Kyocera Ecosys M3550idn, M3560idn Fuser Replacement
Below you will find the illustrated Kyocera Ecosys M3550idn, M3560idn Fuser Replacement procedure. Furthermore, you will find links to order in a replacement fusing unit if needed. Like most other Kyocera manuals, I looked through the manual a little and couldn’t really find a defined. Maintenance life of the fuser. The manual says the PM kit on this model is rated at 500,000. Like most other Kyocera’s I find that hard to believe. I kind of go under the impression that if you make it halfway without having to replace a major part then your doing good. If you find yourself at the halfway mark then I tend to say, go a head and just buy the PM kit and replace everything or just replace what you need and keep the other parts because you will need them sooner rather than later and you save a bunch of money over buying each part individually. Notice I put bunch in bold.
