Hello!
I advise you to take the all tray out and take a look inside. Probably it have any obstruction on it.

Error de LD
Un error de LD continúa durante 0,5 segundos. (Después de detectarse un error de LD, se escribe una liberación de error de LD en el circuito GAVD durante la monitorización.).

• Unidad LD defectuosa

UNIDAD LD
Dos diodos láser en la unidad LD emiten 2 rayos láser de escaneo principal.
Contar con dos láseres acelera la creación de imágenes. También permite al
motor poligonal funcionar a menor velocidad, lo que reduce el ruido y prolonga la
vida del motor.

Hello Peter,
Once the device has been neglected for oil long enough you will get this error code. Usually people don't wait until the code occurs. You WILL INDEED need to go into service mode. To do this,you will need to follow a fluid 3 step process. First locate the "CLEAR MODES" key located obove the 9 key pad. It is yellow. Now locate the red STOP button located below the 9 key pad.Ok, to enter service mode you will need to press "Clear /Modes"and release,then press the numbers "1,0,7" in a 3 step sequence and release, then press the red STOP button and HOLD it down till the device beeps. The screen will change and say service mode. Press "COPIER". The screen will change again. Using the keypad press 5,8,1,0 and then press the pound sign {#}. You will be prompted/asked to EXECUTE. Press EXECUTE. Now unplug the device while in service mode after the execution of the 5810. Wait a sec, plug her up, and you are done. Have a good day and let fixya know I helped. :-) SPINAL

• 1: Open the front cover of the machine.
• 2: Pull the lever and open the green cover.
• 3: Gently pull out the toner cartridge.
• 4: Hold a new cartridge and shake it 10?12 times.
Note: ? Do not touch the "metal contact point" of the cartridge, or it may be damaged.
• 5: Insert the cartridge horizontally, and gently push it in completely.
• 6: Close the green cover.
• 7: Close the front cover of the machine.

SC 451 ? Do not exist... May be SC 541 ? Fusing error...

GO INTO SP MODE AND RESET OIL COUNTER

No! There is no switch to reset after a jam.
Make sure that there is no paper in the machine. Example: Finisher, trays, etc...
After that make sure that the doors are properly closed.
If you still have the same message probably you have a broken door switch.
Hope this helps you

you have to download pdf file first then print it

SC 542: Bad melting temperature. The code can not disappear by itself, it must enter the program mode of the machine and delete it with mode 5810.
If the code comes back, there is a heating problem.

Is the paper in the tray landscape-oriented or portrait-oriented? If it's landscape-oriented (short edge is fed first) then you might just need to realign the paper fences. There is a screw holding down the gear in between them -- if you remove that screw you can move the fences so that they're both lined up correctly. (Push them both in all the way or out all the way, then reinsert the gear and screw it back down.)

If the paper is portrait-oriented, it may be an adjustment that will have to be made by a Ricoh service technician. It is a simple adjustment to make, and should only take a minute or two if you can have a tech look at it.

Attached is an image of the page from the service manual on how to remove the PCU.

This error code is related to a Insufficient oil.
The fusing oil tank is in the rear of the machine.
You have to call Ricoh to supply the oil.
See you

Hello Clara!
What do you don't understand about the operation panel??
It gives you like step to step.
On the right corner of the display shows you a wizard that you can press next-next-next.

Try this:
Control panel - printers - Double click it (in the printer) - Click print and change to on-line.
I think it may work

There are two things to try the first is to open the printer by going under my printers and double clicking the printer. Click printer in the top right and make sure that "user printer offline" is not selected. If that is not the case then restart the printer and computer at the same time, and that should clear the connection between them.
