Aficio 1224c Error code Sc544

[CableGuy]

I don't think it's a good idea to tell a non-tech the way to enter the service mode. The service mode is for technicians who know what they're doing, not for customers!
You can do a lot of damage if you don't know what you're doing!

You can simply reset the 544 Service Call, but what caused this SC??? I bett this SC will return.

I agree with you here, we had a customer who found the codes online, then proceeded to rest the machine using 801..... not once but twice in 6 months.... Do you have any idea how long it takes to reprogramme a colour machine!? I strongly suggest that these codes should not be given to non-trained people. Because if it goes wrong, it will wind up on your doorstep.

I know the reason of this error, I live in a place in Belgium, where the power is very unstable, time to time you see the light strength change, so what I think is I was operating the machine, then a paper with windows test page came out, and very clear, no one was printing anything, so it had low temperature and it trigger the fueser, it is working fine now, I will put an UPS on the machine so it gets constant power.

what do you think?

so i was right on my 1st reply.. only a sudden power surged can trigger that fuser error...

UPS/APC is the best way to avoid that problem the second time....

Any reply to help one another is aprreciated provided that it is from goodwill . The receiver have to interpret intelligently otherwises "you break it you pay for it" .
The problem is not only knowledge but also material ( manual service ).
"The mind are like parachute they only function when they are open". My 2 cents .
Best regards.

I'm not questioning your knowledge about electronics, mechanics etc, but I have seen people messing around in the Service Mode switching thing on and off, and making adjustments.
So I get a little bit nervous when I see someone, who hasn't done Ricoh training, make adjustments in the Service Mode.
