Solución paso a paso

  1. Power Cycle: Turn off the bizhub C258 from the main power switch and disconnect the power cord for 1 minute.
  2. Unit Inspection: Open the front door, remove the developing unit, and check if the motor spins freely.
  3. System Reset: Reinstall the unit, close all doors, and power on the equipment to check if the C-2558 code is cleared.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Clean residual toner dust every 3 months. Avoid using cheap compatible toners that can contaminate the developer. Keep your firmware updated to ensure optimal motor control.
