Mpc3001 ps option swap

Re: Mpc3001 ps option swap

Ok thanks Slim,

To be honest I just wanted to remove it from the machine... what about the JAVA embedded software? can I remove that?

As for the postscript option in this thread, what SP mode would I need to execute in order for it to be useable in another MFP?

With any option that is embedded, there is nothing that can be removed without totally disabling the machine.

sorry mr fuser, I thought the topic fitted into this thread quite well and wasn't worth starting a new one.

out of interest, did you ever get rid of that message?

Re: Mpc3001 ps option swap

You can get rid of the message by deleting a few files on the PS card. Insert the ps card into your laptop. You will more than likely see 3 files. One is called GPS which is empty and then two others. Open the first file and then let me know what the contents are. I will tell you which files to delete. I believe from memory there should only be 4 files with a font extension (something like Optima) in both the files. You can figure it out yourself by plugging a new ps card into your laptop and then seeing what is different. Just delete the additional files as they would of been moved applications (delete zoffy) from the old device. I have done it many times and no issue.

Thanks for that nice detailed answer. I've got two that I've removed from refurbs and want to hold onto and save myself some moneys.
I'm attaching a pic of the 3001 postscript card I have and if you can tell me what shouldn't be there I'll have a good base for future cards. e.g. I've got a type 5000 too.

Re: Mpc3001 ps option swap

Sorry for the late reply. In the above example there should only be 4 files in each folder. The files that names start with opt10 and font01 belong to the PSCard. The files that start with data crypto and zoffy are files that were merged to the PS option and are causing the error message to flash. Simply delete the additional offending files so that only the 4 remain in each folder and all should be good as gold. You can print a config page after to confirm the ps language appears in the printer languages.
