I agree plus I think it's not really OK to rip off money with copyright infringements at all or does he have official agreements with the manufacturer? Doesn't really matter because this should be a place where techs can help each other out - I'n never point somebody to a site that's probably selling SM illegaly.
@topic:
It's most definetly the PSU - I tried to fix the broken one with a new diode, didn't worked for me - probably there was more stuff blown in that specific case but it's worth a try before buying a pricey PWB.
If you can browse into the machine, check if a polygon mirror error is displayed. If it is you need to replace the polygon & possibly also the PSU

AZ24 0150 comes up in my Ricoh Dealer Parts List as a complete power supply.
I didn't think Ricoh delt in fiddly little parts like a single diode.

I double checked and that is the part number for the diode on the 220v PSU. Can you check the cost, it should show a low price for that part (at least in relation to the entire PSU). The part number I have listed for the EU/AA PSU is AZ24 0110 (NA is AZ24 0109). And normally yes, Ricoh wouldn't supply an individual part like this. But being that this part has a high failure, it's a lot cheaper just replace this component using the skills that a field tech has (big enough to get our fat fingers on and soldering 3 points. A smaller component or surface mount would necessitate replacing the entire power supply I'm sure).
Hmm, I think there is a bit of a problem with the original Ricoh RTB that iMind quoted.
My Spare Parts Manual tells me that I need a AZ24 0110 PSU cct bd but there is a link to a Mod Bulletin, MB222055, that says that PSU has been up graded and its new number is AZ24 0150. Also the the price list says a AZ24 0150 is worth $600. No mention of a diode anywere.

Im a hunting a couple of the diodes as well. AZ24 0110 has been superceeded by AZ24 0150 (POWER SUPPLY UNIT:494W:EU/AA:A) on our parts list. What does ricoh descibed the diode as, might be able to find it through that.
