    can I use a FS-539 SD finisher with a bizhub 958?

    I guess I would need a RU-513 relay unit. Anybody know?
    Thanks in advance

    We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
    The medication helps though...

      +1 Only FS-536/537 as per configuration. But....

      This document lists options that can be selected or attached to various bizhub models. Some options are required while others are optional. The options include finishers, authentication units, paper trays, and other accessories. Specifications for each bizhub model are also provided.
      Whatever

        I know to make some finishers backwards compatible you have to grab firmware from a supported model to get it to work. That might be the case here. You would definitely need a compatible relay unit but there is nothing physically stopping compatibility just software and firmware.

          Thanks all for the info. Will probably get the 513 relay and try with FS-536SD firmware

            I would suggest to not let it do firmware with the finisher attached. It could work like the FS534 working instead of the FS536 on the 8 series but
            will not work after a firmware update due to the difference in the elevator motor type.

              You can check the parts catalogs between the different finishers. It may just be a difference in the part number of EEPROM in which case you might be able load the older firmware assuming the main machine will allow it. If not you will need to order the EEPROM. I have done that a few times on Ricoh finishers.
