I have a Konica Minolta C364 with the following error code PRT/IR Error L-1 L2 L-3 - Does anyone know what is wrong and how to fix it?

Life stop on you machines is set.
Means parts are out of recommended life.
Are you a tech? Info is in the manual.

I am not a tech - I purchased the machine to print our church bulletin. Is there a way to disable life stop?

end users should not monkey around with programming or firmware updating. Go buy service from a qualified Tech. Parts need to be replaced for a reason.

REPLACE THE DAMN PARTS!

that message is put into the firmware to PREVENT future damage to the unit and insure COPY/PRINT quality.
Get a SERVICE MANUAL if you don't want to PAY for the knowledge a Qualified Tech can bring to the table.

As a church i would highly recommend a service contract for the machine.
Cutting corners here is going to cost a lot more in the long run.
FYI life stop on these machines is disabled(not switched on) by default.
Get a tech to disable it for you.

Thanks for the polite reply. Can you guide me to the location of a SERVICE MANUAL?

Not a lot of polite guys here if you don't take the advice.
Sure someone here will sell you one. That would be stolen property.

Re: PRT/IR Error L-1 L2 L-3

You need to replace the drums after its been triggered.
Get a tech out.
Ask him about replacing the chips and turning life stop off.

Or bite the bullet and buy C M Y K drums to replace.
Where did you get the error message from?
On the machine panel?

On the display panel. I already ordered the chips for the drums. I just need to figure out how to turn the life stop off. Google is not being very friendly when it comes to the service manual. Thanks for your help.

I don't know HOW to explain it better to you......

DO NOT RUN THE MACHINE WITH EXPIRED PARTS!


those chips will reset the counts ONLY the worn parts will still be in the machine!
EXPIRED PARTS - T R O U B L E!

HAVE YOU thought about posting your manual request here? NOPE you have not....

if you cannot figure out how to find simple answers .. how do you expect to handle difficult issues.... IF you prove to US techs here that you are not able/willing to do things the PROPER WAY...
you will find people LESS willing to help.
