Please let me know if this works for you.Place a check next to POP3/SMTP if it is not already checked, then click Advanced Setting. This is because the other senarios are highly unlikely whereas not returning the corona cleaning bar to the right location is quite common. I am almost 100% convinced that this is your problem as well. If for any reason that bar is not returned to its proper location, it will interfere with the proper functioning of the laser because it will block the light from touching the drum and thus not discharging and thus making a black band down the page. On the drum units, you will notice that there is a little bar that you are supposed to swing back and forth a few times in order to clean the corona wire. I told him the same thing that I told you in the reply I provided and my customer discovered what was interfering with the laser. One of my customers had the same issue this morning. In my earlier reply I said, "Lastly, it can be the laser that is no longer scanning the last inch of your paper." I think I may have the solution to your problem. This explains the fading on one side that you are experiencing. In your case, it seams that the coating is beginning to wear out on one side. Think of it as a hair thick coating of photo conductor material. The balance to achieve perfect printing is to get a uniform coating at is typically only a few microns think. This will produce very faint images or worse, no image at all (White prints). If the coating is too thin then even the slightest amount of laser light will cause total discharge. Therefore, the charge will not discharge and you will get solid black prints. If the coating is too thick the laser will not be able to penetrate all the way down to the aluminum core. Basically it is a aluminum cylinder coated with an insulator that becomes conductive with the presence of a particular frequency of laser light. Using any kind of solvent or physical pressure (cotton ball) will make it worse.Īs I explained above, the drum is a photo-conductor. In fact, it would mean that you got about 10-12 cartridges worth of use out of that drum.
I believe that the drum unit for the DCP-7040 is not rated for 28K prints. Your drum is most probably the cause of your issue. This is why I know that your problem can only be caused by either a laser that is not doing it's job, excess toner that has no place to go or a drum that no longer can be cleaned on one side due to blades (mechanical) or non-discharging (electrical) This is basically a heating unit that will cause the toner to melt into the paper, thus fusing the image.ħ) Wiper blades and cleaning lights then do their job of removing the excess toner from the drum. However, it is simply deposited there and will simply blow right off if not fused.Ħ) The paper passes through a fuser unit. This is why the roller on the cartridge is commonly called a "Developer Roller"ĥ) The developed Toner Image is now transferred to the paper. You can now see the image because it is formed with toner on the drum. This caused the image to be sort of developed. This is why drums are often called "Imaging Drums".Ĥ) The cartridge provides an evenly distributed thin layer of Toner to the drum. The laser creates an electrostatic image. It can be charged like an insulator but will discharge when laser light shines on it.Ģ) The drum is charged to a high voltage.ģ) The laser shines on the drum causing a discharge everywhere except where you want the toner to stick. Here is a quick summary of how laser printing works.ġ) The drum unit is a photo-conductor. This means you will need to get your printer serviced.
Lastly, it can be the laser that is no longer scanning the last inch of your paper.
Buy either the OEM or from a supplier with good warranty policies. Some of the imported aftermarket products are simply unreliable. Therefore, if you have never changed the drum, it is highly likely that it needs to be changed.īe careful when shopping for Brother drum units. The Machine you are using is old technology. If you cannot do that, then you may not have a choice to buy a new drum unit. In my opinion, if you have 2 of these printers you can swap the drum unit to see if that is the problem. Therefore, buying a new cartridge will not help. If it is, then perhaps your drum is not discharging properly or the cleaning blades are leaving a one inch band.įrankly, the Toner Cartridge could never leave a band.

Therefore, if your manual does not mention an excess toner compartment, you have nothing to worry about.Ģ) Look to see if the band of black toner is visible on your drum. I have never seen this on Brother printers.

If it does, it may be getting full and overflowing. If you are getting a one inch band all the way down the page, you need to check 2 things.ġ) Look in your manual to see if your printer has an excess toner compartment. The problems you are experiencing are quite different.įirst or all, toners do not bleed.
