Canon iR-C3326i download mode (2/8 boot)

[onlyinnewfoundland]

Hi everyone

We have received a few of these imagerunner c3326i machines in Canada. I believe they are not selling them (yet) in the USA, as there isn't anything listed on esupport for them, just on our Canada section.

I'm guessing they are probably sold for Latin American markets mainly.

The machine is essentially a DX 3900 body with a cheaper reversing ADF and a control panel with a home key, power save, stop and the counter button.

Nobody at Canon seems to know what you are supposed to do if you need to hold the 2/8 keys to boot from your USB firmware stick.

There are no hidden buttons on the back of the control panel like the DX series, and no number pad either.

What happens if the storage is busted? It looks like the manual says boot into safe mode using 2/8 method.

Any ideas?

I had to get into an imageclass mf 1127 that has a similar screen, of course the service manual says to contact your service company for service mode proceedure. On that display there are 2 hidden buttons along the bottom of the display, left of center is SP1, right of center is SP2. To enter service mode, press Home, unmarked SP1 key, unmarked SP2 key. press the volume button on left edge, press stop. I imagine there are hidden buttons on the screen...i don't know why the secret buttons.
