SUBJECT: TONER OVERFLOW CONDITION
SYMPTOM:
A toner overflow condition is detected prematurely.
CAUSE:
When high volume copy jobs are made consecutively, waste toner scraped off by the Transfer Belt Cleaning
Blade may cause some toner to collect / accumulate on the Toner Overflow Sensor. In the worst case, this
may cause the Toner Overflow Sensor to prematurely detect an overflow condition.
SOLUTION:
1. Install the Toner Guide Mylar (P/N A2323928) on the Transfer Belt Cleaning Blade, as shown in the
figure below. The Toner Guide Mylar will prevent the used toner from prematurely building up on the
Toner Overflow Sensor.
2. Replace the old style Transfer Belt Cleaning Blade with the new style Transfer Belt Cleaning Blade
(P/N A2323830) which has the Toner Guide Mylar mounted on it.

The following parts updates are being issued for all A230, A231 and A232 Parts Catalogs.
