My Sharp AL-1361 Copier prints the sides of my pages very blurrily

Thank you all so much for showing interest in this particular solution! If you’re reading this, we’ve been working on a Sharp AL-1361 that’s been printing sides rather bleary.

We’ve already tried anything in our power, such as replacing the toner and the entire unit with new ones. We’ve tried working with both new pieces, as well as with one new and one used article. So far, we’ve had the exact same print quality issues. We’d be very greateful for your help.

Please explain this procedures in an easy way, so this solution can remain in yoreparo.com for othe users’ needs.

Solution to this problem:

Thank you all so much for collaborating on this particular issue and solving this case in a communal effort. This is clearly the best possible way of coming up with a solution, since some of you have knowledge in certain areas others ignore.

Obviously, whoever’s asking this question lacks the information necessary. Please be very specific about the terms you’re using, and thank you very much for the information you’re supplying.

Solution to this problem:

In order to solve this problem, we had to go all the way to the laser unit. This is the light that shines inside the scanner, the unit responsible for copying an image and turning it into text later on. The copier itself was in perfect shape regarding toner, toner developer, cylinder, etc.

However, the problem lied on the image it was actually receiving and copying. The copies didn’t come out properly because the printer wasn’t able to see the images well, all this due to a bit of filth that was getting in the way of the mirrors. The laser unit had to be dismounted entirely to clean each and every one of the mirrors inside it.

This process must be done with extreme care and using very delicate materials, since the mirrors are clearly very delicate.

Here is a picture of the mirrors you must clean inside the laser unit:

My Sharp copier prints blurry on top of the page

Sharp copiers are, as we’ve said in previous posts, one of the better ones in the market, and the best purchase you can make as a small-business owner.

This is a Multifunction printer-copier that works with long lasting toners. Almost all Sharp printer-copiers work with the same toner, of course, but we’re referring specifically to the Sharp AL-2040CS one. This is a high-yield device, the scanner is great and it’s also an excellent Multifunction printer-copier.

We recommend you visit Sharp’s official website to learn of any specifications on this same printer model, the one this entire post has been created for.

As we were saying, this printer has been having this exact problem. This link will allow you to see a picture on Google Docs of how the blurry-start-of-page problem looks like. Our pages were coming out exactly as the one shown in the picture, showing up in one of our work printers. We decided to address this issue from every possible angle: changing the cylinder and the toner, opening the printer from the back and observing the entire printing process.

We did anything and everything we knew had done to other printers in our workshop, but we were still missing the mark. Since this was our first time dealing with this problem, we took things slowly and decided to work on the printer every other day with the hope of finding a solution.

In the end, we’re all human beings and ignore some of the cases that may come our way. Solutions usually involve more than one person, since there’s always someone else who knows much more than us about certain aspects.

This next piece of information came to me when I posted a thread on yoreparo.com, a great blogging community where you can find a solution for almost any problem, no matter how big or small it is. We started this thread called “Sharp AL2040CS copies’ are very blurry in one end”, and many answers followed. In the beginning, people proposed the same fixes we’d tried in the past like changing the toner or checking the toner developer, which obviously didn’t answer us.

However, one person did provide us with an actual solution, which was:

“clearly your laser’s mirrors are dirty or the crown thread has torn.”

We didn’t understand all these terms, so we asked our helper what they meant. He showed a lot of confidence when explaining things to us, and made us feel certain of his answer. What he told us about this piece is the following:

"the thread or colotron unit is found inside the crown, which is located in the lateral gate on the right side of the printer."

One of its ends could be out of place: you may be able to see the slots it rests on. The machine will also have another crown, the loading one, but this one’s inside the cylinder. If you’ve already replaced the entire cylinder, then this second crown doesn’t have anything to do with the problem. Good luck and greetings!”

Then, we started looking for this same piece, the crown, and took advantage of the help we received. In the following picture, we’ll show you what the crown looks like.

Based on the information we got from our helper back at the yoreparo.com forum, we were able to locate the broken piece: it’s a small thread that can be seen in the inside of this other piece found on the gate. You can’t really appreciate it in the picture since it’s so fine, but it’s similar to a knitting thread.

We recommend you treat this filament very delicately, given the case it’s actually broken and you need to lay a new one in. In our case, it wasn’t completely broken, but our printer did have a torn piece.

As we can see in the previous picture, the broken piece has already been replaced and everything looks great. Our situation was a bit more complicated, so here’s another picture of this piece’s former state.

As you can see, the part highlighted in red is broken right at the bracket. As days went by, this caused the crown thread we mentioned to tear just like this.

This left us with only one solution: replacing it for a new one. Luckily for us, we have a few printers that haven’t been in working conditions for a while, but that happened to have this exact piece in perfect shape. Therefore, we were able to replace this thread with a new one.

The fixed area of our copier looks like this:

Everything will seem to work perfectly even when this problem is in full effect, so it could continue to damage important parts of the printer in the process. We recommend you fix this issue quickly in order to avoid bad news and bigger expenses.

Please keep in mind the information supplied in this document doesn’t belong to the printer’s manufacturer, but is based on on our personal experience as techs.

This technique has worked for us so we decided to share it. In case you know of any other solution, please post it in the comment section below.

Solving the E7 error, subcode E7-11, on Sharp AL-2030 copiers

This post will teach you all to need to know about eradicating the E7-11 error message on Sharp AL-2030 copiers in four easy steps.

Even when this is the best copier out there at the moment, it can also have its own problems. The way you use a device can compromise its functioning and payoff; in this case, not using this article and leaving it saved somewhere for a long while can have the same effect on the copier.

We looked this error up in the Sharp Trouble Error & Codes manual, where we found a solution for this same issue. It’s very important you identify the error subcode on your Sharp copier since, as you can see, there are multiple errors inside the E7 error message column. While these depend on it, each code is related to one function, one problem and one solution for it.

Steps to follow to eradicate this issue:

According to the manual, this error originates in the scanner’s lamp, or in the scanner’s roller, which could be jammed.

Step 1.

Clean the scanner’s lamp as softly as possible, keeping it from harm; it’s a very delicate bulb, so keep this in mind. We suggest you use paper napkins for this, and a small vacuum or blow dryer to clean out all paper residues that may be found inside it. If anything is left inside the lamp, it will appear on every single copy you may produce.

Step 2:

Grease up the scanner’s roller located in the scanning sector; it will allow it to move from one side to the other.

Step 3:

After this procedure has been  finished, turn the scanner on. It will show the F5 error message, which indicates the crystal is now loose. This is okay since we’re actually working inside the scanner. In case you don’t want this error message to appear, simply place the crystal back on the scanner. We, however, recommend you put this off if the E7 error persists.

Step 4.

Finish everything up and place every piece back where it came from before proceeding to test the device. Every issue must have cleared up by now.

This post shows only one solution to this problem, which doesn’t mean this is the one and only fix. If you know of any other one, please post it in a comment in the section below this post.
