Samsung clp 315w printer imaging unit won't pull out

See page 103 of http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201112/20111205134621713/EN/English.pdf. It looks like the clx6220 uses a transfer belt to transfer all the different toner powders to the paper.

The transfer belt unit is refered to also as the image unit !
Also each toner cartridge contains the OPC drum and is replaced when you replace a toner cartridge by the look of it.
You need a transfer belt to transfer the image to the paper and this is why they call it an image unit.
I am guessing that the transfer belt needs replacement !

There is photo-optic detector, clean two side emitor and receiver.

Finaly got it.
Pull out the four toner cartridges and also the drum unit , staying in front of the printer , on the right side of the drum unit, you will find a small box with two contacts.
You need to solder a 63ma ( worked for me) fuse in paralel with two rezistors that it contains. It is hold by a small klipp - it is easy to get it out. You also need to empty the waste toner behind the opc , drum or watever you call it . Restart the printer after putting alltogether.
The second solution is to buy a new one but its price talk for itself - close to a new printer :-)

Good luck.

To remove the imaging unit, you open the front panel. You will see the imaging unit, it contains the toner cartridge and waste toner tank. Pull on the green handle on the bottom to remove it. To clean the developer follow this link http://www.fixya.com/support/r4120906-clean_developer_blades_samsung_clp_300 Hope this helps you.

Here's something you can try. There was a model of Samsung color laser that had an issue with the cleaning blades in the toner cartridge or toner transfer roller assemblies.

There are two types. I believe yours uses a "classic" toner cartridge (rectangular with a toner transfer roller on one side and a metal plate almost touching the toner transfer roller).

The metal plate can be removed and the edges cleaned. When you remove it, inspect the edges. One edge is used to clean the excess toner from the roller as it turns. Very gently clean the edges with a soft cloth and some windex or alcohol. Reassemble and test.

The other type uses round drum shaped toner cartridges. These printers have a toner transfer assembly for each color inside the printer on the main image transfer unit. These toner transfer assemblies will also have metal plates on them which can be cleaned. They must first be removed from the toner transfer assembly, you may need a jewelers screwdriver to remove them.

Be careful, the cleaning edges of these metal plates can be very sharp.

Cleaning my unit resulted in the solution of this problem. I removed the toner cartridges, the imaging unit, and the waste bin, opened the back door as well, and blew it out with "canned air". This will not solve all problems, but it is the right place to start. be careful to keep the imaging unit out of bright light when you you have it out of the printer.

Took out all drum toner cartridges as well as waste container and cleaned with compressed air all parts as well as cleaned sensors with alcohol wipes. Cleaned CLP-300 Imaging Kit also called drum cartridge or fuser unit. (part #Clp-r300a). Problem solved.

Hi

It sounds like the fuser unit has issues and Samsung with the CLP 300 upwards seem to have issues like this all the time.

I would suggest contacting Samsung customer services to see if you can have the unit replaced free of charge.

how long has the printer gone without maintenance? If your copies are still coming out light with new toner, it probably needs a new transfer roller or fuser or imaging unit.

If the waste container has been emptied, make sure that the area that the waste toner sensor looks through is clean inside and out.

There was a problem with the sensor for the waste toner container. If still under warranty, an authorized servicer should repair free of charge.
