what was the code #?
did you replace the parts with the reset?

did you follow service manual procedure?

what did you EXACTLY reset?

just to say you did it .. how do we know it was performed correctly?

[TSS]

BUT.....

DID YOU REPLACE PARTS?

sometimes you have to clear individual parts before clearing the counters

and why would you clear counters if you hadn't replaced the parts? are you trying to: do a halfassed job? or do you feel the engineers that designed the unit and set maint part limits just are a bunch of fools?

Do you know what the TA code means? Most of the time you clear this code their are other items that need to be changed. Do you have count on you maintenance items such as, black and color drum rotations? black or color developer rotations? How about you TK1 and TK2 counts? Possibly even fuser counts? We need a little more help here...counts would be nice.

I dealt with this a while back when these first released. There was a bulletin about maintenance codes in regards to FK3 (web which these models do not have). If you have reset all codes it would seem this is the one you don't have access to in sim mode because it frankly doesn't exist.

Enter SIM Mode 55-1, select Switch Number 22, Data Number 6, and set to 0. Remember topress Execute before exiting the SIM Mode for the setting to become permanent.

This was also an issue on the new black and white MX-M machines as well which was fixed with a firmware upgrade.


So my recommendation is to upgrade firmware and then check and or change that soft switch.
