Hi, you have to press Meter Count and then the classic procedure to enter Service Mode.


Try disabling HDD and see if it continues to give the error.

There are only certain CF card brands & size that will work. And card "cannot" be formated. If you format card it will definitely not work!

Re: Help Bizhub 253!

Agree with copyman - you have to find CF card that will work and that's not so easy.

You ideally need a 128mb compact flash card, although a 256mb will also work. Anything larger than 256mb will not work

Re: Help Bizhub 253!

The best I remember using was "sandisk" brand 64 or 128mb. Should be able to find on ebay but I wouldn't take a chance with used because it will most likely be formatted to remove the sellers data, photos, etc.

I still get weezy thinking about loading F/W in that model. Never new what you were going to get when attempting it

Concerning card size, had a similar issue on Xerox machines. Found a small software called BOOTICE that i could use to partition a memory card/usb stick. In order to write/update firmware on certain Xerox machines, you have to use max 2gb usb drives which you can't find anymore. Used this program to partition a 16gb usb drive, made a 2gb partition, copied the firmware files and voila, updates/upgrades worked. Tested on several equipments, worked like a charm. Maybe it will help you too if you try to make a partition of a required size on a bigger cf card. Cheers.

Been there, done that. I partitioned a half gig CF card to 128mb so it only read as 128mb when plugged into card reader. It was still not recognised be the C353.
These machines are very picky when it comes to CF cards.

Re: Help Bizhub 253!

on those CF card ones, such nonsense and heartache.
i started doing it via FTP to my laptop and it works. just a long ass file name to type.
thank god they are discontinued, havent done one in a dozen years and never will again.

the last one i bought was from a camera place in Hoboken for 15.00 you cant even find them under a gigabyte nowadays.
