Definition- [B]
No encoder signal from the scanner motor
-Possible cause-
• Scanner motor connector defective
• Scanner motor defective
• MCU defective
• Scanner wire, timing belt, pulley out of position
• PSU defective
The screws of the pulley usually are cut that moves the scanner this causes that the car is crossed and that the sensor does not detect the home position. check and corect this defect.

Please show me how can I unlock the error code SC305 for Photocopier Ricoh Aficio 1224c

This is a Corona cleaning unit error. You either need to get the issue with the corona cleaning unit fixed or have a service technician turn off the automatic cleaning function. SP Mode 2 801 3 (technican will know what this code means) I can not tell you how to do this as you can total mess up the machine if the service mode is not used properly.
Turning off the cleaning will solve the error code. Technician can clean the coronas himself on service calls so automatic cleaning is not required.
Good Luck

Printer shows error CH551

Is this actually a Ricoh Aficio 1013F, or another model, because "CH551" is not a ricoh service code?Do you mean "SC551"
If so, this is a fuser "triac" problem (basically a fuse in the heater unit). It can only be reset in service mode after the problem is fixed...and will require a tech.

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.
