Yesterday a guy called me about a ARM277 that was giving blank copys, print jobs are fine. I mentioned the problem here and maybe he should take a main board with him. Scan to email worked fine, but copys came out blank. He replaced the board including the IMC (removed every thing from a scrap copier) and it fixed the problem. He swapped IMC boards but could not replicate.

Gwaddle you helped fix our problem

I've ordered a main board, but it's back ordered at this point till January.
