      There is a possibility that a firmware upgrade could fix your issue. It wouldn't hurt to have the machine at the latest version anyway.
      Please don't ask me for firmware or service manuals as refusal often offends.

          I have 3 FS 2000d's with the 150 error message, I know that's the firmware update but I have no idea where I can get the files, since Kyocera doesn't have on their site. I replaced any board I could see from a good printer but the error stayed there, which board I suppose to replace? Any site were I can download the manual?
          Thanks in advance.

            I forgot to say on my previous post but I have also another fs 2000d which prints black pages, replaced transfer roller, developer unit and toner and still prints black pages.

              stick a bit of electrical tape over part of the laser opening and do a print, if you get a white strip then it could be main board. i had one on a fs-1030d which turned out to be the main control board. the laser was writing from edge to edge of the page giving totally black prints. hope this helps

                Yes, worked more than once for me.
                What to do
                Format a CF in a working machine, copy onto it (with a PC) the engine firmware file. Insert in faulty machine, then turn on. If the correct file is on the card it will boot from the card and update. LCD displays progress. Note: DO NOT TURN OFF UNTIL COMPLETE. Display will flash version upon completion. There is also system firmware done the same way, this takes longer to update. In some cases you'll notice the serial number is missing or page count has reset. There is a utility program to correct this
                Good luck

                  Check the charge roller and contacts to, else the engine board output is faulty.
