    [Misc] C350 IU ~ how long on 8x11 after says replace before "times" out

    Taking over machine @ 370K. Customer says just came up with replace Cyan color IU (so am assuming yellow& mag soon to follow)
    Not certain about re chip history on it - but main question is:

    Approximately how many copies with 8.5x11 before machine will shut down. I realize they work on revolution counts so need an approximation. Is it 1K 5K or is there a temporary let it operate tech setting? (We will have Service manuals in on Monday)
    We are going to order chips but customer is "nervous" and wants some idea about how long they have.

    Thanks

    Merry Christmas

    the color
    IU's last appox 50000 prints, when the warning comes on the screen, you have appox 1600 prints till a shut down situation, depending on the copy jobs. Merry Christmas.

      Enter service mode, press STOP - 0 - C, touch "IU Life Stop Setting", choose "No Stop".

          Yes. The machine will only popup the warning about needing to replace the IU, but will not stop.
