Serial Number
Use this procedure to restore the machine serial number after replacing the Main PBA.
The serial number of each machine is on the data plate on the rear cover and behind the front
door.
The serial number should be 16 digits. The actual serial number is comprised by the product
code of 3 digits and serial number of 6 digits. Therefore the last 7 digits are input by null code
'0'. Example: RYR361001 = RYR3610010000000.
Clean Drum
Use this procedure to clean the toner remaining on the OPC drum, so a clean printout can be
obtained. Perform this procedure if stains or specks appear on the prints and print quality is
defective.
The machine automatically prints a sheet of paper. The toner particles on the OPC drum sur-
face are fixed to the paper.
WorkCentre M20, 4118, FaxCentre 2218 Family
It may be necessary to perform this procedure several times until a clean print is produced.
New Drum
If the 'New OPC Error' message is displayed after initial power on or after closing the cover
after installing a new drum, it makes installing a new drum compulsory.
