Ricoh D1176256 (D117-6256) placă electrod descărcare

The Ricoh D1176256 discharge electrode plate is a genuine OEM component engineered to neutralise residual charge on the photoconductor drum, a critical step for maintaining crisp, streak-free output. Unlike generic aftermarket plates that can cause ghosting or premature drum wear, this plate is built from a conductive metal alloy to Ricoh’s exacting tolerances and is validated across a wide range of Aficio MP C and IM C colour multifunction printers.

Highlights

• Genuine Ricoh part (D1176256) for guaranteed fit and performance.
• Restores proper discharge of the photoconductor drum, eliminating background fog and image defects.
• Compatible with Ricoh Aficio MP C2003/C2004/C2503/C2504/C3003/C3004/C3503/C3504/C4503/C4504/C5503/C5504/C6003/C6004 and IM C2000/C2500/C3000/C3500/C4500/C5500/C6000.
• Constructed from durable conductive metal alloy for long service life.
• Critical maintenance item for imaging unit or transfer unit overhaul.

In daily use

When this plate wears or becomes contaminated, prints may show uneven density, toner smearing, or repeated image ghosting. Installing a fresh Ricoh D1176256 restores the electrostatic balance inside the imaging unit, allowing the drum to be fully discharged before the next cycle. Service technicians and advanced users will appreciate the precise fit—no filing or bending required—and the confidence that comes from using an OEM component rather than a third-party substitute. Professional installation is recommended, as the plate resides inside the imaging/transfer unit and requires careful handling to avoid damage to the drum surface.
