Choose ‘Tools’ and you will see 3 columns of choices… the one on the left will have 4 choices… choose the top one “System Settings”. The middle column has the heading “Group” and has a scrollable list. For “System Settings” you will see these choices: – ‘Common Service Settings’ This is the one we’ll be concentrating on. – ‘Copy Service Settings’ – ‘Connectivity & Network Setup’ – ‘Print Service Settings’ – ‘Scan Service Settings’ – ‘Fax Service Settings’ – ‘Email / Internet Fax Service Settings’ – ‘Mailbox Service Settings’ – ‘Job Flow Service Settings’ – ‘Stored Document Settings’ From that middle column, choose ‘Common Service Settings’ to get to most of the good stuff.

Here you will find two pages of choices in the form of buttons. Among other choices, you will find: – Initialize Hard Disk – NVM Read / Write – Adjust memory settings & reset some fault conditions (read below under “Resetting some Fault Codes”). – IO Check – Access to Component Control for testing sensors, motors, etc. – Max Setup – Tools for setting up the color calibration & Registration. – Adjustment / Others: Reset Counters for things like the Transfer Roller or Belt Cleaner Assembly (read below under “Resetting Counters”). Resetting Counters: For these models, you will need to get into the “UI Diagnostic Mode”: as explained above. Once you are in the Tools tab… choose the following from left to right: System Settings, Common Service Settings, and then in the right column, scroll down and touch “Maintenance / Diagnostics”. Scroll down and touch the button for “Adjustment / Others”. There you’ll find two choices: ‘Machine ID / Billing’ and ‘HFSI Counters’. Touch the ‘HFSI Counters’ button (High Frequency Service Items). Here you’ll be prompted to enter a “Chain-link” number… enter the appropriate number from this list: 1. 954-801 = IBT Belt (Transfer Belt) 2. 954-802 = 2nd BTR (Transfer Roll) 3. 954-803 = IBT Cleaner (Transfer Belt Cleaner Assembly) 4. 954-804 = Fuser Module Then press ‘Confirm’ and some data shows up, including the current count on the part in question.
