    MPC2050 no hard drive?

    Found and mpc2050 at my wholesaler and it looks as if there is no hdd.
    the fax won't load shows document server unavailable and scan says cannot store.
    so I'm thinking they pulled the hard drive before returning it.
    one question where is the hdd on this model?

        Unfortunately, you are likely to encounter this problem frequently.
        Thanks mostly to the initial users doing things with the machines that they were not designed to do, the hard drives on many machines are being removed before they show up at the wholesalers because of security concerns.
        Sorry.

          I know what you mean, it would just be nice if they could just remove the hard drive and leave the mounting bracket and connectors.

            Be glad it isn't an MP6001, 7001, 8001 or 9001. If the bracket is missing all you can do is order the complete assembly (Ricoh won't sell just the brackets). That little jewel is 500.00.

              Ricoh and Sharp Parts 50 to 80% Off Harvested Parts for the bracket/hdd.
