Thank you, I just cleaned our company's printer and it works perfectly! Your video saved us! (Considering that my boss planned to get a new printer because there was a sticky substance on the drums...)
Clear and helpful video. Thank you.
Thanks! Short & cripsy clear to understand
Very helpful. Thank you so much.
This made a huge difference for my HP4L with a new unopened (but very old) cartridge that was streaking!
HP 4L, I remember it. very old printer
THANK YOU, you helped a lot!!!
Worked perfectly! Thank you!
important information, thank you.
非常实用的教程，多谢
Great! It worked.
your videos are so good and informative
Thank you
Electrical contact circuit cleaner spray contains isopropyl alcohol . It also evaporates very quickly and you can get it from most Car Spares Stores Shop's. Just a thought if you can't easily buy the bottle version
probably it contais addittives. however better to spray it not directly on the drum
Perfect Bro
thank you for the video........I have recently moved to a new place, my old xerox laser jet starts printing dark shadow on both edges of the paper. Will this solve the problem?
I don't know the modeò of your printer but I think you can try
worked perfect, i had a piece of a label stuck on the drum.
Thanks
Very useful and practical video. Had a question. If there are bands of color toner on the transfer belt, is it a drum problem or transfer belt issue? I cleaned the transfer belt, but when I I print again after cleaning the belt, it shows up again on the transfer belt and also on my print. Any suggestions?
I think it's a transfer belt problem. if the bands are vertical probably the wiper blade
Thank you so much@@viandant5 for your feedback. Appreciated that. Is the viper blade something that I could replace or just replace the transfer belt? It is a OKI 920 wt printer.
@@georgezachariah8332 Yes it could be replaced but I think it's difficult to find. May be on alibaba. However without checking the printer I can't be sure
Thank you. You do some great and valuable service to us by sharing your knowledge @@viandant5 . God bless you
Hello- I replaced the transfer belt and I am still getting the bands of color toner on the transfer belt. Can you think of anything or have any further suggestion? @@viandant5
Hi I'm trying to resuscitate a Samsung CLP356W printer after few years of no use. Cleaning the drum as per your instructions works ok initially but rotating the drum it gets very dirty again (toner powder not grease or else) and it keeps like that even rotating several times.Is it normal or should I assume the drum unit is too dirty inside and needs to be replaced? Thank you for help.
MAy be the wiper blade is too old, or the toner cartridges are defective or low of toner
@@viandant5 thank you for your prompt answer
THANKS BRO!
Hello I have an hp colorlaserjet pro mgp m182n that uses hp 216a color toner cartridges . The problem I am facing is that whenever I replace drum of black cartridge , it's intensity of black in every print increases, slight outline of black comes around some words and whole page is kind of blackish. This happens with every new drum.
Can you kindly tell cause of this issue and how can that be solved?
In the control panel there are the settings
@@viandant5 can you tell why this problem occurs?
Also what do I have to do in control panel?
@@hathakker802 Set the brightness to low
@@viandant5 can please tell the cause/reason for this to happen? Is it a problem?
@@hathakker802 Every toner has its own settings, when new often prints darker

Are you sure the drum is turning freely and the cartridge is correctly installed?

yes but it depends on which toner you use to refill the cartridge
i have ricoh 2014ad printis coming light pls tell me the solution

Ciao Ho una samsung m2026w e vorrei pulire il rullo vicino al tamburo, come posso fare senza smontare l'intera cartuccia?
Quale rullo? il rullo di trasferimento?
Help! I clean the drum but now I can't put back the "toner cartridge lock release lever" the box where the toner goes. Please help me out.
difficult to say without knowing which machine do you have, probably it's broken
I was reinserting it wrongly, my son helped me it's working perfectly. Thank you for getting back to me, I have a Sharp 237
Your own voice is better 🙂

Ciao, ho pulito il tamburo del toner della mia Samsung ML-2010R. Il tamburo, dopo averlo pulito, continuava a risultare sporco di toner ogni volta che lo facevo ruotare a mano. Poi ho rimontato il toner e la stampa risulta sempre sporca. Posso fare qualcosa per evitare che il tamburo si sporchi? Ti ringrazio in anticipo. Salvatore
Forse la lama di pulizia è difettosa, oppure oòtpner ha preso umidità o è ormai vicino all'esaurimento ed occorre sostituirlo
Grazie mille per la risposta. Posso aggiungere toner nel serbatoio e verificare se riprende a funzionare bene?@@viandant5
@@user-dg9ju9eh2u Sì ma prima andrebbe svuotato il otner vecchio altrimenti se si mischia con il toner nuovo siamo al punto di prima
Perché non posso mischiare toner presi da cartucce diverse? Grazie@@viandant5
@@user-dg9ju9eh2u Il toner che rimane nella cartuccia è toner di scarto, comunque mischiare due composizioni chimiche diverse non dà buoni risultati
what happens if you touch the drum with your finger?
probably nothing but may be your fingers are dirty and you have to claen the drum with isopropyl alcohol
So just curious, in my printer, when I remove one of the cartridges, it tells me I put in a used, or counterfeit cartridge, and doesn't know how many prints I have left in that cartridge. Is there a way to avoid that?
which printer and what do you want to avioid? the error message?
@@viandant5 an HP color laserjet printer m477. When I had removed one of the cartridges, when I was replacing some of them, I removed one that I wasn't replacing. When I put it back in, it gave me an error message stating it was either used or something and would no longer tell me how much ink it feels is in the printer. So I have no idea when it's going to run out. But before I removed it, it did tell me.
So I'm just wondering if there is a way to remove one of the cartridges, clean it, and then put it back in without it thinking I "bought a used cartridge" and no longer telling me how much "ink" is left.
@@FeCAzorius Is it a compatible cartridge? the HP firmware updates have the purpose to create problems to compatible cartridges. WHen you removed it, the printer detect it as a new compatible cartridge and send that error message
@@viandant5 Two things.
1. Are you saying it only provides that error if you pull an official cartridge and not on third party?
2. If I unplug my printer first, then pull out the cartridge, clean it, put it back in, will it still send that error message? On official and 3rd party ink?
@@FeCAzorius Hp make everything to create problems to compatible cartridges, especially when you update the firmware
Can j use water instead
water will not clean the drum very well
Dont touch the drum with your fingers? You just rolled with your fingers for 3 minutes.
on the sides
Probably highest percentage concentration isopropyl is best eh? 99%
may be but 90% is enought
Didnt help 😢
It was dirty, but removing the powder didn't change anything, it still leaves long slightly noticeable marks all over the sheet...
The cleaning does not work if the drum is defective
