Hi there. I am having a problem with my Kyocera Printer FS-2020D. It keeps printing a black line all the down the left hand side of the page. I've tried cleaning everything I can think of and it's still doing it. Is there something else I may not be doing to fix this?

Hi there check that it isn't the drum unit by turning the machine off open the top cover remove the toner and underneath you will have the dev unit unplug and lift out then remove the transfer tray (the one you open if there is a jam) open side door remove waste tank then you have the drum unit now to remove there is either a push button or a screw do either one that corresponds and check the unit. If there is a black line on one side the only way to get rid of the line is to replace the cleaning blade as this has worn. you can clean the drum unit cleaning blade it may only be toner stuck under the blade all you have to do is rotate the drum the opposite way of operation and if you have to hand a air line just give it a blast failing this it will defently need replacing.

Hope this is of some help
Please rate me

SOURCE: kyocera printer problem

First I would recommend cleaning the printer. When you change the toner there is sheet of paper that comes with the toner cartridge that explains how to properly clean the printer. If you do not have that handy, there is a panel on the left hand side of the printer that you need to open. Once the panel is open you will see the waste toner bottle; leave it in place. Above and to the right of the waste toner bottle will be a green nob. Pull this green nob slowly in and out three or four times. This will clean the charging wire. Next underneath the green nob there should be a piece that looks like a rectangular box when you pull it out. I believe it is green as well. This is the charger grid. With each toner you should have gotten a small slate blue box with a plastic lid that has a piece of felt under the plastic lid. Remove the lid and this should slot in under the long, rectangular charger grid. Move this back and forth three or four times and than remove the slate blue box. Gently push the charger grid all the way back in and close the access panel.

If this does not fix your problem I would recommend getting service from wherever you purchased the printer as you may have damaged the drum.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

SOURCE: CLEANING A KYOCERA FS-2000D

Follow the page http://www.fixya.com/support/t1336338-kyocera_fs2000_thin_black_vertical_line

Basically, you remove the cartridge and developer all at once, then remove the waste toner bottle, then push the grey tab in to release the drum cartridge (be very, very careful in removing and putting back in. Any scratches on the drum and you will enjoy black spots permanently on printouts).

On the right side of the grey charger section is a tab you can use to release it. Do this, then put the drum away in a light tight back to prevent damage to it.

The reason why this Kyocera printer doesn't have the primary charger wire cleaner is because it did away with it. It now charges via a black fuzzy looking roller on top which is like the secondary corona charger wire, which then applies it to a roller, which then applies it to the drum. I think this is nice since it should prevent printer quality problems better since there is nowhere for oxidation to really collect. But, OTOH, it does happen anyhow.

I cleaned mine off and the streaks disappeared. I used a non amonia based cleaner to help, since I didn't find any dust on it to begin with. Whatever you choose, do not get your fingers on it, or it will put oil onto the rollers and that will make it worse.

Worked for me.

SOURCE: Kyocera FS-2020D won't print

You have to go to setting to change the cassette paper size , what happen is : in the setting that cassette has different size value, so when you try to print A4 it ask you to load it in the bypass or the Mp. all what you have to do is: go to cassette setting or comon setting and change the cassette siz to A4, and it will fix your problem.

How do I detach the transfer roller bushes of a kyocera fs-2020d?

Hello,
if you remove the pcr assy from the drum unit you will need to put the assy on the table. With a small slotted screwdriver you will have to wedge between the black roller bushes and the gray support on the pinion side.

Best regards,
Marius

Hi When I try to print a page I keep getting a staggered watermark line down the right hand side, how do I fix this? do the cartridges need to be realigned? maria

As Kyocera FS-4000DN is a Laser Printer, it does not require cartridge alignment. However, the cartridge should be properly seated.
Vertical lines are usually due to the toner cartridge getting old and wearing out. Most often, this issue can be fixed just by cleaning the green drum of the cartridge. Take the cartriddge out of the printer and you will be able to find the line on the drum. Use a dry, soft lint-free cloth to clean it. It may require cleaning more than once thoughout the circumference of the toner cartridge.Secondly, it could be the PCR roller, which is a black roller just behind the green drum. Also, try clean it if possible.

GoodLuck!

My Kyocera FS-C5030N has just started printing a red line on the right side of every page?

Try cleaning the magenta charge grid on the left side door of printer. But from my experience this is caused by the magenta developing unit wearing out or going bad. A kyocera dealer can help with this.

A black line is printing 6.5cm from the right side of the page

Clean the main charge, this is a step that is suppose to be done when replacing the toner but most people don't. The instructions to do this is in your users manual. If you dont have the manual go to www.gfbm.net to download one. Also make sure the cleaner is placed all the way back to the right when done or it will effect your prints.

Kyocera Mita Ecosys PS 1010 all prints have thick and thin line down left hand side A little while back the printer started printing completely black sheets. Fixed by turning off and then on again. Since...

Try cleaning the charge wire. Move the lime green plastic handle from one side of the image unit to the other in the groove. If this doesn't work you'll need a new image unit.$$$$$. note: Make sure green handle is moved completely to the right when finished or black line will occur.
