    That might be true for a B/W but it is a whole new ball game when it comes to a color unit. It will require manual color alignment just to get it to where force line position does not fail. If you have never done one before, it can take 4 or 5 hours.

    I used to clean up & send out a lot of 2nd hand MPC2551 Models I did an all clear on every one never had any issues also on a few Metis models.

    Well if you like living on the edge and are willing to live with the consequences when it all goes horribly wrong. At the moment I have two MP C'03 in the workshop that don't even know their supposed to be a photocopier just because a tech got a little over enthusiastic and thought a memory wipe would solve their problems.
    At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.

    Just to confirm - what Slimslob says is true. A SP 5801-001 (Memory All Clear) WILL create a boat anchor or a glorified B&W copier out of a Colour copier if the Non Default settings are not re-input. I'm not sure what "Copier Tech" is referring to about executing SP5801 and not having any problems?

    Sounds like you need the panel config that we made for a tech here who likes to brick machines by loading the incorrect firmware

    Ok, so why specifically do you think doing an all clear makes the machine a “boat anchor” i’d be interested to hear, what issues do you believe you would have? i’m only speaking from personal experience never had an issue.
