Oki C5200N Consumable Reset
If you are replacing your consumable due to an error message on the printer saying its life is out, or if you have a malfunctioning consumable, you will need to reset the life remaining percentage on the printer. These percentages are not stored in any way by the consumables and are kept in the printers NV Ram. Below are the steps to reset all of the counts (ie fuser, belt, toner, etc) at once. If you are using the network port, please make a copy of your settings prior to doing a reset. You may need to reassign your network settings after the reset. This is not common, but possible. If you are using the usb port, it will remain unaffected. Here are the steps for the consumable resets.
1. Turn machine on while pushing and holding the two (+/-) menu buttons at same time. 2. Menu window will show "OKI USER" 3. Scroll to " Engine Dialog Mode" is indicated. Push ENTER button. 4. "Diagnostic Mode xx.xx.xx S-Mode is indicated. 5. Scroll to "NV-Ram initial" is indicated. Push ENTER. 6. Window shows "NV-Ram- Initial Table 1". 7. Push ONLINE and ENTER Buttons simultaneously and HOLD for 10 seconds after you see "Executing Reset" appear in menu window. 8. Restart printer. All toner, drum, fuser and transfer belt figures return to 100%
