My Printer is a Aficio CL 3500N

I printed to my printer this morning and was printing just fine.

All of a sudden when I tried to print a simple Word Document it says Ricoh Aficio CL 3500N in the reading panel. No error code comes up. I have turned it off, unplugged it, changed the Waste Toner Bottle and tried to get it to respond by exiting, etc. Turned off Computer and then the printer to reset and it just keeps returning the to same thing on the panel. Ricoh Aficio CL 3500N - HELP - Any idea what it would be?

THank You - [email protected] Ramona

Q1 - Possibly, I have not seen an SC581 error before. Usually using too much power would give you something like an SC240 error "Power Supply Excessive". So it depends on the extent of the damage. You could also have to replace the main board, motors, etc.

Q2 - You will have to pull back the feeder tray, remove the back panel, there is a cover over the main board and the power supply is below it and fairly easy to get to. But if other components were damaged it could be a much more involved repair.

Aficio cl3500n error code SC411, the printer comes up with a error code, all button function locked

I remember a discussion on this code in an old thread somewhere. The agreed solution was to replace the whole transfer roller assembly because of a broken contact terminal in the discharge plate housing. I'd probably try that before a high-voltage board.3

My printer Ricoh aficio cl3500n does not print and all the lights on. Why?

The first step is to turn the machine off and then turn it back on. Do all the lights come right back on, or is it okay until you try to print to it?

If all the lights are on, there should be an error message appearing on the display. It might say out of paper, or out of toner, or a cover open, or it might show a code (such as "sc 501").

What is the code or error message that appears?

You need to enter service mode, (this really should be done by a ricoh tech) Turn off printer press and hold down online and escape and turn printer on, the panel should sho a 1 2 3, push 2 for engine and enter press 7 and enter 804 is the counters for supplies. #4 is the fuser press enter after the printer says execute. Back out with escape and 3 to exit, cycle power. -Carl
