    very wise answer. I purchased a minolta approx 14 years ago...copier was amazing until service was required. No local repairman, so I bought a sharp sf 2214 which was troublefree for 14years. Thank you! Lisa

As one retired from that industry, my choice between those would be Sharp; Lanier support is much inferior to others. If you have a service company in your area, I can also recommend Canon and Toshiba as reliable machines. The best built copier of them all (IMHO of course), is Minolta but they are hell on wheels when they do need service and their support for their units is tightly controlled and independent service companies are pretty much shut out of parts procurement or ripped off in price.
Modern cartridge-based machines aren't nearly as service intensive as earlier but it is still wise to check on local support before choosing.

Ricoh Aficio SP 4210N- Code SC 543

This is a common error code for Ricoh copiers, Savin and Gestetner copiers that need service. Recently Ricoh has purchased Lanier and now is naming all their new machines Lanier instead of Gestetner, Savin and Ricoh. However, the copier service error codes have remained he same.
When you get this copier printer service code it means the fuser or fixing assembly (same part) has thermistor problem. The copier fuser's thermistors help regulate the temperature of the fuser assembly. The fuser assembly on all copiers including Canon, Kyocera, Ricoh, Sharp and other brands is the part that melts the toner onto the page.
Getting back to the repairing the copier on Ricoh, Savin, Lanier and Gestetner models that have the fuser or fixing code error. The majority of the time the fusers' thermistors (Middle and read) need to be replaced. Just cleaning them will not solve the copier repair service code.
It is usually, depending upon the machine, its a 1 to 2 hour copier repair job because the copier repair service technician will need to dissemble the fuser, insert the two new thermistors, re-assemble, reset the error code and test the copier machine repair. Also, ask the copier technicians to to do a copier cleaning maintenance while on site.

We just got a Lanier 6540 Copier donated to our center. I am trying to get it to work, but we weren't given any sort of manual for it and I can't find anything on the internet. I think it is too old for...

We also just had someone donate this same type of copier to us and do have a manual. We are currently having trouble with the stapling unit running continuously. The manual is about 130 pages. I may be able to scan it to you in a few days if you'd like.

Used Lanier LD435c needs to get reset to factory settings

enter the [user tools/counter] then before you press [system settings] hold it down pressed the [#] key and while the [#] key is pressed press the [system settings] key (on the touch screen or if dose not have touch screen than press ok) and the copier will return the settings to default. You can repeat the procedure for all settings.

Unable to print more than 3 copies of anything

What error if any do you get? Sounds like your printer needs a firmware update.
