Retrofit information
From October 2001 production, printer controller product codes have corresponded to the
duplex model of the K-C1. For this reason, the product codes have been changed as
follows:
OLD NEW
B405-10 B405-50
B405-14 B405-54
B405-15 B405-55
B405-17 B405-57
B405-22 B405-62
B405-24 B405-64
B405-26 B405-66
B405-27 B405-67
The new printer controllers have all the functions of the older ones. In addition, the
marketing group has not sold the old controllers since the launch of the duplex model
K-C1. From now on we will issue MBs only for the new printer controllers.
The differences between old and new are as follows:
Description Old P/N New P/N
Controller Board B4055170 B4055175
eration Manual B4058607 B4058857
O
We will also issue an MB concerning the above information.
