SC389 is a development gamma error in the magenta. There can be several causes for this error - a toner supply problem, incorrect toner used, a laser exposure problem etc. This is not likely to be an easy problem to fix unless you are experienced in such matters, so you may need to look for someone who can help out.

SOURCE: cause for error code sc560 on ricoh ap3850c

H there below is what is stated in the service manual and I suggest to change the power cord before the main PSU (Power Supply Unit)


SC 560 Zero Cross Error

When the power switch is turned on. The machine checks how many Zero-cross signals are generated during 500 ms. If the number of Zero-cross signals is more than 66 or less than 45 and the condition is detected more than 10 times this code is shown.

Cause is electrical noise in the supply from the power cord.
Solution

  • Change to another power wall socket
  • Change power cord
  • Replace main PSU (Power Supply Unit)
I hope this help you
Thanks J

SOURCE: RICOH 2015 error code sc 500

Main motor/ transport motor lock/ fusting motor error.

The only thing you can do is check for any obstructions in the machine.

That needs to be looked at by a service because the problem could be a motor, a pcb, or a power supply.

It can be a lot of troubleshooting to do.

Sc556

To reset fuser SC codes you need to enter Service Programme Mode and reset SP5-810 to 1, then turn the main switch off and on again. If you need help on entering SP mode etc. then take a look here.

Ricoh mp6500 sc670 error code

sc670 is an engine startup error. A lot of times if you reset the copier (turn it off with the orange switch on the left side of the front cover, then turn it back on) the error will go away. If it doesn't the BCU board may need to be replaced.
