    How to indicate the timing when the drum should be changed.

    Models: IRC/CLC 3200>3220>4080>5180>5185.

    IRC:USA MODEL.
    CLC:OVERSEAS MODEL.

    Symptom
    Want to show the timing when the drum should be changed.


    Cause
    The default settings (in service mode) of this product is as follows: Whether the degree of wear of the photosensitive drum is displayed or not --> not displayed, whether the drum unit is suspended when it has reached to the drum life --> not suspended. In other words, there is no indication available to encourage the user to change the drum unit.


    Items to Check
    The drum life can be checked in the following service mode.
    Service mode level 1 COPIER > DISPLAY > MISC > Y, M, C, K-DRM-LF
    Drum unit life (Y/M/C/K ) appropriate range is 0 to 100.



    Service mode level 2 >COPIER > OPTION > BODY> P-CRG-LF > Used to select operation performed when drum unit has reached end of service life.
    0: Don't stop
    1: Stop



    Field Remedy
    The default settings can be changed according to the following service mode:

    *Service mode level 1 COPIER > OPTION > BODY >DLIFE-SW

    Whether or not the degree of wear of the photosensitive drum is displayed.
    0: not displayed [factory setting/post-RAM clear value)]
    1: displayed (the degree of wear of the drum unit is displayed on user screen under 'System status' > 'Consumables'.

    *Service mode level 2 COPIER > OPTION > USER > P-CRG-LF
    Whether or not the drum unit is suspended when it has reached to the drum life.
    0: not suspended [factory setting/post-RAM clear value]
    1: suspended
    (Method 1) DLIFE-SW '1', P-CRG-LF '1'
    In the user screen, under 'System status' > 'Consumables', the degree of wear is shown in the form of a progress bar (showing the amount of life remaining). Also, a warning is given at 90% and a message 'Replace drum (all colors)' is shown at 100% and the machine will be suspended.
    (Method 2) DLIFE-SW '0', P-CRG-LF '1'
    In the user screen, under 'System status' > 'Consumables', the degree of wear is NOT shown in the form of a progress bar. Also, when the drum life reaches 100%, the error lamp flashes red and the machine will be suspended.
    (Method 3) DLIFE-SW '1', P-CRG-LF '0'
    In the user screen, under 'System status' > 'Consumables', the degree of wear is shown in the form of a progress bar (showing the amount of life remaining). Also, even when the drum life has exceeded 100%, the machine will not be suspended and still can be used.
    (Method 4) DLIFE-SW '0', P-CRG-LF '0' (default settings)
    In the user screen, under 'System status' > 'Consumables', the degree of wear is NOT shown in the form of a progress bar. Also, even when the drum life has exceeded 100%, the machine will not be suspended and still can be used.
