Abstract:
A remanufactured toner cartridge comprising a toner hopper, a developer roller housing, end caps holding the waste bin and developer roller in a fixed position with respect to each other, and a seal assembly.
Abstract:
A method of remanufacturing a new style toner cartridge which has a toner cartridge/developer roller/waste bin sub assembly covered by a first and second end cap. The method includes removing the first and second end cap using a cutting tool and template, removing the existing seal from the toner hopper, replacing it with a new seal assembly that connects the toner hopper to the developer roller housing, reattaching the waste bin, and then reattaching the end caps with quick disconnect clips or clamps.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for repairing or remanufacturing a toner cartridge which includes a drum shutter and a toner cartridge body. The drum shutter includes a flexible covering portion attached to both an arm element and the toner cartridge body. The flexible covering portion is removed from the arm element and the toner cartridge. A replacement flexible covering portion is secured to the arm element. The replacement flexible covering portion is attached to the toner cartridge body.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for replacing a spool cover attached to a spool casing of a laser toner cartridge. When installed on the laser toner cartridge, the spool cover covers a spool and seal sensing contacts located above an electrical trace. A method of replacing the spool cover includes separating the spool cover from the spool casing, replacing the electrical trace with a new electrical trace, attaching a pad to a bottom surface of the spool cover, and replacing the spool cover on the spool casing such that the pad forces the seal sensing contacts to come in contact with the electrical trace.
Abstract:
A flexible circuit board includes a plurality of discrete circuits for use with different types of rechargeable battery packs. Conductive traces formed on the circuit board include gaps which cause certain portions of the circuitry to be disconnected from the circuit rendering that portion of the circuit inactive. The process of bridging the gaps by attaching one or more components over the gaps causes the corresponding inactive portion of the circuit to be activated. By selectively activating certain portions of the circuit, a desired result is obtained.
