<\/a><\/p>\nyou should se 2 cobber contacts in the right side of the imaging unit, this small device can be removed from the unit.<\/p>\n
inside the unit that i took apart, there where 2 resistors, the small one, is actual just a\u00a0 “sense” function that makes the printer aware if the unit is not installed, in my case the resisitor was a 140K\u03a9, the larger resistor was a 56\u03a9 but this resistor was burned and did no longer function. So this resistor functions as a “new” device put into the printer, the printer then burns this resistor to reset the imaging unit counter.<\/p>\n a quick trip to the storage with a new 56\u03a9 resistor, i removed the old one and soldered the new inside the unit, i used a 1% resistor as this was the only type that i had.<\/p>\n i then put the unit back into the imaging unit, and cleaned the unit for any excess toner, and dust.<\/p>\n then i put everything back into the printer and powered the unit on.<\/p>\n i printed a report for the unit and wolia \ud83d\ude42 the printer now thinks the imaging unit is new.<\/p>\n i den took the unit apart again and checked the resistor, somehow the printer didn’t burn i properly so i remove the resistor , just to be sure that i didn’t break anything, maybe the original samsung placed resistor is easer to burn?, but hey what the heck it did the job.<\/p>\n This fix\/hack cost around 0.50DKR, and a new imaging unit cost around 900-1100DKR so witch one do you chose?.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well the place where i do some voluntary work, had this Samsung CLX-3175FW Color Laser printer for some years now and the unit i starting to show to following warning: “replace imaging unit soon” from the old days doing repairs … Continue reading <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
