SC 320 - Polygon motor error.
The polygon motor does not reach its operating speed within 10 sec. after the polygon motor on signal,or the lock signal is not detected for more than 40 ms continuosly during operation.
Possible causes polygon motor defective,poor conection of the interface harness which connects the polygon motor driver and the IOCSS board, IOCSS bboard defective.
The SC can be reset by turning the main switch OFF and ON if the SC was caused by a sensor error.
To reset SC press yellow key 1 - 0 - 7 and STOP ( red ) key for 3 seconds,enter in the SP mode, enter SP 5-810 ( SC code reset) and select "1".Then hold down the Photo mode key and the # key at the same time for at least 3 seconds(this does not require the main switch to be turned off and on).

SOURCE: Gestetner 3218 Aficio 180 Fuctional Problem SC 543

Enter SP mode - Clear button (yellow key), 1 0 7 and hold and press stop button (orange key).
Enter SP5-810 (SC code reset) and select “1”.
Then hold down the “Photo mode” key and the enter key(hash) at the same time for at least 3 seconds (it is not necessary to turn the main switch off andon). If the machine beeps 5 times, the reset was successful. If it only beeps twice, the reset failed, and you need to repair the machine.
Possible causes are the fusing thermistor in the fuser unit, or the power supply unit defective.
Good luck and please rate me, thanks.

Gestetner 3225 error code SC544 - functional problem

SC544 indicates low fuser temperature during the warm up process. This means you have a problem with the fusing unit heating up. The fusing unit is located right where the paper exits the machine. Most common failure on these Ricoh's (Your Gestetner 3225 is made by Ricoh model aficio 250) is the fuser thermistor. This is a small electronic part that measures the temperature of the fusing roller. When they go bad they do not "see" the heat and therefor the code pops up. You are going to need to have a tech look at this for you as you will need to determine for sure which part is bad then you have to go into the service mode to reset this SC code before the machine will run.
Good Luck and Thank You for using Fixya.

Ricoh Aficio 1018 photocopier

For the Aficio 1018. SC-320 is laser failure - the polygon mirror motor inside the laser has failed and needs replacing. You will need to contact your nearest service agent for repair.

For your RICOH Aficio 1013F - SC-551 is overheat in standby mode as far as I can tell. The circuitry that controls the fuser section ie manages the heat has problem. Unless its right near a source of heat like a heater or has no circulation around you machine you will need contact a repair agent for this machine also.
