I always run developer initialization first (SP2801) after ensuring all process values are at default, then I perform the rest of the PDCU codes.

Also, even though the Ricoh doctor blade gaps are supposed to be factory set DFW items, I find that setting these to a snug 0.35mm gap helps reduce dusting and filming without sacrificing quality and does help get more life out of the developer. That said, 320k on dev is a pipe dream but 160k to around 200k is possible.

Thanks for the info all. As soon as the rest of the parts are in I will be there... Gonna bring the feeler gauge and check out that gap too as it has me curious.

In regards to default values, well its nearly 30k past its pm cycle and im sure the values are waning a bit as the cq is not that great but at least its not backgrounding.

I tend to return the charge roller voltage to default first...mainly as it doesn't involve a restart.
Then the dev initalize.
