Fuser is not reaching operating tempurature. turn off the unit. Take the fuser out and reseat it. Power it back up. Ricoh Printers Error Codes Normally there are 3 levels of service call conditions in Ricoh printers.

Level A is the highest level. Machine can not be used until code is reset. The printer cannot be operated at all. Here is a list of common error codes.
Level B: The SC might be reset by turning the main switch off and on in some conditions.
Level C: The printer can be operated as usual except for the unit related to the service call.
SC302: High voltage power supply error
SC306: Charge roller home position error
SC320: Polygon mirror motor error
SC320: Polygon mirror motor error
SC500: Main motor error
SC542: Fusing temperature warm-up error
SC543: Fusing overheat error

If I could be of further assistance, let me know. If this helps or solves the issue, please rate it.
Thanks, Joe

it seem as if this has been a while but your machine may need to have this code reset through the SP mode on your machine. you may already have had someone do it but i can get you through it if you wish as SC 500 code can only be reset in this manner
