Using a Phaser 6200 imager in 6250

[ozrock]

Hi,

I have just bought a Xerox Phaser 6250DT and have noticed the imager is near the end of it's life and is becoming somewhat streaky at times.

I was wondering whether I could use the imager I have in my 6200 in the 6250?

That imager is 49% and and I would prefer it in the 6250 at the moment until I get a new one.

I know they are the same unit and part number however i am not sure whether I can chnage them once they have been used in another machine.

Also, every now and then I am getting an 'engine failure' Code 72 in the 6200 and altho it is fine once I turn it off and on again, I am not sure how long that will be the case.


Thanks

No, the part# is 108R00591 for the 6250
The part# is 016201200 for the 6200

Sorry, forgot about the error on the 6200. an engine error could be a connection, or a firmware update is needed.
It is an NVRAM error. Reinstall bothe fuser and imaging units. Re-seat the EEPROM. Replace Engine control board.

Thanks for that.

I have looked again inside both printers and they have the exact same 108R00591 unit in them. In fact the imager, fuser and transfer have the exact same opart numbers and look exactky the same.

I just bought the 6250 with it in and I have had the 6200 for a few years and have bought that 591 as a replacement a years or so ago. It is now at 57%.

This is how the unit is being advertised everywhere so I am not sure waht Xerox are up to with this new part number.

As per google..
FUJI XEROX 108R00591 IMAGING UNIT FOR PHASER 6200/ 6250

My concern was whether once it had been used in the 6200 whether I could use it in the 6250 (if it was the same unit) or whether the chip in it would freak out and cause damage. The 6250's 591 is at 12% and as the ink is starting to run on magenta and blue a little, thought I could use it here as well.

Thanks for your time and input.

Oh no!!!

Just to confuse it a bit more I have found this on the Australia Fuji-Xerox shop site.

Phaser 6200 Imaging Kit (041L67139)
The Phaser 6200 Imaging kit is also suitable for the 6250 machine model.

Still I know they are the same thing as I have them here out of the machines in front of me.. Same 591 part number etc.

So just needed to know whether it would be safe to use them from one to another.

Thanks
