    MX-3114N Color Mode Enable

    Hey guys
    I have a Sharp MX-3114N copier machine. Recently I faced F2-41 error code related to Cyan density sensor. I decided to temporary disable color printing to continue print BW. It works good. I did it from web management > enable / disable settings. Now I want to enable color printing again, but that checkbox disappeared! I will appreciate anyone can help me to find and enable it again.
    Thanks in advance

    Are you sure you disabled color printing? As far as I know you can disable color printing on PC only. (in printing preferences)

      Pretty sure the setting you found is only when printing from a phone, if it was under System settings > Printer Settings. That doesn't do anything to stop it from printing color.

        Yes I'm sure. There was a checkbox in web management > enable/disable settings. I've checked the disable color mode but now it's disappeared. I read somewhere once disabled this option, only a technician can enable it!

              "This function is only for use as an emergency measure. Once this setting is enabled, only a service technician can cancel the setting. Promptly contact your dealer or nearest SHARP Service Department listed in the Quick Start Guide to have a service technician cancel the settings and resolve the problem."

              Well I don't know how I'm supposed to do it as a service technician ...

                  Even there is no any warnings to notify user before doing it!
                  Anyway BW printing and all other functions except color printing are working well...

                        Thanks dude, it worked! Now the checkbox shows again.
                        For those who didn't know about this option here can check below image I marked the address.
