Thank you. But I do know how printers work. I say I'm not a Senior Tech, because I never checked that box or whatever when I first signed up. But to be truthful, I may very well be a senior tech. 6...

While printing today on this cheap little machine, I started losing cyan, although the software box on my computer said it still had 19%. So that brings up a question. Since the chip on the cartridge...

Wow, look how long this political thread has lasted. I hadn't been here in years. Just came on to say goodbye to my trusty HP5000. And see not one, but 2 threads of rants by the Lunatic Liberal Left....

No I was talking about the Laserjet 5000gn. I took the tray 1 guides off and could put out Baseline polyester laser plates at 12 1/2 x 19. I had this bootleg PPD (as far as I knew) that I dragged...

I hate to think it. It's been since 2003 that I got the machine to make my laserplates for my Hamada 700 printing press. It was used at that time. I really don't know how old it really is. But my...

Thank you for your help. I appreciate it sincerely. But I don't seem to be clear that everything is clean and correct. Proper HP toner. Hearkening back to my first post, I made sure of these things...

All counts are correct. Everything's spotless. Without correct items, my post would have no basis.

HP Laserjet 5000, running in PS. Thank you.

My trusty HP 5000 just will not lay down a coat of ink heavy enough any more. Firstly, it should be known that I am versed in its operation and menus. It's on ink setting 5, not on economode, and the...

"End of life"? Is that like when Windows XP support stopped, but I still use it? Or does it mean no toner or supplies will be made for it, or what? What do you mean "end of life"? Seems like it's...

I've got a wishful but probably hopeless question. It seems the drums on my notorious Konica C-500 has a voracious appetite for drums. Seems like every time I turn around I have to fork up for a new...

Found my problem. Sorry to bother you all. It was a weird one. The laser glass was cloudy, but what is so strange is that it took many wipings with windex on a paper towel to clear it. The other 3...

Well here we are again on more C-500 problems. I'm not sure anybody will even answer me on this dog of a machine. So, I've changed the Cyan developer, and now we have SC29-21 which points to drum...

I have resolved the error I referenced. Toner density sensor is the correct answer.

Referencing the post #2 by imaginGuru in 2009, the choices under the key operator position only go up to #20. There is no 21.

I am bringing up this old thread because of a KM C-500 SC 27-03. The post above by a field supervisor says a corona wire may not be seated properly. But the service manual says that the cyan unit...

Bringing up an old thread with a question. It's May12 and it's back to some serious heat in my non-air conditioned house. Coult this error just be a normal condition from a C-500 idling several...

Hello
And thank you for answering. I've owned and used the machine a couple years. I had another identical one before that which was pure trouble to the point it practically made a self-taught...

I've replaced a drum on my Bizhub C500 and did the 3-6 mode adjustments as described in another thread on this site. One of the adjustments called for is Automatic Gamma Adjustment. But it seems like...

Gotta watch those EBAY PM kits. One of them has 2 waste bottle containers, and a couple of long looking thingies, and they call that a PM kit. What a joke. Heck, I've poured out the waste botte box...

Lord, I hoe you're right. Thanks you, friend. Thank you. PM, I can do. I can buy that junk on EBAY and install it like an expert. I can go into 25 and 36 mode and tell the machine what I've done. But...

Well this is a Konica Minolta Bizhub color C-500, and I have been on this forum and read a lot of the service manual, and have done a lot of my own service. I can change all those parts, and have...

Are you telling me that this thing DOES NOT shut down and refuse to print? That it will just go on wanting all this stuff, but will keep running anyway? I always thought there was a magic number and...

OK then. About how much does it cost to have a technician drive 40 miles out to the boondocks to somebody's house and make the machine right again? And once done, how many impressions before it goes...

Uh-oh, is this the time I've been dreading? I have a Konica C-500 I've had pretty good use out of since buying it used a couple years ago. But just now I sent another job from the computer and the...
