Looking for any assistance in getting back the network tab on the C550. I found one article on here regarding my situation (http://www.copytechnet.com/forums/konica-minolta/79329-bizhub-c352-missing-tab-network-setting-2.html) which referenced this image found here (http://www.copytechnet.com/forums/attachments/konica-minolta/27544d1420200399-bizhub-c352-missing-tab-network-setting-c352-network-tab-jpg) however, when attempting to use the arp -s command, I always get returned bad argument. I have printed the Configuration Page and confirmed that I have the correct mac and the IP is matches what is displayed in the Configuration Page. Is there any other way to correct this?
Regards,
Jason

After doing so more research it looks like my last resort is to obtain the NVRAM Reset Tool and perform the NIC Reset? Question is where do I find this firmware/software? Do I need to buy it? Any help would be appreciated.

Did you try to reset the network settings in the service mode?

Where would I do this at? I have performed an initialization, but never saw a screen regarding the network settings.

You're right it's not there, I just checked on a C550. The newer ones have the individual settings you can initialize. :(

Had a copier tech come out, after about 2 hours he determined he need the firmware after trying everything that I had already done. He wasn't sure if he still had the firmware since they don't service MK anymore but he thought he knew someone that might have it. :confused: Anyone know of a copier tech in San Diego area that can service this machine or even better provide me firmware?

you need more than the magical firmware - you need a suitable compact flash card 128-256mb will do it and obviously a reader/writer and the software.

Someone should have the kit to do it - i still have it in my car yet have used it only once in the last 2 years. dying generation of machine now...

I have either progressed or regressed... I was able to obtain a 128mb card, did a hex edit of 00's on it and loaded it using FIT with Mosel2_cf.tar.gz. After doing the reset I received the page asking for entering serial numbers. Is this normal? From what documentation I had found it did not mention this. Where do I find the serial numbers? Just look at each item for the serial number or is there something more to it? In a prior thread on here it was mentioned to someone else with a different model to look at the service manual. I have the bizhub C550 service manual 2008.06 Ver. 8.0 and I was unable to find any information regarding this. Any help in directing me would be appreciated.

The serial number it wants is the MFP serial number. It's on the back of the machine, you can enter it in Service mode: System 1, Serial Number input, select printer and enter it there. The rest are up to you if you want to enter them. You may have to do the Installation procedure as well if you get the "lines of shame"(color lines) on color copies.
