Plotwave750 not fusing well.

Hello! I have a plotwave 750 and the print out is not fusing well. When i try to rub it with my hands theres always a toner residue in the print outs? What can you suggest for the technicians out there? Should i change the developer unit? Separation/Fusing Wire? Thank you for the suggestions.

First of all, there are no fuser lamps on a Plotwave 750. There is just a fuser assembly. Secondly, the fuser assembly has many temperature sensors, not just two. Thirdly, there is no pressure roller. This is a radiant fusing device.

Basically, don't pay attention to anything the above user mentioned.

There a main sensor on the fuser section that basically is the reference sensor for all of the other temperature sensors. They are the white ceramic sticks that are in the center coil. Be very careful, these are ceramic and are brittle. Breaking or cracking one will result in putting up an error code that will not allow any prints to occur.

You could replace the Reference NTC and see if that fixes your problem. If not, I would replace the entire fuser assembly, since it will be cheaper than replacing each of the other NTCs. I would also recommend calling a certified Oce/Canon technician that can safely replace NTCs.

If your toner is getting to the paper, it has nothing to do with either the developer or the grid wires. This is all dealing with the fuser. If the voltages are not correct, there would be an error on the system, so the power supply is probably good.

You do not need to license your system. Your system was licensed at installation. If you require an upgrade to your license, contact Canon or your licensed dealer.

I strongly believe that you can troubleshoot poor fusing on your Oce PlotWave 750 printer:

Check the fuser temperature sensors: The PlotWave 750 has two temperature sensors that monitor the fuser temperature. These sensors can sometimes become dirty or damaged, resulting in inaccurate temperature readings. Check the sensors for any visible damage or debris, and clean them thoroughly.

Inspect the fuser lamps: The fuser unit in the PlotWave 750 uses two halogen lamps to heat the toner and fuse it to the paper. These lamps can sometimes burn out or become damaged, resulting in poor fusing. Inspect the lamps for any visible damage, and replace them if necessary.

Check the fuser power supply: The fuser unit requires a steady supply of power to maintain the correct temperature. If the fuser power supply is faulty or inconsistent, it can cause poor fusing. Use a multimeter to check the voltage output of the fuser power supply, and replace it if necessary.

Inspect the pressure roller: The pressure roller in the fuser unit applies pressure to the toner and paper to ensure proper adhesion. If the roller is worn or damaged, it can cause poor fusing. Inspect the roller for any visible wear or damage, and replace it if necessary

Check the fuser bearings: The fuser unit has several bearings that allow it to rotate smoothly. If these bearings become worn or damaged, it can cause poor fusing. Check the bearings for any visible wear or damage, and replace them if necessary.

Clean the fuser unit: Over time, the fuser unit can become dirty or contaminated with toner or paper dust. This can interfere with proper fusing. Clean the fuser unit thoroughly with a soft cloth and a specialized cleaning solution.

Adjust the fuser settings: The PlotWave 750 has several fuser settings that can be adjusted to optimize fusing. These settings include fuser temperature, fuser pressure, and toner density. Experiment with these settings to see if they improve fusing.
