Sharp COPIERS - AR-5316

Most likely need to replace the developer

hello,
problem is your toner cartridge. inside of the toner cartridge have a toner roller it's didn't circling.or you are using duplicate toner powder.it's doesn't match with sharp ar 5520 developer. or your developer was expired.


first use original toner and try to make copies .i think your problem is solved.

hi,
blinking led after replacement of toner cartridge is normal , you have to wait till it gone .
how ever if you feel it take along time then you must check the toner cartridge and reinstall it properly if the machine still blinking you may have to change the developer.

thank you for using fixya

check your developer unit wheel set .i think it was broken.that 's why didn't add toner

CH steady means cover is open. Close either front or right cover well.
CH blinking means developer unit or toner cartridge not installed. Remove and return well and firmly.

The steps to take are

1. Open the toner door.
2. Remove the toner cartridge.
3. Unscrew and pull out the compartment housing the toner cartridge.
4. View to see three screws on the compartment undo them.
5. Next you see an enclosure with spiral, rigth there you pour in your developer. Then couple.

I hope it worked.
Thanks

The developer unit is inside the cartridge where the toner sits in. usually if you remove the toner hopper out of the copier and remove the top cover off you will see one compartment with toner and one with developer in it. The carrier is the the type of developer to use. All old developer needs to be removed from the machine as well as the mag roller in order to replace it.

Once it is removed the developer is placed evenly into the comparment. The hopper is reinstalled. Then a service mode is performed to calibrate the developed to make sure that the mixture is equal with the toner.

It should be done by a technician because if it isn't done properly, it will result in light copies being produced. The developer may get contaminated and have to be replace if it isn't done in the proper order.

The developer doesn't need to be reset on AR series machines. Toner and developer are in one cartridge. There is a drum reset. That is service code 24-07.

Did you replace the drum as well?

That unit uses an AR-016TD Toner/Developer Cartridge. The developer is changed each time you replace the toner. To remove the drum unit open the right side cover, then the front cover, remove the TD cartridge, loosen the green screw on the front of the developer unit housing just above the TD slot. carefully remove the DV unit without tipping or you will spill out the existing DV. Then you can pull out the drum unit. There may be a green screw on the drum that must be loosened but I don't think so on that particular model. Installation is the reverse of removal.

That model uses a TD cartridge so when you replace the toner the developer is included. The crum chip on the TD cartridge will reset the counters and sets the developer.
