    When I was working on Samsung for a while, all the replacement boards came to us set to Portuguese display language. With a little help from one our Portuguese speakers I was able to get it set to US English: When Ready ("Preparada") press Menu x2 to "Conf. maquina" > right arrow x3 to "idioma" > Enter > left arrow x2 to "[English]" > Enter.

    idioma is language
    maquina is machine ... I think. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

            so it seems you want to drive a car with 3 flat tires?
            the copier is a color machine and self calibrates frequently. you cannot tell it to just calibrate black. its against the programming.
            if it cannot get a good reading from the missing colors because its out of toner the machine will not produce a page.
            short answer, replace the depleted toners or buy a monochrome copier.
            We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
            The medication helps though...

                Re: Konica Software Switch settings (complete)

                I've just reviewed this Thread & nobody has mentioned these files/tools so here they are:

                The attached zip files contain: 1) a Konica Minolta Master Soft switch excel file dated 2017 with details about switch settings that you browse through.
                & 2) (from a KBA that no longer appears), a KM Soft switch Tool used when you export the management list to usb.(4e models & later).
                It will read the S1***.csv file & compare it to the default list file & display non matches.
                You can also import a 2nd S1***.csv file to Match the 2 files that you just loaded into the spreadsheet.

                Typically when there is a mismatch the info about the soft switch is then displayed.
                You could also manually overwrite the Hex value to see what detail shows up.

                Perhaps the tool was pulled because it was not updated & does not have recent ssw changes?
                Enjoy

                    if im not totally insane yet, i remember seeing an option in admin somewhere that allows to override weather to use the driver you choose driver priority or machine priority for printing.
                    i think you must specify the tray first and ignores a discord of type i think.

                        not sure if it's what you're talking about, but in "user settings" then "printer settings" , "basic settings" there's a setting "A4/A3-Lgl/Ltr" so it automatically changes the paper size.

                            Why do you ask? Those bit registers could simply be unused.
                            Whatever

                              Because they are used on machines belonging to a company I do IT for (and have been changed from default).

                                What are the current settings of these DipSW and why do you think they are not the default?

                                The default setting is a matter of convention - Konica Minolta always changes the factory settings when delivering machines to customers under contract, so the new setting is the default for contract machines.
