worry about the sensor or the main board. Was the counter reset when the developer was replaced, was the F8 process done after the developer was replaced.. If not then get new developer have the process done correctly, the machine works on what the counters have in them if you replace the developer and don't clear the counters the machine will assume the that old developer is in the machine and adjust the voltages to certain units accordingly when in fact new developer and for that matter the drum also works on that system. is installed causing image problems and codes.
Need to have the drum and developer and cleaning blade replaced, then have that M2 counter reset. Resetting the counter with out replacing the drum developer and cleaning blade will cause codes and image problems. Machine uses the counters to determine voltages for certain assy. If you clear the counter and not replace the parts the machine adjust voltages for the drum and developer assuming it new when in reality it is old.
You can not just reset the drum counter. When you reset the counter then the ATDC reference value is also reset. This will throw off the developer to toner ratio and your copies will usually become light or overtoned. The developer is supposed to be replaced at the same time the drum is replaced. The drum count is then reset and the F8 function in the service mode is run to calibrate the new developer. If you do not perform this procedure in the right order and correctly you will end up with at best poor copy quality. I would recommend calling a service person out to change the developer and then reset the counter and do the F8 procedure.
Good Luck and Thank You for using Fixya.
Has the developer been replaced? If not reset counter for developer without replacing the developer is not good. Because the copier works based on the counters. If you reset the counters without replacing the require items then the copier will adjust certain voltages to certain items such as the drum and developer system as those they are new because you reset the counters when in fact he developer is old and so might be the drum which can cause codes and image problems. If the developer was replaced where the counters cleared !ST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and was the required F8 checked run? after installing. Also was the drum removed and the sensors cleaned by brush NO Vacuum cleaner. Static Electricty can destroy the the sensors.
