[Error Code] Ricoh MP C5503 SC186

[copier tech]

Hi all,





Manual states:

Any guys out there seen this issue before?

I'm looking at replacing the CIS but very high cost part!

Any suggestions appreciated!

I've replaced several. Make sure the white roller in the door is spotless as it is the "white plate" for the CIS

Cheers for all the info.

Maybe a silly question but to get the machine running again as a temp measure is there a way to disable the single pass & set the DF to dual scan!?

I had this on a B\W 6002 series. Just to the left of the CIS is a mylar strip that will collect junk..Getting under it and cleaning it off resolved my problem. Its quick and easy.

Good luck

This was the fix, just a small bit of hard toner etc cleaned off & it worked.

My tech was a little embarrassed......................
