How to fix black or white streaks on Ricoh Printer copies?
Black or white streaks on copies from your Ricoh Printer can appear if the original is dusty, or the exposure glass or platen plate is dirty. Clean the original, especially if it's hand-drawn, film, translucent paper, or a very long original. Also, clean the exposure glass or platen plate.
What to do if my Ricoh Printer shows 'Original is being scanned by another function'?
This message on your Ricoh Printer means that a function other than the copier, like the Document Server, is currently in use. To resolve this, cancel the job in progress. For example, press [Exit], then press the [Document Server] key, and then press the [Clear/Stop] key. When the message "The Clear / Stop key was pressed. Are you sure you want to stop scanning?" appears, press [Stop].
What to do if my Ricoh Printer cannot detect original size?
If your Ricoh Printer cannot detect the original size, it may be because the original is not placed correctly or the machine is unable to detect the size. Ensure the originals are placed correctly. If the issue persists, manually select a paper tray without using [Auto Paper Select], and specify a reproduction ratio without using [Auto Reduce / Enlarge].
Why does my Ricoh Printer say 'Memory is full'?
The Ricoh Printer displays 'Memory is full' because its memory is exhausted while scanning originals or performing a function. The number of originals that can be stored depends on their size and the function settings. Here's what you can do: * If Sort is selected, press [Exit] to copy the scanned originals, then copy the remaining originals. * If using the Job Preset function, check the number of preset jobs and try scanning the originals again.
What to do if my Ricoh Printer shows 'Authentication has failed'?
The 'Authentication has failed' message on your Ricoh Printer indicates that either the login user name or login password entered is incorrect, or the machine cannot perform authentication. In this case, you should contact the user administrator or the administrator.
What does 'Check paper size' mean on my Ricoh Printer?
The 'Check paper size' message on your Ricoh Printer indicates that an irregular paper size is set. Check the settings for Reduce/ Enlarge, and then try again. If you press the [Start] key, the copy will start onto the selected paper.
What to do if my Ricoh Printer says 'Exceeded max. number of pages per file'?
This message on your Ricoh Printer means the number of scanned pages exceeds the Document Server's capacity per file. Press [Store File] to store scanned pages as a file in the Document Server. If you don't want to store them, press [No], and the scanned data will be deleted.
What to do if my Ricoh Printer shows 'File being stored exceeded max. number of pages per file'?
This message on your Ricoh Printer indicates that the scanned originals have too many pages to store as one document. Press [Exit], and then store again with an appropriate number of pages.
What does 'Maximum number of sets is n' mean on my Ricoh Printer?
The message 'Maximum number of sets is n' on your Ricoh Printer means that the number of copies exceeds the maximum copy quantity. You can change the maximum copy quantity from [Max. Copy Quantity] in [General Features] under [Copier / Document Server Features].
