Addressing Annoying Beeping Sounds on Kyocera M2540 Printers

Printers are essential office tools, but sometimes they come with unexpected quirks, such as annoying beeping sounds after each job. If you've found yourself frustrated by the incessant beeping on your Kyocera M2540, fear not – there's a solution.

Identifying the Issue

A user reached out for assistance, expressing displeasure with the constant beeping of their Kyocera M2540 printer after every completed job. Traditionally, users expect beeping only for critical events like paper jams or other issues requiring attention. However, the continuous beeping after every print job proved bothersome.

Seeking a Solution

The user scoured the official PDF manual from Kyocera's website but found no mention of how to disable this seemingly unnecessary auditory feedback. Thankfully, a fellow user chimed in with a solution they had discovered for turning off the beeping sound.

The Solution Unveiled

To disable the beeping sound on the Kyocera M2540, follow these steps:

  1. Access the printer's console and navigate to "System Menu/Counter."
  2. Within the "Common Settings" submenu, locate the "Sound" option.
  3. Under "Sound," find the "Buzzer" setting.
  4. Within the "Buzzer" setting, look for the specific option labeled "Job Finish."

Validating the Solution

The user who proposed the solution noted that this option was available in the official Kyocera user guide, specifically on page 265 of the English manual. It appears that the information was indeed present in the documentation, though its discovery might have eluded some users.

Additional Insights

Another user shared a similar experience and offered an alternative method. They suggested exploring the printer settings menu on the control panel and looking for options related to system sounds or notification sounds.

If you find yourself annoyed by the beeping sound on your Kyocera M2540 printer, rest assured that it's a configurable setting. By navigating through the printer's menu, specifically in the "System Menu/Counter" and "Common Settings," you can locate the "Buzzer" setting and disable the "Job Finish" beep.
