    Phaser Hard drive duplication

    Ah, I knew the 840, 850 and 860 model have slight differences. But i was not aware that it is also the HDD mounting (and maybe the use of program on it). Also the partlist website of the 840, 850, 860 and 8200 doesn't show it. Also not about a cable inbetween HDD and mainboard. Also if the HDD...

    Phaser Hard drive duplication

    With the 'HDD-board' i mean the support board with the PCI like contacts on it that the HDD is screwed on with the metal plate on the other side that covers the slot in the printer.

    Phaser Hard drive duplication

    The 'HDD-board' has a PCI646U2 IC on it to convert the IDE to the PCICIA slot of the mainboard. It is a HDD controller. For the rest is has no logic function for the mainboard. I didn't test it. But since the board and the HDD are always together, i think the printer can be confused if it...

    Phaser Hard drive duplication

    Forgot to say: If you have the HDD out also have the HDD-board out. Don't have it in wihtout the HDD.

    Phaser Hard drive duplication

    No there is nothing nessesairy on it. All the system files etc. are on the bootrom and the motherboard. It is only an extra option for the basic model of the printer for duplexing, storing fonts and the posibility to have a startup job. Without the HDD it just will not have this options.

    Phaser Hard drive duplication

    Then i don't understand why you want to do this. What is on the disk that makes it so valuable? The printer will also work without the drive(board), so first make your printer working, then install a fresh drive and make the filesystem on it. After that install the extra fonts if you need them...

    Phaser Hard drive duplication

    It is the program HD.exe available from the Xerox website. It will whipe the drive clean and install the nessesairy file(s)(-system). Just put the new harddrive in a working printer and run the program from a computer connected to it.

    Tektronix Phaser 850DP Jam reprint last page forever

    The error 22,508.08 is of the Preheat entry sensor. It is behind the front cover. It is a plastic piece on the right side before the rollers where the paper enters the preheater. It triggers a optical sensor on a combined sensor board. Try to find if one of them is blokked or broken. On the fru...

    Phaser 850 - Out of Ink (Add ink) message

    The sensor for the inkstock might be blocked or dirty. It/they are located at the outside of the inkloader compartement under the grey cover plastic strips inbetween and at the side of the inkslots. They get pushed when the part pushes the ink reaches the end. The most simple cause would be that...

    Phaser 850 distorting or burning ink colors

But for the rest i print collors quite much. Mybe somebody with more technical experience on this part...

    Phaser 840 loud buzzing.

    The answer Dacurve did give was right. The belt doesn't have to jump teeth before it needs retentioning. If it is, it is actually far to late. The motor wants to set the drum still at a position after a print job. When the belt doesn't have enough tension the motor becomes instable to hold it...

    Phaser 840 size of printhead gap?

    I did find out the printhead gap by try & error. It is about 1,1mm between drum and printhead in a warm adjust. I did do it by having a small stack of note papers inbetween when adjusting the printhead. Then finding the point where i could or could not move them anymore. After it it is very...

    Phaser 840 inks sticks to the drum

    I did find out what the problem is with the ink stikking to the drum. It is because the maintenance roller does not get to the very side of the drum. For some reason the pinter does print there in certan cases. But since there is no oil there and the wiper doesn't get it away the ink stays on...

    Rapid Release Guide Conversion Kit - Phaser 840

    I also need the kit. Some fingers broke of and made damage to other parts. I didn't order the kit yet. But i disassembled the old finger strippers a few times. You have to get the exterior off, and then unscrew a torx screw or twoo. After that unclip a holder and the part is out. With...

    Phaser 840 inks sticks to the drum

    Hello, Some times after a hundred prints the inks sticks to the drum. This is mostly when i print large quantities of the same full page covering picture. When on the duplex side that line/spot (at the side of the page) is not covered with ink the problem is not there. It is at the side of the...

    Phaser 840 size of printhead gap?

    Hello, What is the distance in between the printhead ande the drum? My printhead is just a litle bit to close to the drum. I have the service manuals, but they only discribe that you can use 2 special plastic distance holders to adjust the gap. Also don't like it to adjust by trail & error. I...

    Phaser 840

    I have had the same problem. One on the end was broken. I glued it together again. Then some time later it broke again and damaged the transfix roller. It got stuck in between and now there is an artifact on the prints. :( But anyway i mis one at the end of the blue picks and the black extra...
