    Turning off EOL messages on screen? c654

    Is it possible to turn off the warnings on the copy/scan screen the messages like L-1, L-2, L3, L4 - "PRT/IR Errors?"


    The few people that notice this "error" react like they think these machines are about to spontaneously combust!

    Thanks

    The only way is to upgrade with the version up firmware the C654 will then behave live a C654e.

      in service mode you must use combination 'stop 0 c' then go to 'life stop' and there you have everything

            Just undo these switches if it has no effect. Been some time since i needed them.

            Think SW51 HEX F0 is for life stop and SW55 HEX 0C is to disable on screen display.
            Not sure if you need a specific firmware version.
            Whatever

              Yes these are the "life stop settings" however you'll still have the L-xx warnings.

                I think you are correct.

                I will go ahead and try the switches Allen suggested by the end of the week, but I thought on these models, the switches weren't necessary. I know the cx50s needed special FW in conjunction with the switches. As noted, I already changed the stop - 0 - 9 option.

                  I am realizing that my SM is outdated, but I couldn't find anything about these codes at all...

                    I have heard that converting to "e" model can cause issues (but all the discussions has been very vague). Have you done this successfully/ do you recommend doing this?

                        We are using a traded in C754 for our office machine.
                        FW is GBS-M0 (iOption or version Firmware UP however you want to call it) as we use GMail.
                        Life stop Softswitches are: 51=F0; 55=0C
                        S-0-C / Life Stop Settings: ALL are OFF
                        System2 / Unit Change / Near Life: All are set to Do Not Display

                        All Image Units, K drum & dev & Transfer Belt have 0% life showing
                        and there are NO on-screen Life messages showing

                        For sure the Copy Quality is bad but works fine for scanning & receiving faxes

                          Yeah, I already had those switches and settings setup like that on two different c654s. I either forgot that I did this for the switches (somewhat unlikely), was done by the prior company that owned these (unlikely due to meter counts) OR when you change the Life Stop Settings and Near Life those switches are modified (my current theory, but did not test this).

                          I also tried changing the unit change in System 2 to "service" from "user" for IU/tranf belt/fuser/etc that didn't change anything (as expected). One oddity however, is that I had to do this once, exit SM, then do it again to make the change stick each time...

                          You need a special FW to use Gmail on these? That seems dumb being that cx50s could do Gmail without special FW

                            This series of FW is installed to provide support for new TLS & SHA levels for the non "e" machines.
                            As far as I know Gmail & Office365 do not work without this FW (unless you decrease gmail security to use TLS 1.0)

                            Here is a section of the readme file announcing the changes ...
