[Error Code] CF000 on multiple Kyocera FS-1135

[adycrs]

None of these machines have DIMM installed, so the DIMM contacts solution can't be aplied. Also can't be a bad firmware because some time just starts and is good to go. Can someone confirm that is all about bad contacts on some wire between mainboard and panel? Can be identified and localized...?

Re: CF000 on multiple Kyocera FS-1135

We have seen generic toner cartridges cause this code on other models. Not sure why this happens, but it might be a place to start.

10X for your quick suggestions, but the question still remains: why and what? Why should be the cartridge (?) if 10 seconds later, after few power on / off - the printer is fully working ? I just replace the cartridge with an original one from another machine and nothing! And again, why should be the cable responsible for this situation, or bad contact on either PWB if nothing gets moved or touched except the power button? ... It very annoying ! On both sides of the cable I bend every pin aside to force them to make contact better then default position ... And still nothing ! ! Anyway, i'll keep trying !

Re: CF000 on multiple Kyocera FS-1135

Thanks to some russian guys from an known tech forum, I just find out that these issues is related to bad firmware. I have in my possesion some other machines branded by Utax which have an moddified firmware, and yes, none of them have these kind of problems! And to say no more words - I just count down the necessary time for every machine to start up, to intialize, and suprise > the FS-1135MFP has a very short time for every step - ADF, lamp, main engine and so on..., is acting like a machine with a cut down firmware trying to skip some of the steps . . . I'll keep you in touch!

Re: CF000 on multiple Kyocera FS-1135

FINALLY I DID IT!!! I have requested through some Kyocera dealer a new firmware for these printers with no succes, so, after multiple search over internet and with my best friend google I finally found the firmware on these website ! Grab the correct firmware as soon as possible, either for 1130MFP or 1135MFP or BLA BLA BLA, use NetView from Kyocera website / Network Print Monitor v5.5.0513 from Utax, connect your printer using LAN cable, open Network Print Monitor, right click on printer - choose Advanced then go to Device Network Settings, on login page use Admin as user/password then close de window with OK or Cancel. Now right click again on selected printer, go to Advanced and choose these time Upgrade firmware! Next window after warning messages choose as flash firmware file with NWDL name on it, and voila ! You now have a new and working printer!!!
If anyone need more help on these steps, please let me know! SUCCES ! ! !

Well great you get the machine up and running . Above you were doubting firmware would fix the issue. So firmware updates does solve issues and would be a logical step to do in these modern machines. If you look at a kyocera firmware update bulletin, you would see the number of fixes it list and sometime the list can be long. I suspect this would be similar in other brands.

Re: CF000 on multiple Kyocera FS-1135

I did doubt regarding bad firmware before because, except russian peopple from kyocera-toner.ru/forum/, nobody else pointed the finger at! And about firmware description I don't have acces to official support site on kyocera to get such information..., so my doubts about was reasonable I think!
