    [Error Code] Periodic maintenance 0070

    I have an e-studio 3040c and it was showing "Periodic Maintenance 0070" and a technician I hired was trying to clear it and was unable to to do so and somehow he changed Powersave time sleep time it goes to sleep in less than a minute is there a way to disable this.

    Also is there a way to reset the 0070. I know you hold 0 8 during powerup but what is the 4 digit code thanks in advance

      It would help a great deal to know what specific model you have. The service mode numbers are either 3 digit or 4 digit.

      if it were me, I would print off 9S-103 to see which maintenance items needed replacing, replace those items, then clear the appropriate counts in 6S mode. I would also check the value, and possibly reset 08-252.

      If this doesn't make any sense to you, you should get the service manual, or a technician that's qualified your model. Whatever that might be.

      If your technician didn't know how to reset counts, maybe he didn't know how to stir the developer or do a color calibration either. =^..^=
      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          PM Display Contents
          When the counter value exceeds the setting value, the equipment notifies you of when the maintenance time has come by displaying the message “Time for periodic maintenance ****” on the control panel LCD. “****” in the message is a 4-digit hexadecimal number code. This number is allocated in the following manner, therefore the parts needing maintenance can be identified.
          PM parts of the process unit (K) : 0008
          PM parts of the process unit (Y) : 0001
          PM parts of the process unit (M) : 0002
          PM parts of the process unit (C) : 0004
          Developer material (K) : 0080
          Developer material (Y) : 0010
          Developer material (M) : 0020
          Developer material (C) : 0040
          Parts other than the PM parts of the process unit : 0100
          If multiple parts have reached the maintenance time, the sum of the corresponding code values listed above is displayed in hexadecimal numbers.
          For example, if the PM parts of the process units (K) and (C) and the developer materials (K) and (C) reach the maintenance time, the 4-digit hexadecimal number code will be “00CC” in hexadecimal numbers: 0008+0004+0080+0040=00CC.
          So, in your mfc, 0070 = developer materials (Y)(M)(C) reach the maintenance time.

          The reset condition of each counter is as follows:
          • 08-5570: Current value of PM counter [developer material (Y)]
          • 08-5571: Current value of PM time counter [developer material (Y)]
          When the current value of “DEVELOPMENT UNIT” on the main screen or “YELLOW DEVELOPER (Y)” on the sub-screen in the PM support mode is cleared, the counter is reset.

          • 08-5572: Current value of PM counter [developer material (M)]
          • 08-5573: Current value of PM time counter [developer material (M)]
          When the current value of “DEVELOPMENT UNIT (M)” on the main screen or “MAGENTA DEVELOPER (M)” on the sub-screen in the PM support mode is cleared, the counter is reset.

          • 08-5574: Current value of PM counter [developer material (C)]
          • 08-5575: Current value of PM time counter [developer material (C)]
          When the current value of “DEVELOPMENT UNIT” on the main screen or “CYAN DEVELOPER (C)” on the sub-screen in the PM support mode is cleared, the counter is reset.
