http://printer.konicaminolta.com/support/current_printers/mc2430dl_sup.htm#Printer_Specific_Documentation The user guide should be helpful to you to pinpoint what is causing the noise. Sounds like the belt drive or gears may be having a problem. Let me know what happens. Tim

Replacing the fuse is only half the job. You also need to empty all the spent toner out of the drum as well. I actually drilled a 1/4 inch hole, poured out all the purple toner, and covered the hole with an old 5 1/4 floppy write protect tab. Any good piece of heat resistant tape should do. Then replace the fuse. Make sure that the contacts the fuse rests on are clean as well.

Toner problems with Konica Minolta 2450

very annoying message i agree - most likely caused by toner dust.

The printer uses a carousel to rotate the toner cartridges. Dust and toner can easily spill as the cartridges rotate. The error can appear at any time but seems to be most annoying after a paper jam or other error. It is also important to make sure that the cartridges themselves are clear of toner dust. Pay particulair attention to any copper contacts on the cartridge.

make sure your cartridge is not stuck and pushed in all the way in printer. If it gets struck it will dump ink out and waste it.

Have a Magicolor 2430 DL. Getting message "drum low". Does this mean I have to replace the imaging drum or something else?

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.

OPC Drum

OPC is organic photo conductor. Not sure what that means but apparently we need it to be able to print stuff. Yours has run out and you need to buy a new one. Should be about £100 apparently. But I'm having trouble finding anywhere that sells them, most people just seem to sell toner cartridges. The part number is 1710591-001 if that helps. Unfortunately I haven't worked out how to fit it either. Sorry. Good luck! (I hate this printer...)

2 multi color lines loud vibration noise

If you have changed the OPC drum and cleaned the entire insides of the printer after taking out the toner cartidges and OPC drum.You need a tech to look at it. The fuser is probably messed up from loose toner.
