    Konica/ Olivetti Image units

    Hi all. Is there a way to make Olivetti branded MF283 to accept Konica original Image unit? Perhaps via a system bit SW? Thank you in advance.

      Only way I think it could be done is change the chip on image unit. Aftermarket chips should work on all models it crosses to.

          I wonder that you have problems. Does reset not function or will you get an errorcode?

                  Switch 10 should do the work but may get some side effects depending on environment.

                      Is the MF283 with C-287 identical? And it's a colour image unit?

                          The original drum chips from KM C-250i are the same like the original drum chips from Olivetti C-259(identical ?). Are there differnt chips for developer or imaging unit? Can someone please measure the resistance between pin 1 and 4 from orignial Olivetti developer chips, please? Thanks advanced.

                          I tested sw 10 by an C-287 without any trouble. But I don't know if there are original chips mounted.

                              Hi,

                              there should be no issue using C287 Image Unit in MF283. They are the same Machine just rebranded. I can't recall having issues with using KM Parts in Olivetti Machines.

                                  Are there different versions of the 7 series? So my C-287 has colored image units. Drum chips only fit black drum unit. The original question is also about Image Units. Incidentally, it was about original chips.

                                      I seem to be lost in what you mean here. Mind to send me a forum private message in German as i see you're from bavaria?
