Ensure separation clutch is operating properly too.

On fleabay looking for ink for my printer... came across people selling used printheads claiming the same part will work in either the 860 or the 8200. Any truth to this claim? I know they don't use the same ink.

I believe the default Micro$oft driver for the LJ2200D does not allow for duplexing. If you're using the default driver, try changing to the HP driver.

You lost me, tape on WHAT flapper?

It's a Phaser 860N BTW.

I know it's related to the DM clutch, but what is causing it? This another case of the bad DM clutch?

Now I got the original message again. Anybody???

I have a Phaser 360 I'm beating my head against with multiple problems. When I first got the call to look at it, the complaint was a 05,002.42 error. I noticed the first time I powered it up that the error didn't appear right away, in fact I watched the thting for nearly an hour and saw that...

I've never had good results with getting Xerox to talk to me, unless I'm calling the wrong people. Soemthing to do with not being a certified tech. If any body can come up with the part number, even if it's for the whole tray, I'd love it.

I have a Phaser 780 with a split gear on the fuser drawer. Service manual shows no individual part numbers for tht drawer, not even for the whole drawer. Gear is the black on on the side of the drawer. Any notion of what a part number is?

Totally dead. No fans, no health LED, no display. I can make the power supply come up by doing a jumperwire bypass, and it produces the correct voltages. But when doing this test, I keep the engine board out of the power loop. At the moment I'm thinking I may have missed something when I was...

If you are refering to the formatter board, that was one of the first things I tried.

It's dead. power supply checks ok, tried a different engine board. Appear to ahve continuity through the toner sensor. Died after clearing a paper jam. Cleared the jam, close the lid and it shut down. Ideas other than tossing it out the window?

Got printer jamming from the MPT tray with tabloid paper. May do it with other sizes, but haven't seen it. From observation, my first though was strictly mechanical. It would start to feed the paper and then stop, reporting a jam. I replaced the MPT tray assembly since the roller isn't available...

I'd have to wonder about there being something in there as Marty has suggested. If a component were burning out, it would have failed and presumably brought the printer down. It wouldn't be in a failing but working (and smelling) state for very long. Failed IC's can give off a sharp odor, but...
