    C-3110, Black Toner Lockout...

    I have had this more than once on this series, and I usually just trade in or trash the machine as a result. Have checked/cleaned all the connections at the cartridge, tried clearing the Black toner count in softswitches, tried multiple toners...

    I'm starting to think that this may be a Low Voltage Power Supply issue, seen this happen on other machines when the 12v line (or 5v, whatever) goes low and things start to go awry.

    Anyone ever fixed this problem without replacing Logic boards?

    Thanks in advance.

      Did you tried Engine DIP switch 28?

      Hint: use find to serach for "Choice of toner empty recovery mode" in SM.

        Thanks guys... yes TSB, I did try DS 28; no change.
        Have not tried replacing both the IU and the Toner at the same time, but I guess that's worth a shot.

        I guess no one has had any other luck with voltages or circuit boards?

          Exchanged K connector with other color for test?

            Nope, haven't done that. The problem is, the time involved in troubleshooting these things eclipses the cost of buying them used, from another wholesaler. I've had to trash 3 or 4 of them recently for this issue, which is sad, but
            what are you gonna do?
