Missing counter when printing (Ricoh 3000)

Re: Missing counter when printing (Ricoh 3000)

checkout the sp - mode 5-888-001 if it is not in "1". it is generally protecting the info about the job owner. It puts asterisks in the name field..could affect also your counting.

otherwise I would backup NVRAM 5-824 (nvram upload) = you need empty SD card in service slot2 (usually the lower one).

After backuping, I would try to do NVRAM clear, starting with SP 5-801-003 and 004, 005 and above. Please follow the service manual. This is highly advanced troubleshooting. Could cause serious damage if you don't know how to proceed. If not necesarry I would not do 002 /engine reset - it affects color calibration as well, white correction when scanning.

Either your problem is with some wrong SP parameter or maybe MP C3000 does not support this feature? Are you 100% convinced this counter was presented at the beggining?
Because Aficio MP C3000 is GW05 - meaining it's controller is more than 15 years old.

The C3000 is one of the models that have 3 SD slots. The Service Slot is Slot 3.
Slot 1 is used for the standard printer/scanner application only.
Slot 2 is used for one of the optional applications: PostScript 3, Data Overwrite Security Unit, PictBridge, VM Card
Slot 3 is used for installing the Browser Unit, VM Card, or for service only (for example, updating the firmware).

I was not sure, I remember also Aficio MP161SF had 3 slots, but maybe these two series Stella and Athenas maybe.. After that all new models have now only two slots

Except for the D042 MP C2000 which was just a slower version of the C3000, if the product code started with a D, it only has 2 controller SD slots.
