I am unable to remove
I got someone else in the office to do it that wasn't as worried about "breaking" something!
Streaks & Smears after changing toner cartridge.
Remove all of your toners and clean them off. Replace each one and make sure they are well setted in the unit before going to the next one. Make sure the carosel turns smoothly and nothing is hanging up on the sides. Reboot the whole printer and let it settle for 5 mins before printing. toners come lose sometimes when you turn carosel around. Hope this helps you these printers are a ***** to deal with ,but when they are right there great.
Fragments of paper inthe fuser
The only way I was able to clear fragments of paper from the fuser was to remove the fuser it was then easy to remove the paper fragments. Before you do that you could try manually pushing a 5 inch strip of a manila folder up through the rollersl although that did not work for me.

Most all replaceable parts on MagiColor printers are literally scheduled to be replaced after a certain number of pages printed using them. Officially, this is to ensure print quality remains sufficient. Unofficially, it's just another way to **** money from your wallet.
That being said, there is likely a fuse somewhere on the OPC drum unit that, when replaced, will reset the page count for that unit. Once the page count is reset, the fuse is blown, and counting resumes.
Examine the unit for large, silver, metal contacts. The fuse will be underneath those (or very nearby). Either replace the fuse or temporarily short the contacts. If you short the contacts, turn the printer on, verify the printer "thinks" the drum unit has been replaced, turn back off, and remove the short circuit.
Manually changing the toner
You can open the machine and use a pen or screwdriver to press the carousel release. Then rotate the carousel to access the cartridge to be swapped.
The color images have vertical banding or
Good lunk attempting to follow solution #1, intended for an ink jet printer. LOL!
It seems like you are low on toner for one of the cartridges.
First, try taking out a color toner cartridge, hold it horizontally, and shake end-to-end. This loosens any possible clumps of toner and reactivates static charge between the particles. Repeat this for each color.
Second, print a color page with each toner color separate. For example, a line of cyan text, a line of yellow text, and a line of magenta text. This will help isolate which cartridge has the problem.
Third, check the toner level of each problem cartridge. There is a little clear window on the cartridge you can use for this purpose. Hold the cartridge vertically and tilt slowly toward the side with the window. If you pass a 45 degree angle before the toner appears in the window, it is nearing empty and must be replaced or refilled (yes, refilling is an option). Otherwise, there is likely a different problem, for which I only recommend replacing the cartridge.
Don't forget to empty the waste toner bottle (responsibly, of course). By the time you run low on toner in one of your cartridges, it will likely be nearing capacity.

PAPER FEED DOESNT WORK KONICA MINOLTA COLOR PRINTER
This happened to me one time after I pulled out a jammed paper the wrong way. I pulled it from the paper tray. Heard the sounds, it tried to grab the paper, but couldn't. It happened a long time ago, so I'm fuzzy on which part I tinkered with...but I recall that because I pulled the paper (backwards) from the tray, it flipped a lever/feeder/roller/thing and that 's why it wasn't grabbing the paper. If you look in the paper tray as the rollers go down to grab the paper, you'll see what's not working......sorry, lame solution.

Fatal Error 12H on Konica Minolta Magicolor 2430DL
This error (12H) pertains to the Laser Unit of the printer which is damaged and needs to be replaced. The Laser Unit is the heart of the printer, it's what transmits the image to be printed. You need to contact a service center and will run you about $200. I had this same problem with my printer and had to call Technical Support and they gave me the bad news
