Hello, I am from The Netherlands (Europe)
Last year I bought an second hand Konika Minolta Oce -variolink-2222c c.q. Bizhub220 in an auction.
The machine worked very fine until I needed the administrator password for resetting some parameters.
Because the machine came from an auction sell, no administrator password was provided.
Someone advised me to take for a few second the system backup battery out, to reset the machines parameters.
I knew this method for resetting PC 's administrator passwords, so we gave it a try.
However we lost the software which was stored on that little battery board. -see photo-
The machine now starts, but after sometime displaying an hour glass,
i get the dashboard start picture, but the console push buttons don't react any more.
I can't copy or print anymore. HELP!
I guess it was the flash software we lost.
I read somewhere you are a Konika Minolta expert
Do you know what is stored on that board and
can you perhaps provide me with the needed (flash?) software?
Do you perhaps know how to repair this problem?
It would be a great help to get the machine alive like before.
Thanks for your attention
Kind regards,
Michel Coetsier
