Do you know how to replace pf filter kit 1 on brother mfc 8860dn? I have looked at the manual and scoured the internet. No luck. If you can show me step by step, I will make a video as there are currently no videos on how to do so and the manual just says to call brother if the alert is on the printer.
The message 'Replace PF Kit 1' will appear on the display when the machine has printed 100,000 pages. The PF Kit 1 (Paper Feeding Kit 1) is a periodic maintenance item. The machine will continue to work with the message on the display. Brother says Replacement of the PF Kit 1 is not recommended to be installed by the customer. Anyway... There is a procedure to reset this message: 1) Turn off printer 2) Press and hold menu button and turn on. Keep holding button until you see maintenance on display. 3) Press 88. This brings up parts replacement menu. 4) Press Up arrow until you see the part you replaced (laser, fuser, pf kit1, pf kit mp). 5) Press the OK button. 6) Power off and restart printer. Following this procedure above, you "say" to the machine it has a new PF kit. And the message will stop appearing. But the PF kit inside is still the old one, and paper jams or other feed-related problems may occur more frequently. However, if you have the spare part needed (i think you will need part with part number LM5140001 - Cassette Pickup / Feed Roller Assembly, or LS1030001 - Feed Roller Assembly ADF) and want to replace it by your own you should follow disassembly instructions in the service manual. You can find service manual for your model for instance here: www.moroinformatica.it/files/articles/docs/BROTH/MFC-8460N_SERVICE%20MANUAL.pdf After changing the spare part do not forget to complete the reset procedure above, to "say" to the machine it is changed with a new one. LM5140001 is the feed roller assy for paper in the tray. LS1030001 is feed roller assy for the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) - when you put originals to copy or scan on the top of the machine. What we do here in our company ? When we have a machine with this error message we have a visual inspection of the feed rollers. If they are not so worn out, and still can be used we just make a reset procedure and refurbish the rollers using a specific liquid for cleaning and restoring grip of all types of rubber rollers - Platenclene spray, you can see it here: arbikas.com/product-p-platenclene-100-ml-pcl100-v1.html . This spray restores rubber roller flexibility and reduces paper jams. You can also clean feed rollers with some alcohol, but platenclene is specialized spray and gives better results.
Después de reemplazar físicamente la nueva unidad de tambor, debe realizar el procedimiento descrito en este clip para restablecer la máquina y reconocer la unidad de tambor como nueva.
Sorry for bad translation, using google translate: ¿Algún mensaje de error en la pantalla de la impresora? ¿Qué comando intentas? Por favor, dé una descripción detallada completa de lo que está tratando de hacer.
Sorry, phone camera was affected by surrounding light, but still video is understandable in full screen mode + we have added detailed subtitles with instructions. We will make our best to post better quality videos for future. Thank you.
Thank you!
