Arc150 maintenance te

[gwaddle]

I can't find in the ARC150 service manual where they hid the maintenance codes. Can anyone help me?

Nevermind. I found the answer in a tech tip on sharp net. Thanks anyway.

• Reset the Total and color counters in Simulation 24-04 after maintenance is preformed.

Cause :

• Based on the settings in simulation TC21-1, the message on the display is _ _ Maintenance Required . The first 2 characters discribe both the counter that is ready for maintenance and the counter setting.
  
  The first character will signify the counter and the characters displayed are as follows:
  T: Total Maintenance Counter
  C: Color Maintenance Counter
  A: When the Total and Color counters have the same value
  
  The second character signifies the maintenance interval:
  A: 5K
  B: 10K
  C: 15K
  D: 20K
  E: 40K(default)
  F: 80K
  
  A typical message that might be displayed is TE Maintenance Required . This would mean the Total Counter has reached the 40K maintenance period set with Simulation 21-1.

How many Bear's do you have left in the field Gene?

We have only 2 now (thank goodness). I am the only one game enough to work on them. In their day they were pretty good. These days, I agree with the catching fire remark!

This is the only one. The only reason this one is out is because the little old lady that has it couldn't qualify for a real copier and the boss felt sorry for her, so he had me dig this one out of storage. Should have scrapped it sooner.

Hopefully she doesn't do much work with it, because as you probably know, drums/devs/belt & fuser maintenance time are a PITA. Its a great machine when fully serviced and calibrated, but such a massive job to service it. Damn I hate them. Surely soon you can get ahold of an early MX2300N or something like that which will be cheaper to run for you all.
