Re: biz 501

Hey Syn, you may be right. Been awhile but I seem to recall that. Last one I worked on was a 421 about 3 yrs ago. What I meant was as the drum counters click & drum wears doesn't the machine adjust the voltages to compensate for drum wear? Unless I misunderstood the poster said CQ was fine and only replaced the drum because of a scratch, and since he can't get into tech rep mode the "compensated" voltages would still be for that used drum, and maybe why the copies are light with the new drum. Just a thought throwing out there. Kind of a moot point with not being able to get into serv mode, this machine will never be able to perform well anyway.

and that damn toner bottle and hopper.

Ha-ha how true. This was one of K/M bad machines, not as bad as the EP4300/4301 but still BAD! All OEM's have a flop every now and then, unless of course you are Panasonic then all your machines were flops!

You mean by "to worry about counters" to use then during service to get informations about machines history or that they cause problems.
If it the first i don't mind about counters because i plan to replace this machine in close future but not now.
If by resetting nv ram, CE password cleared then how can i reset it?

resetting counters on some units will put the settings back to NEW CONSUMABLE status.

IF the parts are OLD/USED you will cause quality problems.
