Ricoh Aficio Mp- 161 Copier Questions & Answers
My Ricoh Aficio MP 161 said to add toner but still won't copy
Check your old toner bottle and make sure the plastic "cap" is still in the bottle. These machines have an occaisional problem with the caps coming off (not the black screw off cap but the semi clear cap under the black screw off cap) and staying inside the black plastic "cup" that you insert the toner into. If the cap is missing it may be stuck inside this cup. If the cap is still in your old cartridge then try opening/closing the front door and letting the machine cycle to see if the toner light goes out. May have to do this several times. Had one customer just yesrday have to do this to clear the toner light after adding toner.
Good Luck.
Sc 285 sur un photocopieur ricoh
You either have a torn ITB belt or a faulty ITB belt unit.
If this is not your problem then you could have a faulty ID sensor or a faulty PCU that is causing your Process Controll to fail and generate the SC285.

I changed the developer and drum unit on my ricoh 2001sp but it prints faint
Several possibilities. Here are steps to take. First, shake the toner cartridge of this laser printer. Distribution of the toner could be the problem. Secondly, the problem might be a dirty Corona wire. That charges the toner so it sticks to the paper. Clean it by turning off the printer and unplugging it. Open the front cover and take out the toner cartridge. Locate the green tab at the top of the drum. Slide it back and forth several times. Return the tab to its original position. Reinstall the toner cartridge and close the cover. Plug it back in and test it out. Lastly, the problem might be the drum unit. Sadly, the fix for that is to replace the drum unit. Oops, I forgot to mention to check the settings to see what quality of printing they are set to. Good luck.
