It's not in service mode, but rather in the 'self diagnostic menu'. Access it as follows:
Press "clear modes", 1 9 9 3, "clear/stop" (5 times).

** Do not try any other adjustments in this mode...only touch screen

Its an older machine, normally pretty reliable. Look for a service history with the machine to see if the machine was under a service contract and well taken care of. I would try and get one with a total meter count of under 400k.

Check the fuser section, probably the sensors.

Ricoh has the manual online. The scanner wants to scan to a folder that has been SHARED, on a computer somewhere. This setup happens easiest by accessing the printer from a computer, rather than the input pad on the machine. the address will be similar to http://192.168.xx.x/web/user/en/websys/webArch/mainFrame.cgi, and this address goes into the address bar (NOT search) of your browser.

The directions in the Ricoh manual will give you the specifics....

print a config page and it should be listed on there

open printer properties of some printer and select PORT, go on ADD PORT, and create IP port, then assign it to Canon Ir 3025. Be sure that the same IP, Subnet and gateway are on PC and copier. Under cmd run ping comand, eg. ping 192.168.1.100, and if you have replay without 100 % loss it would be OK.
