How to fuser chnge

look around the printer, find screws, open it carefully,slowly

Hello,

It sounds like you may need to change it again. These printers use a Teflon coated heat roller in the fuser. If you print envelopes that will scar the heat rolller, this can also happen if there is a piece of paper jammed in the fuser assembly and it scraped the fuser roller. Open the back of the printer and look at the roller in the fuser. I would bet that you see the roller is damaged. Here is a link to a post about the Laserjet 2100 printer with the same issue. It has pictures of the roller and what to look for, the fuser is different but the principle is the same.

I hope this helps, if so please rate my solution.

Hello, When you first install the printer onto the Network it will automatically find an IP Address, this is called "DHCP". In order to change the IP Address the printer needs to be setup as what is known as "STATIC". You can do this in in a couple of ways 1) Type the IP Adrees into an internet explorer Browser, this should open up the printers EWS (embedded Web Browser) if it opens click on the networking tab - Chnge the IP Address , set DHCP to "OFF"and click Apply. 2) From the printers control panel - push the "MENU" button and scroll down to the "CONFIGURE DEVICE" to "I/O" to "EMBEDDED JETDIRECT" Withi the TCIP setting you are able to change the printers IP Address

The error code is related to the fuser area.

Likely to be a low fuser temp issue.


Need to verify good or bad heat lamps.

1) Check each lamp in fuser.

(lamp is good if you get continuity)
(lamp is bad if open)

2) Check the thermostat. (thermal control device)
(triggers if unit gets too hot)

3) Also check thermistor (monitors temp of fuser)
(2) total (middle and rear)

If heat lamp is good:

Your best bet is to change all three items. (Temp fix)

Fuser thermostat - thermal control device
Fuser thermistor (middle front) - thermal control device
Fuser thermistor (rear) - thermal control device

These items wear out. Change at the same time.

Fuser needs to be rebuilt or replaced.

if the Fuser unit rubber are not burned , change the
Fuser unit Thermister....

1. Turn the printer off.
2. Open the top cover.
3. Grasp the purple handles on the fuser.
4. Remove the old fuser from the printer.
5. Install the new fuser.
6. Close the top cover.
