Re: 7545 registering incorrect finisher type

Thanks! I will try that right now. I did not see that there was a new October Firmware as well so that's good news!

 

I will let you know if this works.

Since you know how to get in to set NVM settings, if you also know how to do a Forced Altboot, I would highly suggest doing so with the latest firmware located here.

7545 registering incorrect finisher type

Product Name: Other - specify product in post

Greetings all!

 

We have 2 7545's and 1 7535. One of the 7545's (5 tray bypass with Xerox Professional Finisher) is an off lease with 200k impressions on it and it's super clean. However there is one perplexing issue I am running into, which is that it thinks it has a offsetting catch tray instead of a professional finisher. The mystery even gets deeper....

 

The onboard configuration report reads for hardware (it says it has an advanced finisher):

Fax Card:Not Present
Extended Fax Card:Not Present
Fax Card Memory Size:0MB
Foreign Interface Card:Not Present
Net Controller RAM:2048MB
Net Controller Disk Size:used=4231MB/total=160041MB
Finisher Type:Xerox Advanced Finisher
Finisher Punch:None
Finisher FolderNot Present

 

However, when going to the IP address of the machine and pulling up that configuration report it reads the following (now it says it has an ofsetting catch tray):

 

Fax Card:Not Present
Extended Fax Card:Not Present
Fax Card Memory Size:0MB
Foreign Interface Card:Not Present
Net Controller RAM:2048MB
Net Controller Disk Size:used=4231MB/total=160041MB
Finisher Type:Offsetting Catch Tray
Finisher Punch:Not Present
Finisher FolderNot Present

 

So when you pull up the driver to attempt to use the finisher, it is default and locked as an ofsetting catch tray. When I use the WSD port that allows me to override the drivers settings and set it to use a professional finisher etc etc, I attempt to print a booklet, and the printer prints an error that reads "The job was deleted because the client requested a printing function that is not available on the system". 

 

I am pretty stumped at this point, I assume that someone messed around with the NVM chains, however I did a full initialize, then I even wrote NVM 616-014 to 2 and reset the whole machine, still the same settings after getting the machine set back up.

 

Any help would be much appreciated!
