I agree, and don't forget the filters on the Toner Hopper assy. 1 On side and 3 on the bottom, behind cover. I believe there are three under the Right cover of main machine as well.

2 thing will help with this. There is a new firmware update for the adf that addresses DF jam 63, which is double feeding. and also there is a pad on the front edge of the lower plate that has the...
There is a bulletin on this. It has to do with the eject belt getting out of time. Hard to explain without pics.
I have fought this problem many times, and , and your problem actually lies in the toner supply side. The Toner pumps fail or become clogged by toner, also, the toner cartridges are often...
You should also check sp 3010-1 thru 4 and make sure they match the label on the front to the black pcu. I have seen these missing before. You may also want to install the custom firmware which...
I completely agree. I work on these all day long, and I have gotten various 400 codes many times after servicing the PCU's or ITB. Now, after I do either, I run a few internal test prints of each...
Do any motors come on and turn? Is the Fuser Heating up? Did the Operation Panel get connected properly?
One thing to check is the connection between the BCU board and the IOB2 Board. ...
Make sure that the replacement motor has an all black outer case...This is the updated, improved motor. The original ones are all white. Replaced many of these for the 569 code..
It is a long shot, but I would try and disconnect the Hard Drive, then boot it up. If you can get into service mode, perform a sp5832-002 Hard Drive clear IMH with the HDD disconnected. Then...
Yes. I concur. Once you think the unit is empty, stand it on end with the fill port down and lightly tap with your screwdriver handle up and down the base of Dv unit and all around where the...
The only thing I would add is only dump, fill and initialize one developer at a time. Do not run 3801-1, 3801-2, 3811-1 or 3811-2. If only developer is changed, go the 3801-3 to 3801-6 route....If...
If the motor makes no attempt to drive whatsoever, I would next test the voltage going to the motor, when the machine is starting up. Since there is no physical bind, I think you are on the right...
Most likely, you have a damaged ITB belt, or possibly a flipped blade on the ITB cleaner assembly. Either way, the ITB belt is not turning, fast enough, or at all. Both encoders are seeing the...
I have begun to run into this more recently as well. At least 4 times now in the last several weeks, and it does appear to be caused ozone buildup on the black PCU. In each case so far,...
Set Sp 5051-001 to a 1 and power cycle the machine.....No more nag about Independent Toner.....
Since you have already replaced developer, my next guess would be something with the primary transfer roller, or the Power Pack inside the ITB... The rollers get impacted with toner and the transfer...
I don't think that is practical.. Too many files. Do you not have access to the TSRC website?
I have not seen a need to mess with the excess developer auger. I upgrade all the firmware with the latest version straight from Ricoh. I do all the firmware, not just the engine.
Well, I work almost exclusively on these models, and have tried a number of things to reduce the toner dropping, and charge roller lines. I do believe that a combination of things are in play, so I...
From the troubleshooting guide FOR SC455 (I think the meant 445): AS 455 relates to PTR

My team experienced this very problem, and went a few rounds trying to resolve it. Finally, the Developer Drive Motor for black and the driver board fixed our ongoing problem....
Great addition. I'm not sure I have done the base plate mod before. What does that consist of?
Excellent Cheat sheet...Thank You.
I have made it into a PDF.
They were power cycled several times through the testing phases.
Just an update, as I suspected, the new Ricoh copiers installed in the same spot, and on the same network scanned fine by simply...
Today He told Me they are getting a quote on upgrading all their copiers, and we might just as well hold off on the troubleshooting.
I believe they are staying with us though....
