Its an over load of information by the file.
here is the actual code: SC670 mistake Engine Response

  • Anonymous Jan 28, 2008

    Its always a good idea to ask for a fix along with a question about an error code...
    so whats going on is no response from the BCU at power on. Which means when the main power is turned on or the machine
    starts warming up from energy-saving mode, the controller does not receive a command signal from the BCU. So that could mean a
    • Loose connection
    • Defective controller
    • Defective BCU
    you can try these things:
    1. Turn the main switch off and on.
    2. Check the connection between the
    BCU and controller.
    3. Replace the controller.
    4. Replace the BCU.
    After replacing the BCU or controller, remove the NVRAM on the old board and put it on the new one.
    If you have not worked on these units before you may need the help of a shop.

I recently replaced the BCU board with one I had removed from another machine that we had to get rid of an error message SC670, which it did. The machine now boots up normally but when I try to print it the sheet jams just as it is entering the fuser. It seems that the fuser is not turning to accept the sheet, it is warming up but does not take the sheet in. Please give me your thoughts on this.

Unable to Print 4F
Hi there
Brother 4F
Access the internal maintenance mode by pressing the Menu/Set button, then press * 2 8 6 4 within 2 seconds. This should put you in the maintenance mode menu. Enter 80, then scroll down with the arrow down (round) key. You'll find an entry listed as purge count. If number is over 6000, enter 2 7 8 3.

This will reset the purge count value. Then the printer will restart, hopefully without the annoying cannot clean message.

All I ask is please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

I have a xerox dc12 with error message please turn machine off and on again 9-363 have tried several times but no good! what else can I do?
That's a process problem with that machine.
May require a service call .ON and OFF is pretty much all a customer can do and wait for it to setup.
NOTE: The problem occurs because of the trickle development system in the machine, making extended lengths of black and white copies / prints does not allow the black developer housing to purge itself of excess waste Toner (Dry Ink) and Developer. There are two solutions for the problem:
  • Make 1,000 copies / prints of a black and white job, then make 150 copies / prints of full color. Continue making 1,000 copies / prints of the black and white job, then 150 full color, and so on, until the entire black and white job is complete.
  • Make extended jobs in groups of 100 by making 100 copies / prints of the black and white job, then allowing the machine to cycle down (return to 'Ready') and making the next 100 copies / prints. Continue in this pattern until the entire black and white job is complete.
