The error code you gave shows several possibilities for your issue:

Drum charge corona wire, The output of the charge corona wire of the black PCU is abnormal.

Causes

• CGB power pack connection loose, broken defective • Check CGB power pack connection to BCU • CGB power pack defective • BCU defective • Replace OPC drum

Of the five possibilities above, replacing the drum is the most likely cause. Since you only had your drum for a couple of weeks I would take it back to where you purchased it and ask for replacement. Sometimes you get a bad drum out of the box from the manufacturer. It happens. If the same error code pops up again, I recommend you call your local Ricoh dealer for further troubleshooting.

if you can clean the black line with a cloth, than you need just to replace the cleaning blade, but if the black line is not removing without a cloth, then you need to replace the opc drum and the cleaning blade or both blades, some machines of this type have only one cleaning blade but some have two cleaning blade.
