Hi.
I just acquired decommissioned Bizhub 4050 and I have been fixing and learning about this machine past few days. There is one feature I cannot get working. I cannot get direct print from USB working. According to user manual, it is supposed to be under "Document Print / Delete" menu, but "External Memory" button is not showing up under this menu.
Only setting I know will affect this function is under "Administrator Settings/System Settings/Folder Settings/External Memory Function Settings/Print Document" and this is set to "ON".
Are there any other settings that I need to check?
Does it require newer firmware for it to work? This copier's current firmware version is A6F730G0902WATP
There are also few other issues/concerns.
When I got this copier, it had D093 error and I found issue was with HDD itself and HDD caddy. Caddy had broken solder joints on SATA connector and HDD itself was BIOS locked. Since I didn't have 320GB HDD on hand, I put 500GB HDD instead. Printer detected HDD fine and it partitioned and formatted HDD. However, it only shows 256720MB when checked under service menu. When I check partitions on a PC, I see only 250GB is used and rest is unpartitioned.
Is this normal with 320GB HDD as well? Or, do I have to put 320GB HDD to use full capacity?
Another issue is with time and date setting getting lost when power is turned off for a while. I figured out there is a small rechargeable lithium battery on control board. How long does it take this battery to get fully charged? I had this copier powered for about 12 hours, but lost time setting after being turned off overnight. Does it take longer to charge or is this battery gone bad and not holding charge anymore? I can get replacement battery from digikey, but since shipping is way more than the part, I want to make sure it is bad first.
