PCR Ultracoat

IBM/Lexmark PCR Ultracoat

KLE has developed conductive PCR Ultracoat designed specifically for the IBM/Lexmark PCRs used in the 4039, 4049, and Optra printers. The Lexmark printers have a PCR that is covered with a dry powder coating that comes off during a printing cycle exposing a tacky surface that offsets onto the OPC drum, causing multiple back lines to appear on the print. The tacky offset attacks the OPC drum causing failure of the OPC coating which cannot be removed.

KLE has developed PCR Ultracoat which coats and seals the PCR with a conductive coating that creates a smooth hard surface providing more charge to the OPC while eliminating all the image quality problems with the PCR. The coated PCR is better than the OEM and will not fail during the life of the cartridge.

We have made PCR Ultracoat in order that it can be easily applied onsite without the need to ship it out for coating. This coating can be applied with or without a lathe. Curing time is less than 1 hour at which time it is ready to use. Cost per PCR is less than 20 cents.

Application Directions

Step 1: Pre-clean PCR with IP Stripper removing the tan coating completely from the PCR. Keep the lint free applicator moist at all time so it does not stick to the PCR. The PCR should now be a translucent amber color.

Step 2: Once the PCR is dry you may coat the PCR by dip coating it or coating it with a lathe applicator.

Step 3: Let dry for an hour away from a dusty area.

Step 4: After curing take the PCR and buff it with a dry lint free cloth. This will remove any crystallization that may have formed on the surface during the curing.

Step 5: The PCR is now ready to install. The surface will be smooth and tack free.
