"Please wait" message

[OMD-227]

How's this one going?

We've thrown alot of ideas at it so far. I'm curious to hear if its fixed. I have alot of these out there and want to know the outcome on this one.

Only reason I am commenting is I am also interested in the final fix. If it is not fixed yet, I hate to ask but you said you removed the security kit. When you did so, did you reflash the firmare with the base software? Remember the security kit has a different system software version and the two cannot be mixed.

I'm also interested in this problem because I just came from a MX-4501 that's doing something similar. I turn on the copier, it initiallizes and goes through an auto copy quality adjustment and then goes into "please wait" and stays there. The fuser is heating up but the machine never comes ready. I tried reseating all the connectors in the back but no luck and I can't get into the service mode. If you can find a fix for this please post it. Good luck

On the C-Jupiter's, this can definitely be a faulty system memory issue (I've had it before). DIMM2 512Mb.

When you say that you cannot enter service mode, are you meaning the operation panel buttons are not functioning or are they making the right 'beeps' yet nothing happens?
