The fuser is a part of laser printer that bonds the toner and paper together using heat and pressure. Fusers need to be replaced every 75,000 – 300,000 pages depending on the printer model.
Some of the common symptoms that determine the need for replacing the fuser:
Noise Coming From the Fuser Area – Humming, Grinding, Chirp or squeaking noises
Image Defects
Darker gray (not black) vertical lines down the page, Repeated images / Ghosting, Toner rubbing off
Error codes 50 Service Error
Paper Jams
Ripped or worn fuser film sleeve
Worn or broken fuser sensor flags
Worn or damaged fuser gears
Ripped or worn lower pressure rollers
Paper Jam locations just before paper entry on the fuser or halfway through the fuser
On fuser exit just as the paper is coming out of the fuser
As the accounting manager here for over 19 years I had tried several cartridge companies. By far Express Computer has proven to be most consistently reliable in terms of service and quality. I highly recommend them. We use their products for all our copier and printer supplies. Our relationship started with a phone call in 2008 and they have been our sole source since.

Manufacturers assess different maintenance intervals for the machines they produce, the periods can be anywhere from once a month to once a year.
Every printer model is different, so the parts included in individual kits will vary.
These are replaceable parts that are often included in commercial printer kits.
Transfer rollers are usually located underneath the toner cartridge. These rollers transfer toner particles onto the page using static electricity.
Pickup Rollers
These are also known as feed rollers or separation rollers. They pick the paper up and feed it into the printer. When they malfunction, the printer may no longer pick up individual sheets of paper, or it may fail to feed paper into the print mechanism.
Separation Pads
Separation pads apply tension to paper as the pickup rollers feed sheets into the printer. This ensures different types of paper behave in a nearly uniform way. Worn-out separation pads can cause paper jams.
Corona Assembly
The corona assembly is the component that creates the electrical charge that the transfer roller uses to attract toner particles to the paper sheet.
Fan Assembly
The fan assembly draws air into the printer precisely – just enough to keep the paper flat as it travels through the print mechanism.
Recommended by all the printer manufacturers, maintenance kits will prolong the life of your printer. Contact Express Computer Products for a quote.

Been using Express for several years now. They provide 80% of all the cartridges we use at our facilities in Pennsylvania and Ohio. Are they perfect? No. But they are however a damn sight better than just about anyone. Very good and consistent quality for not original products. Great customer service and a willingness to work with a difficult company (us). What impresses me most is when problems do happen, they make it right and show a solid interest in improving fulfillment processes. Generally very happy with these guys.”
