There are 2 versions of the Xerox 212 & 214 copiers:
Type 1 – those originally sold through US dealers                                          ** cartridge part #: 113R180 or 113R181
Type 5 – those originally sold through Retail Outlet stores                        ** cartridge part #: 113R287

The “J8 error code” is a result of the machine wanting a different type cartridge other than what you just have installed.
This can be easily changed through the machine menu/diagnostics.

To set the machine up to accept the cartridge ‘Type’ which you want to use:

1    First, with the power off, remove the Copy Cartridge, then close the Door Transport.

2     To enter diagnostics: Hold down ‘ 0 ‘ while turning on the Power, the console will light up.

3    Press ‘Stop/Clear’, the lights will shut off,   —   will appear in the display

4    Wait 30 seconds for the optics to finish initializing before you enter the diagnostic code.
(this is extremely important since interrupting the optics initialization can result in terrible noises & other unpleasant symptoms)

5     After the optics complete initializing, enter “406″ followed by ‘Print’

6    Turn off the power and install the new / intended Copy Cartridge.

7    Turn on the machine. It will now accept the ‘type’ of cartridge which you have in the machine.

Please let us fill all of your toner cartridges needs at InkCloners.com

The Minolta 2300W high-capacity toner cartridge can print about 4,500 at 5% page coverage. Its standard-capacity toner cartridge prints a maximum of 1,500 at 5% page coverage. Download the MagicColor 2300W manual for a complete explanation and other service procedures and troubleshooting tips.

When it’s time for you to change and replace the toner, “COLOR Toner Low” shows in the Status Display monitor. The Status Display Monitor software is necessary to rotate the carousel and change the appropriate low toner. The software can be downloaded here: Minolta-QMS Status Monitor Utility. Printing can proceed although the warning shows up. Nonetheless, the color progressively fades out, so replace the toner cartridge at the earliest opportunity.

To install the Status Monitor, unzip the file and open the folder. From there look for the “setup” and double click it to run the application. Make sure your printer is attached and powered on.

In case you have changed the toner cartridge, the laser printer will have to complete a calibration cycle. In case you open the printer cartridge door prior to the “Ready” indicator on the control panel lights up along with the “Error” indicator turning off, the printer halts and will repeat the calibration routine.

You may find compatible Minolta-QMS 2300W toner cartridges at InkCloners.com at reasonable prices. Changing the Minolta 2430DL cartridge can be found here as well.
