Differences Between the D014/D015 & B132/B200

NOTES ABOUT SERVICING

These are notes about the differences in servicing the D014/D015 machine. These changes
are described in detail in Section 3.
1. Toner/developer and drum replacement.
The STCs of the B132/B200 and D014/D015 are not interchangeable. The D014/D015 uses
the new PxP toner and the developer bottle has a new design. The B132/B200 STCs cannot
be inserted in the D014/D015. The OPC drums of the B132/B200 and D014/D015 are also
not interchangeable.
2. Scanner Unit.
The shapes and sizes of some of the scanner unit boards have changed to make them
easier to service. Also, the arrangement of the APS sensors has been changed. The fan has
been removed from the left side of the scanner unit.
3. Laser Unit.
The SP codes for the laser unit (provided on a decal attached to the laser unit) have
changed. Also, the polygon motor harness connector has been modified.
4. PCU
The OPC and development unit must be separated for servicing.
The K and YMC PCUs are not the same. The K unit uses a charge corona unit and the
YMC units use charge rollers to charge the OPC drum.
The charge roller and cleaning roller are much easier to remove.
The PCU stand (stored under the machine) is still required for servicing. The bottom of
the D014/D015 PCU stand stores only one jig (required for developer replacement).
The PCU stand is required for servicing, because it provides two important functions: 1)
It protects the drum from damage and exposure to light while the PCU is out of the
machine, and 2) It keeps the OPC aligned correctly so the development unit can be
reattached.
The PCU stand must remain attached to the bottom of the main machine at the
customer site.
The shape of the D014/D015 PCU stand is not the same as the B132/B200
stand, so these stands are not interchangeable. Using the B132/B200 PCU
stand with a D014/D015 PCU could damage the drum.
The cleaning blades of the K PCU and YCM PCUs are not identical. One blade is
designed for use with the K PCU and another type for the YCM PCUs. Each blade is
marked "K" or "MCY" to identify the blade type.
