Sometimes, this code can be caused by a power fluctuation or outage. try this: turn machine on, press and hold these keys in this exact order. "stop/reset", "start" and then "left copy exposure" key. let up and quickly hit "stop/reset" again. at this time you should be in the maintenance mode and see "U000" on display. next, using the "zoom" keys, go to "U163". then press "start" and you should see "CLE". press "start" again. then press "stop/reset" twice and you should see "U000" again. press right "zoom" key to go to U001 and press "start" to get out of maint. mode. turn copier off, wait 3 secs. and turn back on. if message comes back, you truly have a bad fuser, but my experience is you'll be back up and running.
