One Drum, Dual Compatibility Simplifying OPC Drum for Sharp MX-260

Latest company news about One Drum, Dual Compatibility Simplifying OPC Drum  for Sharp MX-260

Although copier maintenance generally has many aspects to consider when providing the most effective solutions to a copier's maintenance problems, a technician's efficient service will be hampered by slight variances in the hardware. One commonly known problem that many technicians experience when servicing Sharp's MX-260 Series is the difference in compatibility between newer model drums and older model drums; this has been a constant challenge to technicians.

The Challenge - Incompatible Holes
There are two principal specifications for drums used with the Sharp MX-260 Series.
Old Model Drum Specifications - MX-213 (Small Hole)

Therefore, in order to service both types of MX-260 Series Copiers, a provider must maintain a double inventory of parts. When a technician arrives at the customer site with the wrong part for their copier, they will incur not only the cost of wasted travel time, but will also increase the downtime of the machine, thus resulting in additional costs associated with logistics. Moreover, leasing companies with mixed fleets have to deal with the additional complications associated with tracking which specific SKU of which type of machine requires which particular drum.

To address the issues associated with using two different types of drums on the Sharp MX-260 Series, Honhai has developed a high-performance Long-Life OPC Drum, paired with a Specialized Universal Pin. This new technical improvement brings a significant change in how you manage the maintenance of your Sharp Copier fleet.

1. "One-Size-Fits-All" Design
The proprietary Universal Pin developed by Honhai allows a single OPC Drum to be used on either the MX-213 (Small Hole) or MX-237 (Large Hole) designs for the MX-260 Series Copiers.
Broad Application - This solution can be used on over 20 cameras, including the Sharp AR5626, AR5731, MX-M236N, and MX-M315N.
100% Adaptation Rate - Every installation of an Honhai Long-Life OPC Drum provides a perfect fit, with an installed rate of up to 60% reduction in rework.

2. Reduced Costs and Improved Efficiency
Standardizing your Components with Honhai's Universal Drum solution provides immediate financial benefits:
Reduced Inventory - You will only need to stock one type of OPC Drum to support the entire Sharp MX-260 Series; thus reducing your inventory costs by 50% and freeing up valuable space in your warehouse.
Faster Service - Technicians will be able to respond to any MX-260 series call with full confidence that they will have the correct part regardless of the year of production.

3. One Source for All Your Copier Consumables
Honhai can be the source of all your consumables for Sharp Copiers, NOT just the Long-Life OPC Drums. In addition, Honhai offers a complete line of high-quality replacements for the following items:
Toner Cartridges
IBT Belts
Cleaning Blades
Fuser Films and Waste Toner Boxes

If your Service Team is going to be hampered by the technical variations associated with servicing the Sharp MX-260 Series, you should use Honhai's Universal Drum Solution to standardize the maintenance of all of your Sharp MX-260 Series Copiers, respond quickly to repair calls, and improve your profit margins.
