Copier Mode - will only copy in colour.

I recently acquired piece of electronics I am attempting to set it up. My first task was to see if the copier worked. It reproduces coloured copies only and will not copy using the black ink. I printed the nozzle check pattern and everything is okay. I also performed the head cleaning and the deep print cleaning and attempted to copy again with no success. I have also replaced the black ink catridge. No luck. Any suggestions? Thanks Kathy

Need to adjust the Settings on the Colour Mode to Black. The repair man left it on Auto now everyone in the office is not adjusting it to black.

Hello kthomas803,
You are smart to see this and respond. Even "black'pen ink has red pigment in it and although the human eye can't see it the copier can and counts that as a color copy. Hit the reset button so we know we are at the base configuration of the device.Now select black as the mode for the device as if you were about to make a copy.Now locate the "Aditional function" button to the right of the display.You will see a menu and I believe on your device the top right tab will say copy settings.Select it and scroll till tou see the "standard settings" key.Select it.The 2 options should be store and initialize.Select store and hit ok in he lower right corner.Now back out to the main screen which will require a couple of exits/resets.Now that you are back to the main copy screen select auto color.Press reset (yellow button).Your copier should now have gone back to black.Hope I have helped you,and have agood day.Please let "FIXYA" know if I helped.

COPIER imageRunner C3100N has an occasional streak down the page

Is it a grey/green colour, not one of the C,M,Y,K colours?

If so I think it will either be a worn out cleaning blade or drum.

Difference between ''Auot Color'' and ''Full Color Mode

Most Colour machines have three settings.

Auto Colour, Machine will determine if the original is Colour or Black and White from its scan. Then print in the format that best suits the original.

Full Colour, Machine will copy in full Colour regardless of Original type.

Black and White, Machine will copy or scan in B & W regardless of original type.

Hope this is of some help.

Want a B&W copy from colored sheet of paper w/o dark background.

It's never going to be perfect (unless the background is quite light in colour), because the copier basically "sees" the coloured background as "gray", and the darker the background the more "gray" it looks. Try setting the original type to "photo" mode, and then adjusting the exposure a little lighter/darker....that's all you can basically do.

Re:Minolta copier EP 2151 I am trying to print a stack of documents using SDH mode (semi-automatic document handling). The SDH mode green light comes on and blinks, but the light on the "go' (print) button...

If the green light on the adf is blinking that means that there is a paper jam in the adf. I sure you know that the copier you are using is at least 10 - 15 years old. Has the adf worked recently? Are one of the adf hings broken? If so, line the adf straight on the top of the copy board glass. There is a magnet that needs to be closed to make the adf work. Try to see if there is any small piece of paper in the papeer path of the adf and use a can of air to blow out the sensors and get back to us.
