You want to note the frequency of the ghost image. the drums are 1.5 inch round and the fuser rollers are a little bigger like 2 inch round and then the y1 trans belt is way bigger like 19 inches and the y2 belt is like 6 inches. If th ghost only happends with one color you could be pretty sure your problem is with that single drum. if it happends in multiple colors look at the other options first.

y2 and fuser you can see when opeing the right side of the machine
y2 is the wider rubber belt that is lower and the fuser is the hot hting at the top with that flip down cover.

y1 belt comes out with 4 blue screws after the front and right side of the machine are open, the toner waste container is out, and you line up the u shaped thing in the middle. turn in the direction indicted untill you see the green stick apear in the back threw the u.

The drums come out after you remove the developer units. with the machine off Open the front cover remove the toner waste container and loosen the two blue captured screws on either side of the plastic piece that covers the drum units. once those screws are loose check to make sure that the primary transfer unit is disengaged. there is a u shaped thing in the middle that needs to line up. if it is not lined up then rotate the blue screw in the direction indicated until it is. flip the whole plastic bar up if it catches in the middle don't force it rotate that screw. if it catches on the sides then just push it harder the sides make a pop noise sometimes before they give. each of the developer units have a flip up cover that gives you access to another blue captured screw. Pull on the cover from the bottom up then loosen the screw and the developer units will pull towards you. after you pull a dv unit the corresponding drum unit comes out by pressing a button down. the drum units are rebuildable in this machine. there are two blue plastic screws in the end holding a bronze bushing, and two silver plastic screws holding a cover on. there is a snap on side cover that will release the grid. and then three blue screws to get the wiper out. in general on sharps it is ok to pull out blue screws, but never ever pull out red screws.

Let me know if you need more hlep.

Why is sharp mx2700 black ghosting ?

Check the fuser assembly and make sure the 2 levers for envelope printing are not engaged. They reduce the pressure between the fuser rollers and then the copies get issues like that. If that doesn't fix the issue Could be the drum or the transfer belt cleaning assembly causing this problem.

Hp 5550 patchy print

Most of the cases fuser assembly or supplies are causes of ghost image. If image is not properly transferring on media causes transfer roller or ETB.
Do this small exercise: Give print command, wait till paper grabs, once paper entered in cartridge area, power it off, open top & front cover, remove paper and see the print quality.Observed any ghost image what you observed? No ghost image? then problem with fuser assembly..

1.Remove fuser assembly, check any toner particles deposited on surface of fuser transfer roller or heater roller.. if found clean carefully with good cotton cloth while fuser having certain temperature,pl avoid metal & sharp objects to clean..
2. Clean paper path roller(You can observe the rollers to push the paper to reach the destination)
I hope this exercise will resolves the issue..

How to clean drum

I apologize for not having an answer to this but I do not have any manuals on this printer/copier. In the past when I had difficulty with a drum I replaced the drum and wiped down the rollers before and after the drum after letting it cool.

When i start sharp- mx27004 printer then show problem is ''call for service code f2-40''

Hello.

Sounds like you need a service call. But, the tech should first check/inspect the Drum, Transfer Unit, and Fuser Unit and then reset your counter.

Hope this helps.

How to delete password protected pront job in Sharp mx-2700N when password is lost? I can log in as admin (web-access to printer) but cannot delete the documents in Documenthandling. BR, Steven

Open web interface of the printer and supply admin password.
As an administrator you should be able to navigate to the System Settings screen.
Select Document Filing Settings and navigate to the section Administrator Authority Setting.
Select Delete so you can delete forgotten print jobs (remember to Save the setting).
Navigate on Document Operation where you can see a list of existing saved print jobs.
Select the jobs to delete and go on.
You don't have unwanted ghosts anymore on your machine!

Most important: always remeber to smile and to help people. Take care.

Sharp 2700N has gray bands on copies

Hi
be very careful you could cost your self allot of $

If the grey band moves it could be 1 of 2 things 1st try cleaning the fuser section be careful it is very hot, and if you not familiar with this you may want to find a service provider, it can get a little tricky, 2nd it could be the Drum cleaning blade and the drum need to be replaced. if you take the drum out this also can be very tricky. It sounds also like it may just need to be cleaned like the mirrors and platen.

Good Luck
