[Misc] Riso PS7R Controller System Software/Hard drive

[Guest]

I've got this PS7R Riso controller that may have a bad hard drive or system. Does anybody know where can I get the system software and instructions? I have experience reinstalling Canon and Minolta controllers.

I bought a Riso HC-5500 a while back with a PS7R-9000 RIP, the first thing I did was to pull the hard drive and Image it! I hear from RISO techs that it costs about $1000+ for that Hard drive & software from the factory, since I had a copier RIP go bad on me a few years ago (Toshiba) with a $900 factory hard drive, I knew what I had to do to make sure it didnt happen again!

BTW it appears to me that Riso uses a custom linux build for the OS on that RIP.

Hello Capstone,
Have you ever tested your image? Would you be interested in sharing it?
Thanks,

I sent you a PM.
