Its not that big a deal, but you will want to have a new "spring clutch" on hand. I tend to replace both trays "spring clutches" whilst im there. It usually takes about an hour. Its the spring and...

Check Sp mode 1151 values 2 3 & 4. Some machines where sent out with the INITIAL value incorrect (somewhere around 2,500 instead of approx 500 to 800). I had on that was correctly set to its intial...
It will almost certainly be the IH inverter board, behind cover to the right of the fuser assy.
I have seen it many times, and have found in most cases I have had to replace both coro assy and that actual drum. I think it is not moisture but some sort of ozone gas issue causing a reoccuring...
I have used both in either model. Only difference I can see is that you have to make sure the little loop wire on the upper rear connector assy matches the model type - justbswap one end of the loop...
I havent seen seen it personally, but I have heard of it and apparently in most cases it is a corrupt Nvm value associated with the Cis, might be worth running thru these values first looking for one...
On the left side panel is a red switch, turn this switch off.
Extremely common fault on this range. There are bulletins with dozens of Sp mode changes and this issue is mentioned in firmware. However even when all these measures are applied this is still very...
These all seem much the same thru the range up to and including the MPCxxx2 series. You just need to swap the top covers of the assy over and it should go right in no problems. The belts are all the...
[QUOTE=Killeromantic;493199]Hello I started to clean the optical drive of a spc820 Ricoh laser to remove and clean the mirrors and reassemble the inaccuracies I are blurred.
It seems to me that...
Check the photointeruptor on the rear of the itb assy that checks the poistion of the blue transfer handle. These can become dislodged etc.
You will almost certainly need to replace the Y dev mix, and to be honest probably a hell of a lot more than that. Unless you REALLY know what your doing here this will end badly.
Not a fan of the package firmware. It seems quicker - and it is....because it only updates main frame firmwares, so adf, finishers etc are not updated. I have stopped using it for this reason. Whats...
I think the Usb/Sd option box for the models you are talking about is only for allowing scanning to Usb/Sd card. I could be wrong here, but I have not seen these earlier models support printing from...
Most likely its the sensors upper left side behind small upper cover that detect fuser and ferrite rotation. Replace with the modified types Aw020190. 15 minute job.
Little blue handle needs to be in downwards position when loading devs, you get this message if its in the raised position (put it back up when reinstalling hopper). Its possible the sensor that...
The fuser has a link wire accross 2 pins at the rear upper connector on the fuser itself. My bet is you have a problem on the fuser connector top rear just under the plastic top lid. Also note this...
Mpc 5501 are in my opinion best colour midrange mfd that Ricoh has made to date, super reliable easy to fix and parts run to PM and then usually way past.
You are most likely going to have to remove the entire drive assy ( done this many times before due to gear failure). Its a big job with a lot to remove. First time it took me about 4 hours all up,...
Seen a lot of this, although usually the first drum to get these strange sticky marks in my experience is the Y drum. Only happens to machines that have high volumes on the drums, so they are well...
"Surf the machine" and see if you can access Wim, then look for errors. (Key in mc Ip address into browser of connected pc).
There is! I just program in a 2 mm erase margin all round and set that as the default for scanning, dead easy. Gets rid of that pesky line on the very edge of some docs.
I cant recall where I read this, but I believe there has been some cases of random shut downs and sc codes due to a faulty mini usb lead that is under the control panel connecting the control panel...
100% Fuser, even if it looks perfect - thats the way they are.
as others have said, this model was very touchy with this problem. Make sure you are not overtoned on any colour, run all the colour mode calibrations. Model is very picky about paper quality with...
