Is there a way to get 24v out on a Bizhub 308e?

[patrickjlc]

I used to get 24 volt power out from the power source board on the old Kyocera 4050/5050 to power a coin op.
Is there a way to do the same on a Bizhub? I know a transformer is better, but people keep ripping it from the wall when moving the machine to clean.
Thanks for the help

I haven't had to do this in a long time, but it's not too hard to find a 24vdc supply on the power supply that stays on all the time, assuming you can reach the connectors while power is ON.

Specifically, I've done this on machines with internal heat issues. I would change the supply from the PRCB to a steady 24vdc right off the power supply, so the fan continued to run any time power is ON. It's solved heat issues on several occasions. Be aware that some machines monitor the load to fans, so the machine may error out if a fan load disappears from the view of the PRCB. That shouldn't affect your situation though. =^..^=
