Lexmark MX81 series - Scheduled Maintenance; Fuser Maintenance Kits; Identifying the Type of Fuser Used in the Printer; Replacing Fuser Maintenance Kits

Scheduled maintenance
The operator panel displays the message 80 or Scheduled Maintenance when it reaches certain page counts. It is
necessary to replace the appropriate maintenance kit at certain intervals to maintain the print quality and reliability of
the printer. If needed, reset the maintenance counter after performing scheduled maintenance.
Fuser maintenance kits
The printer stops printing when the fuser rated life is reached. At rated fuser life, a Fuser Maintenance Kit is required.
You must install the correct Fuser Maintenance Kit for the type of fuser that is installed in the printer. See “Identifying
the type of fuser used in the printer” on page 667.
There are multiple warnings to indicate that the fuser is nearing end of life and that a maintenance kit is required,
including error codes 80.0x, 80.1x, and 80.2x. If you receive error code 80.3x, the fuser has reached its rated life. The
printer will not continue until a maintenance kit is installed.
Replacing fuser maintenance kits
The operator panel displays the message 80 “Replace maintenance kit” at required maintenance intervals. You must
replace the fuser, transfer roller, pick roller, and separation roller at this interval to maintain the print quality and
reliability of the printer. The following fuser maintenance kits are available:
