I have a ricoh aficio cl7000 and there is a error
No, the PCU is separate from the toner. It is basically the drum imaging unit, and it can easily be replaced if you have a new one. When you open the printer's front door there are a row of black units running diagonally down the front of the copier -- the black PCU is the upper left most one.
You can buy a new black PCU from your local dealer, or else you can find one online from many different sites. Make sure you get the black one -- the color PCUs are separate.
How do you refill fuser
It is a fuser oil cartridge. When you replace it the counter gets reset automatically. It is located on top of the fuser unit. This is the part that gets hot and is located right where the paper exits the printer. It is accessed from the left side upper doors. Here is a link to a site that sells the unit as well as all the parts and supplies for your printer. The top picture on this link is the fuser oil cartridge so you can see what it looks like which will assist you in locating the unit in your printer.
Installation instructions are included in the box with the new oil cartridge.

I get a magenta strip (horizontal on A4/letter
If the stripe is only Magenta in color then I would highly suspect the Magenta Drum Unit to be the cause. All 4 color drums in these machines are interchangable so you COULD take the Magenta drum out and swap it with the Cyan or other color to see if the color of the stripe changes from Magenta to Cyan. These drums are pretty cheap at around $50.00 so if it were me I would just order one and replace it. If you want to try the swap then just open the front door and look for the grey color plastic bar that runs from upper left down to the lower right. Flip the green handle over that is close to the upper left end. Then loosen the 2 screws at either end of the grey bar. Lift up the bar and then you will see the Drum and Developer Units. The Drum units have the little green tab on the upper right side of the unit. The Developer Units have the green loop "handle" on them. Locate and remove the Magenta drum (just look for the magenta colored Developer Unit and the Magenta Drum is just above it) and whatever color drum you want to swap it with and switch the 2 around. Close the grey bar and secure the 2 screws, close the green handle and the front door and test.
The testing is not really necessary tho as the problem I am sure is the drum unit.

My Ricoh CL7000 is saying
It could be a clog in the toner tube, but the most likely (and easiest to fix) problem is the magenta DV unit. Replace the magenta DV unit, turn the machine off and back on, and if it still says add magenta toner open and close the toner cover so that it can load toner, then your problem should be gone.
On the Ricoh CL 7200 there is an error code sc386....
sc386 = an error with the black developer. This could be caused by something in the DV unit itself, or the black toner. If you've just replaced either one of these recently, try reinstalling them and resetting the machine. Otherwise, the black development unit probably needs to be replaced.
How to solve error SC471 on my Ricoh alficio
This is a transferbelt home position error.
Book says:
1. Turn the main switch off and on.
2. Reset the transfer belt unit.
3. Clean or replace the transfer belt
sensor.
4. Replace the transfer belt contact
motor.
5. Check the contact and release
mechanism of the transfer belt unit.
My guess is cleaning will solve it.
open the front door and sing don the green lever
locate the 2 screws at the top and bottom of the unit and remove them.
remove the cleaning unit 1 screw and a thmb lever slide the unit out (its on rails) wipevacum and/or blow clean the unit and re assemble
also clean the connector that it plugs to in the back of the machine
(q-tip)
if it still appears belt or unit will need to be replaced
I am getting SC412 on my Ricoh Aficio 1224C, how
sc412 on a 1224 is 2nd transfer (paper transfer) disconnection (+).
The possible causes are:
- The right cover is open
- The transfer roller contact mechanism is broken
- A bad high voltage supply board
- A bad BICU-to-HVSB cable
Parts for the 1224 will be obsolete soon if they are not already, so you're probably better off upgrading to a newer copier if closing that right cover and resetting the machine doesn't fix it.
