Hello,
Is there anyone who might have worked on a Minolta RP603Z microfilm
reader/printer over the years? I have a machine that is giving a
constant C2 error (High Voltage transformer malfunction error). This
problem used to occur very intermittently but has now become constant.
Any ideas?
No one anywhere near here knows how to fix this old machine and I would
like to get it going for the local Genealogy centre
TIA

Does it work or not when it errors out?

I'm not familiar with the machine, but have had the same problem with
other machines (different error code number but the same error). The
most common cause if it is laser based would be the corona wire shorting
or arcing against metal. Certain models of Toshiba copiers have this
problem often.

Thanks for that, I'll check it and make sure there isn't some
contamination etc in that area.

Hi Homer,
Error stops the machine instantly when it appears. Paper is part way
through when this happens but the error code is not paper related. On
this machine all error code stop the machine instantly.

The problem sounds exactly like what happens to Toshiba copiers. They
also stop working with the paper part way through. A quick fix is to
either shorten the corona wire or shorten tne tensioner spring. The
error code on them is C970
