SC548 means the machine it not seeing the fuser unit. Open the Right side and front doors. Check the fuser unit to see if it is mounted properly.
There is some connection on the fuser module not making good contact. Reseat the fuser and power the machine off and on.
If you need to reset. Press Clear all, 107 and hold the pink button until you cee copy sp page displayed. Press copy sp, then while on that page turn the machine off and back on.

Toner supply is controlled with readings from TD sensor on the developing unit and the I.D sensor above the drum by default.

These are low cost parts and easy to change.
(The TD sensor on this model have been known to fluctuate back and forth by a fair margin so is a good place to start).

You could also try stripping down and cleaning out the toner hopper.
Check the four mylars are present and the grabber is opening wide enough to grab the toner bottle nozzle successfully.

Check the toner hopper exit slider is opening fully when the PCU is inserted.

I had one of these 'add toner' faults today and it was the toner hopper all clogged up inside.
The side bit where the toner drops down had hardened clumps of toner stuck around the side entrance mylar and the exit hole.

Check also the toner motor. I have seen these fail. Run simulation output check for toner motor. I would remove the toner supply unit and hold the motor when you run this simulation. Sometimes the motor turns but does not have enough torgue to turn the toner supply unit.

This error code could be related to a Physical problem (machine) or Network Problem.

Physical problem:
Try to clean the ID sensor.
Probably you will also need to clean or replace the Drum Unit.

Network problem:
Upgrade your firmware.

(If you do not have technical skills a advise you to call your provider)

See you!

Could be a lot of things. start with toner hopper is bottle turning is end cap in toner bottle being pull out when toner handle is lower is side door open and dose toner fall out when bottle is turning. then next is developer powder how many copies on it. might be time to replace powder. or could be gears broken on developer unit. I would say if you not mechanical incline call tech.

this is software performance error.but this in most cases will appear on life over of either drum or developer.

open the front door look just above the fusing unit and you will find a roundlike unit there that is where the sensor is located.

This is an error code for the RFID which is the toner bottle chip on the the toner bottles. I would suggest you check the toner cartridges for any damaged or disconnected chips, have you changed to non ricoh toners as this can sometimes cause a problem. Check each bottle if you have any old empty bottles insert one of these into corresponding colour slot and you can then see which bottle is causing the error. Failing this the board will need to be changed. I have had errors on non ricoh bottles. you can also vac out the slot to clear spilt toner. hope this helps

The copier uses a photo sensor to determine when to replace the bottle. If the inside of the bottle is covered with toner, it thinks the bottle is still full. There should be a projection on the back of the bottle that fits into the sensor. You can try to clean the inside of the projection, but don't use any kind of liquid, use a dry cloth. You may have to buy another bottle. New ones should come with the toner. dood luck.

replace the developing unit motor. .part number ax06 0240

open and format hard disk in NTFS maybe firmware needs updation

You can not reset the main counter, there is a mech. counter behind front cover also. -Carl

clean the slit glass on left of where you place the copy on glass, remove if needed to clean both sides
