Hi
There can be problems like this when upgrading the latest firmware on this model - see the bulletin and a previous post http://www.copytechnet.com/forums/ricoh-savin-gestetner/13048-service-mode-stalls.html

Also make sure you are updating ALL the firmware and not just the Engine and System. I've had "quirky" things happen when updating just some and not all. Check out that TSB and then update all firmware on the machine.

thanx for the help....
got the machine going again....the system sd card seem to go corrupt if you load just the engine firmware...could not believe it ,but true.we just erased the system sd card and loaded it over again.the thing that youmust do is select both engine and system and then press "upload".
another thing how much do you guys get on your parts yield? on both my mp1100 i got a staggering 2.5 million copies before i needed to change dev,drum and pm kits....must say the machines get a propper service every +/- 300 000 copies.enjoy!!!

While they can go well over the recommended PM cycle, I like to make sure I put the kits and developer in near to the proper time. I don't like it when toner blows past filters and makes a mess, etc. If the machines are going to be in the field for a long time or are going to be high volume machines, you will be better off in the long run doing the PM's on time when you can.
