Then, just for safe measure, copy and paste (or symlink) the contents of /usr/libexec/cups/filters/ to /usr/lib64/cups/filter/.

3.4 Using drivers from ebuild repositories.One of our units was purchase that way and once we swapped the fuser and put in genuine supplies, it's been fine ever since. ser-issuesI've seen problems happen when aftermarket loose gear meshing causes problems over the long run. To their credit, Brother will usually goodwill a fuser replacement, though they no longer seem willing to send a tech out to you to do it.

Supposedly they have ironed out the issues in the newer models. We have units going on their 3rd fuser replacement all before 100k. Any text after the fuser will be smudged-downward as it pulls through the fuser but at least it is affixed to the page.Īgain, this is well documented. Any text before the fuser will be crystal clear (and obviously will smear with your hand). (Or just look for the downward-smudged printouts). You can do a half-test to prove that the fuser is the culprit. It is a known-issue with Brother switching their fuser design over to the film sleeves.and doing a lousy job with the initial design. Our clients (libraries) only use OEM and it makes no difference. I just warrantied a DCP-L2540DW at 20k pages after it started pumping out blank pages (don't think that was fuser unit though).Īnyone know an equivalent to the 5900 that can network scan to a shared folder (SMB or FTP)?īrand of toner doesn't matter for this. I just bought a MFCL5900DW, it's supposed to arrive tomorrow but I'm pretty sure I'm set on sending it back because I damn sure don't want to end up with a machine that needs a new fuser every year. My older HL5370 is at 94k pages and has unusable print quality now, makes me wonder if I should get it fixed instead of replacing it with a newer unit that may need fuser units all the time. I'm wondering if anyone has had problems with Brother fusers with other recent models and if there has been a design change to correct this? I have 2 HL-L2340s, HL-L8350CDW, DCP-L2540DW, all sub 10k and that 5470 that I'm hoping will hold out like the older gen Brothers before it. Reading around the net there seems to be other people with fuser problems. To warranty it goes which I hate as I don't enjoy going through the annoying phone song and dance. It seems the problem stems from the fuser and or sleeve not rotating at correct speed thus causing blurred print quality as well as frequent jams.

So apparently our HL-5470DW we bought 11 months ago and only has 18k pages printed has a faulty fuser.
