    [HELP] KYOCERA M2540dn

    Good day, may I just want to ask for a help, is there anyone experience this kind of error. There is a blurred print out on my machine on the left side. I attached a copy of output.

    we already tried to clean to waste toner container, and other parts, but still the problem exist. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thank you..

      Maybe clean the laser?
      BTW, why would cleaning the waste toner help with fade?
      That's like your car won't start but you checked the tire pressure.
      We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
      The medication helps though...

        no offense, but given your location I can guarantee generic toner, so all bets are off.

          You mean the whole maintenance kit?
          MK-1158?

                    Have you cleaned the scanner optics?
                    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
                    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
                    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
                    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
                    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
                    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

                        being that you are a noob, as you stated. your best bet is to call a trained tech. if you don't know what you are doing in that area. you could really mess some stuff up. and basically brick the machine.

                          Cleaning scanner optics on small tabletop MFP's can be a major operation, usually involving removing the DF & the whole scanner assembly, then flipping the scanner assembly upside-down to get to the screws. And there's plenty of opportunities to mess up delicate components.

                          An experienced tech can get those optics clean in an hour ... and the machine will still work when it's clean. That's my recommendation. =^..^=
                          If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
                          1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
                          2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
