Re: C3350 swapping IU's ???

That's what I heard as well. Agree the small Kon/Min machines are not that great. I will put the bigger Kon/Min up against any other OEM. Only one close would be Canon.

Of course each Tech has their favorite OEM which is usually the OEM they have most experience with...

I have worked on Konica's since there were Royal. Back in the days oh the 110/115/130/145's up to today. I also had been trained on Xerox, Mita's before the became Kyocera, & Panasonic. Always thought I would stay with the Km's. These new Ricoh's have been very reliable and the customers love them.

Replace the ICP on the TCR chip. That will reinitialize it. Its even possible to convert b/w to color.
If you get a TCR range error best to replace it. Shake the crap out of the replacement to ensure the toner mixes into the dev.
The CMY TCR chips are not the same as for the b/w unit. Think its only a SMD resistor that makes them different.

Comparative lack of Canon techs and threads here works in favour of your words

Or could be just more Kon/Min machines are sold.
