(2) On the length of the media or
(3) Even staple same sized white media below the black one which you can un-staple after printing.

How to stop BN20 from beeping due to one empty ink cartridge. Need to purchase replacement.

Ask yourself the following:
did this start after a while or its a new printer you just installed;
have you mixed the correct toners;
have you checked the toners quantity (it may be running out);
have the toners been installed properly?

if the above doesnt help you, check your printers' manual, its very important.

I believe that there is an optical sensor just under the lid or on its hing ,sometimes it gets out of adjustment and does not sense the lid closure.Other times it is just not working at all and then you need to get it replaced,probably purchase another printer they way the printer costs have dropped.

if the problem is persists you have to replace the data cable connected to the head ( this cable goes foward and backward with the movement of the heads and sometimes it brokes ) i had the same problem and the solution is this.

SC548: Fusing unit installation error - Definition - [A]
The machine cannot detect the fusing unit when the front cover and right cover
are closed.
- Possible causes -· Fusing unit is not installed
· Poor fusing unit connection


check the 2 sensors on the left hand side of the copier (as you look at where the fuser is located). These get knocked & moved out of postion,
this sc 548 usually happens when paper jam occurs and user does not properly fit the fuser... also not fiitted properly due to some foreign object in between fusing belt and the sensor...
Enter SP 5810 (SC code reset), select “Execute”, select “close”, exit SP mode then turn main power switch off and on.

Your machine should now be working. Hope this helps. if this doesnt solve ur problem then try contacting ur ricoh service tech
