    MP C306z Service mode

    Hey guys...hopefully this is an easy one. I have tried searching previous forums with no luck.

    I just got a new/used MP C306z into my shop and i am trying to go through my routine clearing and resetting everything through the service mode.
    Only issue is that this one has an IC Card Reader and a smart op panel.

    How do i access the number keys to enter service mode?
    They only way i've found it to hit the stop button, that pulls up the numeric keypad but it won't work from there.

    The number sequence has not changed 806182 etc.

    Use the document server keypad or left side of SOP pop off the small cover hold down lower EX3 and touch bottom left of the screen (check status) this brings up a keypad that you can use.

        ....or just use the classic copier, or classic fax screen for a keypad

          I couldn't access it because it requires a keycard authentication to get there.

          Does anyone know how to get this off? On previous models i took it off through sp mode but for some reason i cant figure this one out. If i need to start a new thread for this question just let me know.

            Think to turn off authenication mode it's either in Admin mode or maybe enhanced security mode.
