    One suggestion, throw it away. Coming from a Ricoh engineer back when these machines were new, I have seen more problems from this model machine than I have with any other color copier combined. Sounds like your problem is because there is excess toner that has fallen on the charge corona unit and needs to be taken and cleaned thoroughly.

    About a year or so later after the 1224c was released, Ricoh started offering a "buy back" program for these machines.
