    "C-CC00" is shown on the control panel after turn on the main power:
    [Conversion Up] To convert the data format, select the key as follows.
    Select Service Mode > State Confirmation > Memory HDD Adj. > Conversion Up.

    I know that when you get C-E002 after a f/w upgrade it will take a while before you are able to enter service mode.

      Normally after "Conversion Up" this error should be gone; which Firmware Version you use....V88?

        get into service mode

        SOLUTION: Perform the HDD conversion up procedure as follows:
        1. Enter Service mode.
        Note : To enter the service mode, it may be necessary to perform the following:
        a. With the main power switch OFF, turnON the sub power switch.
        b. While holding down the Utility/Counter button, turnON the main power switch. Do not release the Utility/Counter button until the Konica Minolta logo
        appears.
        c. When the Trouble Reset button appears, press Stop-0-0-Stop-0-1.
        2. Select State Confirmation.
        3. Select Memory HDD Adj.
        4. Go to page 2 and select Conversion up.
        5. Press the start key.
        6. Power Machine OFF/ON using the main power switch when prompted.
        7. The upgrade is now complete and no error code should be indicated.

          yep, for the new generation from KM, after a firmware upgrade, you have to update the hdd, otherwise you'll endup with this error.

            when you get to the trouble reset button and you press stop o o stop o 1, that is when the code pops up. We can't get past that point.

              firmware

              did you skip several versions of firmware on this upgrade? And if you turn on machine normally (and get the error) did you wait for about three or four minutes then try the Utility/Counter button? Every where I look it says that this is from not doing a version up on the hard drive..

              hopefully you dont have a bigger problem.. try loading the previous version of firmware, do the version up, then re-load the current version.

                can't get into service mode

                yes i do understand how to reset the code from the service mode, but as i stated up front, i can't get into service mode. i have the updates from the konica minolta site which state step by step how to do it. but the first step is get into service mode.i have tried utility, s00s01 and i have tried holding utility while power on to the konmin logo, it does not not work as stated. i have had 2 other techs try with the instructions on paper in front of them and no go.

                  Boot it up, go get some coffee, finish coffe, then try to go into the tech mode. It takes like 2 to 5 minutes before it will let you get into the tech mode.

                    We understand that it takes a long time to get into service mode. The point is that it won't go there. There is a big steel door in front of the door to service mode with that code on it . It won't move. stop zero zero stop zero one, and CODE. No matter how we boot it up, it codes. We waited and watched, it codes. Can't get to any part of any service menue, it codes. It is a brand new show room machine, it codes. We are trying to find a back door.

                      Do the following:
                      - hold the utility/counter button
                      - power it up
                      - keep it holded until trouble reset shows up
                      - reset it
                      - power it off
                      - power it on but keep the front door open
                      - enter into the service mode

                      It should work.

                        It should work.
                        You can also try to enter the service mode after step 4 and before step 5. I think you can start with just the stop 0... and not have to do the meter read thing.

                        That has worked on the b600 and c250's haven't tried on the c550's yet.

                          Tried it, turned the machine back on with door open and it coded. when it boots up, it boots to code C-E002 and won't move from there. Thanks in advance for any more tips, we will try them and let you know if they work.
