NVRAM TROUBLESHOOTING
Below is a list of common NVRAM related issues and trouble shooting steps to follow. Please place a check mark in the box next to appropriate symptom and which troubleshooting procedures have been done. The NVRAM reset procedures are also included in the bulletin for the C450/C351/C250/C252/C300/C352 should all other attempts to reset the NVRAM fail. If after going through the troubleshooting procedures the NVRAM is still unrecoverable then, follow the online ordering procedures for requesting a replacement NVRAM from KMBS. C250/C252/C300/C350/C351/C450 NVRAM trouble codes (C-D3xx codes) can occur at any time. Mostly these codes happen when updating firmware. A NVRAM Data Restore procedure was announced a few months ago to address these codes: Stop, 0, 7, 1, 3, 9, * What this procedure does is take a good image of the NVRAM off the MFP board (created when you performed the NVRAM Data Backup) and restore it to the NVRAM. There are approximately 30 registers that can be corrupt, so the above procedure may have to be done 30 times. If you suspect a corrupt NVRAM DO NOT perform the NVRAM Data Backup. This will take the corrupt NVRAM image and back it up to the MFP board. If this is done and the NVRAM is replaced the corrupt data you just backed up will be transferred to the new NVRAM. If this is the case then the NVRAM and MFP board will have to be replaced as a set.
IMPORTANT:
Stuck on hour glass screen Incorrect meters When performing the NVRAM restore procedure the codes repeat themselves.
One thing that has been noticed is these machines seem to be highly susceptible to voltage sags and spikes. It is HIGHLY recommended to install a quality power line conditioner on these machines.
C-D36E Install Phase 3.01 f/w (H5 or H6 depending on model) C-E002 Install Phase 3.01 f/w (H5 or H6 depending on model)
If you suspect a corrupt NVRAM please try performing a Data Clear. This can be found in the Tech Rep mode. Please note that all programmed addresses will be cleared. Please backup the address data using PageScope Web Connect to backup the data before performing the Data Clear. If NVRAM replacement is necessary please be aware that the meters may not be transferred and they might be reset to zero. This is unrecoverable and the correct meters cannot be inputted.

Codes C-3C00 through C-3C40 indicate a corrupt BRU Codes C-3C50 through C-3C90 indicates a problem with the PWB-C board or the scanner to mainbody cable.
8050/CF5001/C500 The NVRAM for the C500 cannot be replaced in the field. The only way to correct a corrupt NVRAM is to send the OACB, NVRAM, and PRCB into Konica Minolta to be reset. Known defective NVRAM symptoms:
Meters or default adjustment values are extremely high Adjustments do not hold after powering the machine Off/On
On the Black and White machines you can make sure that the NVRAM is bad by swapping a good NVRAM from another machine in the same product family. This will save significant time and expense in getting back the machine in working condition. bizhub 200/250/350 Common symptoms when NVRAM replacement may be necessary:
