    Eddy,

    Are you saying a firmware update may correct the way the 3002 reads the toner ? Which firmware, Engine ?

    Both Hytec and Nationwide board repair have not heard of this. Matt at Nationwide believes the NV ram on BCU may correct the programming, so we may use standard toner for the Reman MP C3002.

    I'll update with any solution

    Yes, that is what I have seen. If you look on the TSRC site for the firmware on this model you will notice the "Greenline" firmware is there. If the machine you have is a Ricoh remanufactured box, this could very well be the resolution.

    Thanks Eddy,

    Just to be clear, So I update the Recon Ricoh MP C3002 with the standard MP C3002 Firmware to make it accept Standard 841647 Black toner ?

    My current problem is the Ricoh Recon MP C3002 will ONLY accept Black 842201 Ricoh C3502p / C5502p toner. I need to convert this box to regular toner. (color toners are all the same standard)

    I think you are correct. You should simply get the toner for your box, the firmware will only permit the black toner intended for the reman machines. Sorry for my mistake.

    You should simply get the toner for your box,
    AND if you want to rid yourself of the "wrong toners" i will gladly accept it and make a way to use it

    You can't. For the Greenline Ricohs there is special Engine firmware, and special parts(developer mostly). You *might* get away with changing both the entire PCDU, vacuuming out the entire system, uploading the correct firmware.... and it still might not work. Attached is the Ricoh bulletin:

    Well I didn't know that.

    The USA modified their MP C3002/C3502 Greenline range to take a higher melting point K toner formula.

    Interesting, wonder why they decided to do that?
    Fusing performance issues?
