    MP 301 address book error on WIM

    Hi all, customer has about 12 machines, different models on site. Problem is only occurring on just one MP 301.
    One day IT guy tried to access its address book remotely to add new users. After login, click on address book and after a few seconds it said error (I cant remember exactly what the message was). So you don't even have the chance to click add user or anything it doesn't have time to load up the address book properly. Tried using different browsers and different PCs all the same result.
    You can do it manually on the copier itself with no problems it's only using WIM where the problem happens. I cleared NCS and re input network settings, with fixed IP not on DNS. No difference.
    Other than new firmware does anybody have any tips to try when I go there?
    Thanks

    Format the HDD - SP 5832-001
    Nothing works quite so well that I can't totally disable it by trying to make it a little better.

      Do from SP mode: backup the Address Book SP5-846-051, then initialize SP5-846-050 and restore it SP5-846-052.
      It needed the SD card.
      Maybe this solve the problem

        The reason I didn't suggest this is that your address book is likely corrupted, so that corruption would be restored and the issue would not be resolved.
        And, as this site has multiple machines, and sounds like the same address book in those multiple machines, it would be easy enough to export/import that address book from another machine.

          Hdd is not standard on this model. Does it have one? I'm thinking controller if initialise address book in UCS settings doesn't work.

            You are absolutely correct Captain, the HDD isn't standard on this model.

              Thanks for the input, it turns out it was quite simple. Sashko got it right kind of.
              Just had to re-initialise the address book then just uploaded an address list from another mp301 and it's all good again.
