Mpc3002 fiery e-3300 not booting up , print, scan disabled ??

[fshead]

GREETINGS..
I buy and sell end of lease returns and have been offered this unit.
The last fiery i set up and service was on the 6513 dinosaur.
What should i check when i inspect this machine?
if the hard drive was pulled is it pretty generic to reinstall software?
also if i cant get the fiery up,does the machine still come with print,scan installed?
thanks in advance

THANKS but i couldnt find anything using ricoh model code e-3300.
are these units just glorified mini pcs?
And is onboard print,nic and scan the only way they come?

If the MPC3002 came with the fiery, then the print scan is disabled. It may not even be in the machine, you would have to get that seperately. If the hdd is missing, in can be replaced and the fiery software reloaded.

You can remove & disable the fiery & use the machine without it.

An MPC3002 with a Fiery is a complete waste of time anyway!

I am just confirming there is no expensive "dongle" like they used in the old 6513 colors from over 10 yrs ago.
im kool with popping in HD as long as that is all.
I have not seen said unit and usually buy over email by meter and configuration.
Why the bad rap on the 3002 fiery?is it the machines lack or the fiery?
sometimes customers want an extra "toy" to play with..

Im my experience a fiery on an old 3002 doesnt really improve performance or notable image quality.
Only really of use in a Mac environment.
Also factor in the age of this model its one more item to fail!

I dont sell to high graphics type places and only sell lease returns with low meters.
I am going to see this machine to find out why print/scan is
disabled..if i have to get print/scan sd card then i will pass on it..

The machine will be configured for use with a fiery, read the manual, remove the fiery & you will have a "normal" MPC3002 that will print & scan.

I can only assume that said machine came back to warehouse with fiery disconnected.
I use to read thru all the ricoh manuals but they have just became way too lengthy...
and like most here as i finally master a model,a new one comes out and we start anew.
