    [Error Code] ricoh sp c250

    Hate to ask but could someone please help me out on this small color laser printer. it spits out some blue in spots but most of the blue is not there, I tried a new cyan unit but that did not help , the machine says density senser needs cleaned, I have no ideal how to get in to the service mode or even where this sensor would be.

      Ricoh stopped putting how to access SP mode in their service manuals years ago.

      From an older manual here is the way used on most Ricoh printer only models:
      Method 1:
      If you switch the machine off, any jobs stored on the hard disk using the sample print and protected print features will be deleted.
      Method 2:
      The machine automatically goes off line when you enter the service mode.

        Read your user manual for how to clean Id sensor. Call a tech that knows this printer.

          if dirty with the new cyan toner it could be the transfer or it is the residue of the old toner, however, clean everything by removing all the groups. The sensor is at the bottom you have to remove the cyan and you should notice a lever with a blue plate to indicate that you can move it to the left and a spring reposition it to the right, this movement makes the sensor clean.
