Ricoh MP 2554

[dan7777]

We were bought by a company who services Ricoh. I had a call for a MP 2554. One of our techs went to the school the company has and he sent me a D197 manual. I wanted to get into service mode but the manual says
Entering SP Mode
For details, ask your supervisor
Anyone have the time to tell me how to get in service mode? I have seen that in manuals before and I think it is stupid they do that. Thanks.


Press Reset 802186 then hold Clear.

I believe that Ricoh changed the key sequence and left the new sequence out of the service documentation in order to keep untrained individuals from entering SP mode and causing problems.

Press the Reset (Yellow) key
3. On the number pad enter 8 0 6 1 8 2
4. Press and Hold the C key Bam... you are in SP Mode

unless in user tools the service lock is on. Then you will need to turn it off first.

COPIERMAN, he found the solution. See the edit note at the end of his post.
