Ensure you use TCP/IP to print NOT AppleTalk and you should not have an issue. The LPD/LPR queue name is PR1

I think the F5 error is a fuser failure error. Check that the fuser is seated correctly in the printer. If the error does not come up all the time perhaps you can check the fuser is getting hot. If available perhaps try substituting the fuser for a replacement known good fuser to fully identify the fuser as the cause of the error

I have the same printer and run Linux Mint 13. Here's what I did:Went to http://foo2slx.rkkda.com/ and followed the instructions for installing a Lexmark c500n.Opened a browser and went to http://localhost:631 (the CUPS admin page). => CUPS for Administrators => Adding Printers and ClassesAdd printer.Follow the instructions until you reach a page with "Or Provide PPD File" at the bottom. Click "Choose File". Navigate to where you unpacked the foo2zjs driver, there should be a folder in there called PPD: you want Lexmark-C500.ppdSet what defaults you want do some printing.When you have finished marvelling, perhaps give a thought to donating to the chap at foo2zjs for his hard work...

call the company Dascom they'll send you the x64 driver.

Hi thereOn the internet is a manual MANUALSONLINE.COM in case you do not find your manual.Kolbrun

We are having the same problem also. We have sent one cartridge back to supplier for replacement but now the other two color cartridges are starting to go grainy / stripy. I am not happy with the tallygenicom 8108N colour laser printer but we have spent a fortune on it with new cartridges all round. I have shaken the cartridge and that did nothing at all. Is anyone else having this problem.

First is worth checking the C (cyan) toner is not causing the problem with printing, the easiest way to do this is to print a configuration or test page via the menu on the printer to see if it will print. If the printer will print a page via its menu it should then be capable of printing from the computer system,

The Menu / Test Page can be printed in the following way;

• Put the printer OFFLINE
• Press the MENU/ENTER button
• The display should read
• Press the MENU/ENTER button
• The display should read
• Press the MENU/ENTER button

The printer should print a page, if it does not it sounds like the cyan toner is empty and is stopping the printer printing.

If the Menu / Test page prints ok this indicates the problem may be connectivity or driver related.

The first thing I would say is there are issues with printing to the the 8008 from Mac's particularly with the Intel processors.
There are also issues with versions 10.4 and over.

Some suggestions,

1. Print using TCP/IP, ensure the printer has a IP Address set and also the port on the Mac is set to the same IP address. (dont use Apple Talk)
2. Ensure you have the driver for the 8008 (not the IP8008) the IP8008 driver will not print to the 8008 and vice versa.
3. Try printing from a simple application for example Sticky Notes, just to see if the problem may be down to the size of data files.

I would suspect if the printer is still printing and feeding paper OK the problem may be related to one of the toner cartridges being stiff or partially seized.
From memory I believe the most likely toner to cause the problem is the black toner (or the yellow), but you can identify which toner is causing the problem by doing the following;;

1. Open the front cover (the one you access the toner through) after a few seconds close the cover. The printer should go through a self test.
   If the printer makes a griding noise during this self test and warm up phase this helps with identifying the cause.
2. Open the front cover again, this time remove the top toner cartridge
3. Close the front cover with the top toner missing
4. Listen for the noise heard in step 1, if no noise is heard it is likely the top toner needs to be replaced.
5. If the noise is heard with the top toner removed, replace this in the printer and remove the second toner.
6. Again close the front cover and listen or the noise, if it is heard the problem is with the second toner.
7. Repeat this process for the third and fourth toners to see if one of these may be causing the problem.

After you have identified which toner may be causing the problem, you may wish to try gently tapping the cartridge.

An unorthodox method of solving the problem if you are feeling brave and don't mind sweeping up toner!!!!!!!! You may wish to drop the toner cartridge (GENTLY) from waist height to the ground.
This may dislodge any toner jamming the cartridge and will resolve the problem - It will also spill a bit of toner on the ground so you have been warned!

You can print a configuration page this will show you the current IP Address set in the printer, this Can be printed in the follwoign way;

• Place printer OFFLINE
• Press MENU / ENTER button
• The display should read TEST MENU (if it does not press > repeatedly until it does)
• Press MENU / ENTER button
• Press > until CONFIG PAGE is seen.
• Press MENU / ENTER

The printer will print out a configuration page this will show the network settings

As for the svc e9 means.

Hi there

The error indicated on the 8008, ‘SVC E9’ indicates the printer is not detecting the OPC belt as rotating in the printer. The printer ‘looks’ for two black squires on the left side of the OPC Belt (as viewed from the front of the printer) if the printer does not ‘see’ black squires the printer indicates the SVC E9 error.

If the printer is displaying the SVC E9 error the most likely cause is something to do with the OPC Belt, normally removing the OPC belt from the printer then re-seating the belt would resolve the problem in most cases, as the OPC belt may not be locating correctly in the printer.
Unfortunately you have already removed the OPC Belt from the printer without resolving the problem, it may however be worth removing the OPC belt again and to look at the green reflective surface to see if there any damage or if the green surface is fairly central and is no skewed or bent in any way.

Depending on which position the OPC belt stops in you may see the black squares down the left side of the belt, if you can see these and they don’t look damaged or scratched the printer should detect the OPC belt ok, so the problem may lie with the sensor on the printer its self.

Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one.

You can change the colour setting in the printer driver to Black Only, this means you will only print Black and White using only the black toner.
To make this change on Windows XP;

Open the Printers and Faxes Folder.
Right Click on the printer driver for the 8008.
Select Printing Preferences.
Click on the Color/Print Quality Tab.
In the Color Mode section select the B&W radio button.
Click on the APPLY button

This should change the pritner driver to print only black and white.
