    Was washed and then brined in Meat Church's 'Bird Bath Brine' for about 16 hours (~1hr / lb).

  2. Re: Toner marks at the edges of the paper Ricoh w2400

    I am speaking of the thin seal running the length of the drum unit. Likely wise to replace the other foam pieces too. On a unit of this age the long mylar and foam pieces have likely degraded beyond...
  3. Re: Toner marks at the edges of the paper Ricoh w2400

    The drum cleaning unit casing has a thin seal that lightly contacts the drum and keeps toner cleaned off the drum from falling back out before being angered to the waste bottle. It is likely hard,...

    Re: any companies laying off ?

    Ken, I'm not guessing. I have the package details from HR. Maybe it is different in the US, but here in Canada they typically offer 2 weeks per year served for severance. If you are invited to leave...

    [Misc] Re: Format Hard Disk

    Not the point. Ricoh doesn't even put the SP mode info in the service manuals anymore because too many people who have no business being in SP mode were mucking up machines. We don't want it further...

    If he is trying to use the lower exit it is fruitless for multiple prints save for the largest sizes. For the upper exit, the blue guides can get broken.

    Er, predecessor to the MP W3601. Seriously, a little out of date but just a Ricoh wide format machine.

    Well, you aren't going to get homemade alcohol in any quantity quickly, but it is absolutely possible.
