Yes your MFP has had a fuser reload error. It's not permanent though. Sometimes the thermistors don't read the right temperature due to the thermistor getting excess toner built up on it or it gets moved away from the hot roller. This SC error usually can be reset by powering down the printer. It must be powered down correctly or you can corrupt the hard drive.
Hold the power button down on the operation panel until the screen goes dark. Then, physically turn the power switch off on the side of the unit. Once the unit has completely powered down and all lights are off, toggle the power switch back on. The unit should power back up normally. If the SC 542 returns, you'll have to have a technician check the fuser out.

SOURCE: Ricoh Aficio MP 2510 SC 541, SC 542 Errors

To clear level A SC codes such as this SC541, you need to
Enter SP mode, and then turn the main power switch off and on, only.
Please check if the thermistors are the proper ones and are installed correctly in their position properly.
This is also useful for SC542.
Please check the thermostats and fusing lamps for open circuit.

Good luck and please rate me, thanks.

SC542 is a warm up error from the fuser.

SC 870 is an address book error.

Turn the power off on the copier. Wait 30 seconds and then turn the power back on. See if it goes away.

Let me know if it doesn't.
