    MZ 790/990 Drum Problem - T96-569 & D02-532

    Hi there,

    I'm having trouble installing a new blank print cylinder. When I put it in for the first time I get T96-569, which indicates "Print drum color or ink category not set." which is to be expected since it is a new, blank drum.

    So I follow the steps to install a new drum, tm 117, 890 and 887... but when I reset out of test mode, I'm hit with D02-532 "Wrong-Type Cylinder installed"

    The drum is identical to my other drums so I don't think it's the wrong type of drum... though when it arrived, the drum body had been dented, which I think happened during shipping so maybe it got dropped or mishandled.

    Any suggestions on what I could do to fix this problem?

    One other note - when I was trying to install it and I put in test mode 887 for the inking action, nothing actually happened. It just beeped after a second.

      I'm wondering if I was sold an RZ5 drum by mistake. Is there any visual way to differentiate between RZ5 and RZ9 drums? I mean it looks the same as my other drums...

        Problem solved! For some reason the Drum Code (TM 1210) and Ink Category (TM 1215) were set to 0 'Not Specified' I just copied the values for those 2 inputs from another working drum I have. After that the drum setup (tm 117, 890 and 887) worked out the way it was supposed to.
