Ok, this is the second time I'm trying to send this, as my browser chose the moment I did copy to my first attamped to spell check it to crash and leave me a little mad...
So to make a long story short, I have a Phaser 750 printer, and I had to replace the fuser (one of the rolls in it lost a piece of coating, so it left "water marks" on the printed paper), so I got a used one on ebay, but when I put it in, I got the "stopped fuser roll:replace" message, so I tried to put in it my fuser roll from my old fuser, which still has 95% life on it. as it turned out, when the fuser roll ends, and the machine stops on that error, it will not start until you install a new fuser roll... as I done some reading, I understand that these fuser roll mostly use a fuse that when new, tells the machine it's new, and thus it can go on, and then it blows the fuse and all is well... so I was looking at the fuser roll I have, and all I could see was a pair of resistors where the fuser roll comes into electrical contact with the fuser itself... so does any one know how I can locate this fuse in the fuser roll, and short it out to make my machine accept my 95% "old" fuser roll?

Thanks.

Yuval Lahav.
