NVRAM Troubleshooting
Certain models now have NVRAM resetting firmware available.
When replacing the NVRAM in a Konica Minolta engine, the electronic counters will be reset to zero.
This causes problems for proper billing and the VCare reporting system. NVRAM replacement MUST only
be done when the NVRAM data becomes corrupt.

If swapping a NVRAM between engines for troubleshooting purposes resolves the problem, it DOES NOT
necessarily mean the NVRAM data is corrupt. Proper troubleshooting should continue to identify the
setting in the NVRAM that needs to be changed to resolve the problem. This can include, but not limited
to DipSW / Parameter List settings and machine adjustments.

If proper troubleshooting has been identified that the NVRAM data is corrupt, the following steps MUST
be completed before NVRAM replacement will be authorized.

The NVRAM is memory storage with battery backup to hold changeable machine setting data. The
NVRAM does NOT perform any processing of data.
Issues when the NVRAM is incorrectly replaced
1. Replacing the NVRAM will NOT correct the following:
a. C-DCxx codes - This is a security related error.
i. The CSC must be contacted.
b. C-3C00 C-3C40 this is a security related error.
i. The CSC must be contacted.
c. C-3C50 C-3C90 this is a failed Scanner Board or Scanner Cable.
i. Contact the CSC if support is needed.
d. C-D3xx codes this can be recovered by using NVRAM Data Restore.
i. Reset the code by pressing stop-0-7-1-3-9. This will display a "*" on the LCD.
Press this button. This may have to be done up to 30 times.
e. License Management Error Occurred use repair operation (see Appendix A).
Known unrecoverable NVRAM symptoms
1. Stuck on Hourglass screen Check DIMMs first (see Appendix B).
2. Grossly incorrect meters or garbled data.
3. When performing NVRAM data restore the same codes keep appearing.
4. Settings do not hold when powering the machine off/on.
Before using the NVRAM Reset Tool be sure to print out management lists and record
any special settings the machine may have including network settings.
It may take some time to re-setup the machine if the NVRAM Reset Tool is used. Be sure
to thoroughly troubleshoot the problem before using the NVRAM Reset Tool

C6000/7000/6000L/70hc/8000
1. Install latest firmware.
2. NVRAM replacement on these models must be authorized from KMBT (Japan).
3. NVRAM replacement on these models is extremely rare.
4. The only known NVRAM issue is when the information on the Management Lists is garbled or
the meter counts are grossly wrong.
5. Check management lists from another working machine to see what settings are different. (Dip
Switch List).
C5500/5501/6500/6501/65hc
2. NVRAM replacement on these models must be authorized from KMBT (Japan).

a. Service => System 1 => Initialization.
3. Initialize the Fax (if a fax issue is occurring).
a. Service => Fax => Initialization.
4. These models perform a NVRAM data backup every hour. If the data in the backup does not
match the data in the NVRAM a C-D3xx will be shown and the restore procedure will have to be
performed.
a. Reset the code by pressing stop-0-7-1-3-9. This will display a "*" on the LCD. Press this
button. This may have to be done up to 30 times.
5. The only confirmed issue is when the screen freezes on the hourglass. If this happens, please
wait five minutes to see if the issue clears. If it is still stuck after 5 minutes replace the NVRAM.
Check the memory DIMMs before NVRAM replacement (see Appendix B).
(parameter sheets).
C550/650/451
NOTE: GCQ-J8 firmware can be used to reset the NVRAM without losing counter data. See Appendix C.
2. The only confirmed issue is when the screen freezes on the hourglass. If the machine gets stuck
on the hour glass please let it sit for 5 minutes. If it is still stuck after 5 minutes replace the
NVRAM. Check the memory DIMMs before NVRAM replacement (see Appendix B).

[Subject] NVRAM recovery card

[Content]

Following two functions are available on NVRAM recovery card to correct NVRAM failures in the
field.
- NVRAM initialize: All data except sales counter data will be initialized.
- NIC setting erase: Network setting will initialized to restart network function.
This card can be applied to the Color MFP products (C450/C351/C250/C252/C352/C300) which is
installed Phase2.01 system or later. Please follow below instruction when using NVRAM recovery
card.
Note: please use this card always after necessary processes are done as mentioned below.
- In case of Network problem
1.Do NIC setting erase with NVRAM recovery card for following problem.
- Network setting key will not appear in administrator mode.
- IP address setting will disappear after turning off/on the MFP.
2.If NIC setting erase does not help, Do NVRAM Initialize with NVRAM recovery card.
- In case of C-D3xx trouble
1.Attempt STOP,0,7,1,3,9, sequence to clear the trouble code
2.Update FW to Phase3.0 or later and do gradation adjustment if C-D36F is displayed.
3.Update FW to Phase3.01 or later and if C-D36E is displayed.
4.If above measurement does not help, Do NVRAM Initialize with NVRAM recovery card.
- In case of abnormal counter issue
1.Do NVRAM Initialize with NVRAM recovery card.
2.Replace NVRAM.
- In case of the other troubles than mentioning above.

OUTLINE

Store different types of settings information stored in NVRAM board (NRB) fromthe machine to the USB memory and can write it fromthe
USB memory to the machine. However, the setting data cannot be edited since it is encrypted.

Machine NVRAM (NRB) data import/export (Complete NRB collection for each serial number) can be performed fromthe import/export screen
of the service administrator web utilities Reference the appropriate model service manual for the procedure
