Ricoh MP C2501 - SD Card Authentication failed

[Nauman]

My Ricoh MP C2501 is showing me this message " SD Card Authentication Failed " but my machine is fully functional i can Print / Copy & Scan. The only problem i faced yesterday was while printing from Windows 10 , the machine printed blank pages and one had hardly visible printed text very very faded but i can figure it , that there's a print. After both PC and Ricoh machine was shut down for a full day and turned on today and given a print order from PC its functioning normally . I have noticed the SD card message and bit curious now what could be the problem. Any one faced such problem before or knows any solution to the SD card authentication failed message, will appreciate if someone can advise.

Thank you

What SD card is in the machine? Did that C2501 work before with the SD card in it or did you or someone else just add a SD card taken from another machine? That message usually appears when the SD card was previously installed in another machine and not properly uninstalled.
