Xerox phaser 6180 not printing black but grey in stead

SOURCE: XEROX PHASER 6180 LASER ERROR

That is a laser fault. You should have a 1 year warranty from Xerox on that product. Call 1-800-835-6100 have your serial number ready.

Hi,

Try the link below. If the toner is leaking from the cartridge return it to shop were you got it if it is damaged.

I have had to repair a few of these. Take off the sides and back of the 6360. You'll see the hoses that feed into the laser. The black one becomes unplugged from the laser. All you have to do is plug it back in. The next step can be kinda messy. Take out the black toner cartridge, and spin the motor backwards. You'll know you're going the right way because it won't turn the other way. Cycle the gear where the toner sits for about 2 revolutions. Reassemble and you should be good to go!

This thing took me 6 days to figure out the first time. Haha!

Please vote on my solution! Thanks!

SOURCE: what's wrong when my phaser 6360 prints grey

I had this, had to call service engineer who re-fitted a loose circuit board inside printer. Not sure which one because I was not here at the time. If you are confident enough, and want to look for this yourself and push in all boards - be sure to disconnect from electricity supply first.

SOURCE: Xerox Phaser 6180 MFP-D password

The default password is "00000" If this password does not work you can follow the following to reset it:

1. Power OFF the machine using the power switch located on the right side of the machine, toward the back. Press the power switch to the (O) position.
   
   
2. Press and hold the [OK] button on the Control Panel.
3. Continue to hold the [OK] button and power ON the machine. Keep the [OK] button held down until the Ready screen is displayed. The password is now reset to the default Control Panel password, which is 00000.
   
   NOTE: There will be no confirmation message during or after the machine's power on sequence. However, if the procedure was performed correctly, the password has been reset.
