Re: Error Code c0070

If the machine is throwing the C0070 code without the bottle being inserted than likely the worm gear of the little drive motor of the toner bottle holder is damaged.

If C0070 is only coming up with the bottle inserted, than the bottle may be wrong or damaged from previous attempts.

To reach the toner bottle holder ("hopper") mechanism you have to remove the rear cover.

The error code C0070 means that the toner hopper can not find it's home position for the toner bottle. Did you resently just add a new toner????/ If so, here's an idea to clear the problem. First remove the new toner bottle carefully, then turn the copier OFF and then back ON with the front door closed and the toner bottle out of the copier. Let the copier warm up to ready and make one copy > after that install the toner bottle once again and that should solve your problem. If it dos not, you may have the wrong toner bottle or try another new toner or you may have a problem with the hopper unit... Good Luck....

Main hopper toner replenishing motor M8 failure to turn.The output from toner bottle home position sensor does not go high within 5 seconds after M8 motor has been energized.Verify the conectors,sensor and motor.Open the front door,turn the toner bottle 1/4 turn clockwise manually with the bottle holder closed.Under the above condition does the toner bottle turn when the front door inter lock switch is turned on?NO - change the toner replenishing M8 motor.Does the toner bottle stop at home position after turning?NO- change PC35 toner bottle home position sensor.Recomanded use vacuum cleaner.

This service code C0070 is a universal code used by Konica Minolta to indicate a toner bottle rotation failure. These machines add toner by rotating the toner bottle that you install in the machine. Most of the time this code is caused by a toner cartridge that has been installed incorrectly or has become dislodged from it's holder. To clear the code open the front door or toner door and remove the toner cartridge/bottle from the machine. Close the toner door and turn the machine off then on to reset the code. Let the machine run. This may take several minutes and will allow the machine to bring the toner bottle receptacle into it's home position. Once the machine stops running completely, then you can re-install the toner cartridge. If the code does not come back you are ready to go. If the code came back after removing the toner but before you re-installed it then you have either a dirty rotation sensor or a bad toner drive motor and will need service.
If the code comes back after the cartridge is re-installed then there is either a priblem with the cartridge or with the toner bottle drive.
Most of the time though the problem will be resolved by the outlined procedure.

pLEASE DESCRIBE YOUR PROBLEM CORRECTLY.tHE 05 CODE REFER TO FUSING UNIT.Check or change the fuser unit components,clean the thermofuse and thermistors.

Power off the machine and gentlly take out the toner bottle. Then with the bottle out turn on the machine let the machine go thur its normal routine when the indicator comes on for toner install toner bottle. If the code comes back you have a problem with the Toner Bottle motor, gear, or Main Board.

Have you replaced the toner lately? I beleiv it is a toner motor fail to turn, check the toner bottle, remove it and reinstall the bottle.
Close up the machine and try it again.

Hope this works for you.

This could be a easy fix for you. Did you just add a new toner? If so, try this..... Remove the new toner bottle CAREFULLY, mahe sure the hole in the bottle is in the upward position. Once you have removed the bottle, Close the front door and turn the copier OFF then back On. Let the copier come to ready and reinstall the toner agian as it is displayed on the front cover or box. Then close the front door and try to make a copy. It should work for you... If not you most likely have a problem with the toner motor or the home position sensor for the toner bottle. You may have to call a service rep. to handle that problem. Good Luck...

What you need to do is to take the new toner out bottle out and close the front door and let the copier come to ready again and then try to reinstall the toner bottle again and run the copier... Basicly, the toner bottle was put in wrong and you have to let the hopper go back to home postion and then reistall the toner bottle
