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...)

This made a huge difference for my HP4L with a new unopened (but very old) cartridge that was streaking!

At a previous job, I used to do a very similar thing to a commercial sized Xerox copier. We would run so much paper through those machines it would take no time at all until the paper started streaking badly.

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

Hi! first of all thanks for the videos, very helpfull. 👌🏽

I have a problem with my brother l5100 dn. Its printing dots in the center of the page. When i started the duplex print, the front page is perfect but in the back starting to appear some dots. Then in the next one seems to accumulate the dots. The problem increase whit more printed pages, the back pages have more dots than the front ones.

I allready clean the drum with 40% restant of life and bought a new original toner.

At the extremes the fuser looks wrinkled, could be that?

Thanks!

thank you for the 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 have any toner at hand so is it quite safe to skip the last step to apply toner to the drum or is there an alternative step?

[georgezachariah]

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?

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.
