Remanufacturing the Xerox Phaser 3635MFP Toner Cartridge
by Mike Josiah and the Technical Staff · Summit Technologies · November 1, 2008 - page(s): 18-36
First released in August 2008, the Xerox Phaser 3635MFP printers are based on a 35ppm, 1200dpi engine. The first page out is rated at under nine seconds, and the monthly duty cycle is up to 75,000 pages. Both model printers are print, copy, scan, fax, and e-mail capable.These cartridges do not have a drum cover, and come new with a piece of heavy paper with foam glued to it taped around the cartridge.
There are both LY (5,000 pages) and HY (10,000 pages) cartridges available. Each version of cartridge has its own specific chip, but the cartridges themselves are identical. Methods to reset the OEM chips and/or new replacement chips should be available as you read this.
The chip covers are held in place by plastic rivets. To replace the chip, the rivets need to be cut off, holes carefully drilled, (not too deep or the cartridge will leak), and screws installed. This is definitely a cartridge where a reset box is the way to go.
The printers are Xerox Phaser 3635MFP/S and Xerox Phaser 3635MFP/X. The cartridges are LY cartridge 108R00793 (5,000 pages) and HY cartridge 108R00795 (10,000 pages).
Figure 1 shows the HY and LY cartridges, as you can see, they are identical so if you install the correct chip and toner load, you can easily make a LY a HY cartridge.
