This RTB outlines the major differences between the Russian-C1 and Russian-C2.
Overview:
The R-C2 is intended as the successor model to the R-C1. The mechanical components and design of these two models are nearly identical. In addition, the electrical system of the R-C2 employs GW architecture.

Fax option: R-C2 vs. A-C2
The fax options are very similar. However, the following differences exist because of the GW architecture used in the R-C2:
- Installable units:
A-C2: 2 SG3, or 1 SG3 and 1 SiG4 (simultaneously).
- Default unit for scanning resolution:
Printer option: R-C2 vs. A-C2
As with the fax, the printer options are very similar. However, the following differences exist because of the GW architecture used in the R-C2:
- The RPCS driver for the R-C2 ­The Overlay feature will soon be added to the Edit tab (per field requests). The HDD for the R-C2 is an option, but is required to use the following features with the printer. (Note that these features are always available with the A-C2, since the HDD comes standard).

Net file applications can be used with the R-C2 even if the HDD is not installed. However, they cannot with the A-C2.
2. Scanning Memory:
The total scanning memory on the R-C2 is less than on the A-C2, so there are greater limitations with respect to the maximum scannable size for each dpi setting.

This RTB explains the use of the Capture function on the Russian-C2, which is available from the 1st lot of mass production.
Section 2 below shows the necessary hardware for each configuration and Section 3 shows the necessary SP/UP Mode settings.
1. Overview of the Capture Function:
Once the Russian-C2 is connected to the eCabinet, the Capture function enables users to store copier, fax, scanner and printer documents there with such ID attributes as Owner, Name and Date. A web browser is used from the client PC to access documents stored in the eCabinet.
Even while the Russian-C2 is engaged in Capture file transfer, it is still possible to use all original Russian-C2 functions (copier, printer, fax, document server). In addition, note that the Document Server can be used in place of the eCabinet in the setup shown below.

3.2.2. SP5836-61 (Capture File Resend). Enables/disables resending of previously captured files to the eCabinet. When enabled, if the client PC operator accesses a Captured file stored in the eCabinet and sends it to the Russian-C2, the machine will resend this document to the eCabinet. This is to provide an extra safeguard for file backup. However if users wish to minimize network traffic and free up eCabinet memory, this function can be disabled.

Due to a scanner system limitation, sometimes the Scanner SP modes are not set to the defaults when the scanner option is installed or when the scanner firmware is updated. This results in blank scanned images.
So, please do a memory clear for the scanner application (Copier SP5-801-009) when installing the scanner option or updating the scanner firmware.

Retrofit information
We have received a few reports from the Japanese market concerning the following symptom when a technician installs the machine. So, we would like to inform you of a potential concern related to toner bottle installation.
SYMPTOM
When a new toner bottle is shaken and the cap is unscrewed, the inner cap pops off.
This might occur under the following conditions.
1. The toner bottle has been stored for a long time in a low temperature environment (such as an unheated warehouse in winter).
2. The temperature around the toner bottle suddenly increases by more than 25 degrees (Celsius).
3. The toner bottle is installed between 1 hour and 9 hours after the above condition has occurred.
CAUSE
The mechanism of the symptom is as follows.
1. The toner bottle is stored at a very low temperature. The air in the bottle cools and the bottle's internal air pressure decreases.
2. Air slowly leaks into the bottle until the bottle's internal pressure equalizes with the atmospheric pressure.
3. Later, the bottle is moved into a warm place (the temperature variation is over 25ºC.). The air in the bottle warms and the internal pressure increases.
4. When the bottle cap is removed, internal air pressure pops off the inner cap.
Note: There is no problem for toner bottles that have been stored at normal room temperatures.
SOLUTION
The toner bottle will be modified to change the opening process. (Effective date: the end of January 2002)
We will inform you of the details later.

ACTION
1. When moving toner bottles from a very low temperature environment, store the bottles in the office more than 1 day prior to use. This will allow the bottle's internal pressure to equalize with the atmospheric pressure.
2. If it is not possible to take the above action, please perform the following steps prior to installing the toner bottle.
1) Hold the toner bottle upright. (Do not shake it.)
2) Loosen the bottle cap (do not remove the cap completely at this time) and hold the cap for over 20 seconds (to prevent the cap from coming off).
3) Remove the cap and inner cap slowly (to reduce the air pressure in the toner bottle).
4) Reinsert the inner cap in the bottle and then install the bottle in the machine.
