When we first started selling this series, it only took about a month before we had a rash of failures at about 10 - 15k with the PCDU's. No matter what you do, you can't "bring it back" to normal, except for replacing the unit. Replacing just the developer might work for a short while, but not a sure-fire solution. Shortly after realizing the units suck, we found out that you can put the 411844 (Type 1515) PCU's in the MP 301 machines (break off a pin on the frame of the machine that meshes with the face-plate of the PCDU). Ever since then, we've had them go to the actual 45k yield they are rated for. Not sure what they did to the D127xxxx units, but as I said, they are JUNK, and we refuse to use them!! Have lodged MANY complaints with RICOH about them, but nothing has ever been done.
