error compatibility toner dc230

Hi friend. this morning have tried to change that value putting at random some numbers but yet doesn't work! the number of the "country code" was planned on 1. which number do I have to put for making to work my machine? thanks

I'd have thought it should be 29/10, but that is just from looking at the service manual. You could try also 2/9. The default for 29/10 is 1, the range is 0-255. The default for 2/9 is 0, the range is 255. However I am not clear what 2/9 actually is. The manual just says "CRUM COD ID".

the number of the "country code" was planned on 1

What does that mean? Was the original value 1, before making any changes? It might be that this is the value read off the toner chip and that the machine country code is somewhere else. Your aim is to make the machine country code the same as the toner country code - therefore if the toner is American then you have to use an American country code (most likely 0 or 1). Is your machine Italian? Just use small numbers.

You can also try scrolling through the codes, as there may be something not listed in the service manual. Especially groups 2, 29, 30, 50. Also when you change a value, go back and read it again, and check that it has actually changed. Some of the values are read only.

Always make a note of the original value before you change it!!!!!

well. the number of the "coutry code" is always planned on 1 both putting the American toner both putting the Italian toner.
I have tried to insert in number 0 and once made the reboot of the machine it has appeared the number 6. now I have to try to insert the numbers that you have said, that is "2, 29, 30, 50."

You misunderstood me. I meant that you should look in the sections of NVM in those groups, i.e. 2/nn, 29/nn, 30/nn and 50/nn. There may be another setting for country code somewhere. I think we are barking up the wrong tree! Why don't you just get a reprogrammable chip? It would be a much better solution. Is it a 230 series toner or a 440 series toner?

ok sorry. I have understood what you intend to say. the toner is of the series xerox dc230 but I has the same problem with dc440. however to this point I think that the only solution would be to buy a Italian chip.

The DC440 cartridge is different: different photoreceptor, one cog is different size, and different data in the chip - regardless of country of origin. If you put the DC440 cartridge in a 230 with a 230 chip it will print, but the toner density will be too high. If you change the photoreceptor also, you have to change the cog to the 230 cog. Everything else in the 440 cartridge is the same, including the toner powder.

in fact I do as you have said. I have the dc230 American toners that I use them in dc440 putting the Italian chip for dc440.

As I said, they are different cartridges. If you use the 230 in the 440 the copies will be too light.

I have understood. however it would have been better to directly resolve the problem of the not-compatibility in the settings of the machine.

As I said, the non-compatibility is in the photoreceptor, which requires a different voltage to be applied in the machine. Changing settings in the machine will not change that. The 230 and 440 use different hardware.

hello friends. it is possible on these machines (dc 230 and DC440) change the hemisphere? I have programmed the machine for Europe. is possible to change it in USA?
