Field notes
- Same architecture as C4510 at a lower process speed. SP map and SC meanings carry over.
- Do not install C4510 PCUs or fusers by guess — check the part number. Some units look identical and are not.
- SOP 2.5 SP entry is 806182#. If # does not take: Reset, 806182, hold C.
PM interval
PCU ~60k, fuser ~120k (confirm PM table)

Enter SP mode
SOP / IM C: Reset → 806182 → hold C. Then 5812# (phone on counter), 5810# (SC reset), 5990# (print SMC).
SC reset (SP5-810)
Clear a latched Level A/B service call after the repair is actually done.
Read SC history
The standing SC is rarely the whole story. History tells you what led up to it.
Forced process control
Run MUSIC / process control after PCU, developer, ITB, or ID sensor work.
Developer initialization
Init TD sensor / developer after a PCU or developer swap. Skipping this is a textbook SC325.
