2. Diagnostic Information
Diagnostic/Maintenance ApproachThis printer can be serviced without being connected to a hostcomputer.
This printer will display both operator correctable errors and serviceerrors on the front (operator) panel. In addition, there are testsavailable from the density adjustment panel on the back of themachine that bypass the video controller board. These basic enginefunction tests to enable you to eliminate potential software problems.These tests are covered in Chapter 3, Diagnostic Aids.
Using the diagnostic information in this manual leads you to thecorrect field replaceable unit (FRU), or part. Before replacing anentire FRU, determine if just the defective part is available in theparts section, Chapter 7. Always replace the smallest possible part.Use the error code charts, symptom index, service checks and the
diagnostic aids chapter to determine the symptom and repair thefailure. After you complete the repair, perform the appropriate teststo verify the repair.
DO NOT swap parts as a diagnostic technique. Certain parts workas a system and unnecessary swapping of these parts may lead toprint quality.

DC Controller Board Information
The DC controller board (DCCB) controls the printer. When thePRINT signal is received from the video controller board, the DCCBsends the print sequence command to the mechanical controllerboard (MCB) which starts controlling the various loads.
The DC controller board retains important information in EEPROMconcerning drum life, oil out warnings, registration adjustments, andso on. In addition, this board contains proprietary information andshould be replaced ONLY when directed by the appropriate servicecheck.
The DC controller board also provides:
Laser/Scanner control Image stabilization control (environmental, toner quality,
photoconductor drum life) Fuser temperature control Power-OFF time measurement
Various detection functions Video interface control

Mechanical Controller Board Information
The mechanical controller board (MCB) controls the various loads inresponse to signals received from the DC controller board (DCCB).The MCB then returns the status signals to the DCCB. The MCBcontrols the pick-up PCB, the high voltage power supply PCB, andthe paper feeder driver PCB by way of the serial communication.
The mechanical controller board also provides:
Drive for the various motors and fan motors Control of the toner carousel, fuser transfer drum and peripheral
units Toner stirring, toner low detection and toner cartridge detection Photosensitive drum life detection Waste toner collect system control Power saving mode control
Note: There are two non-replaceable fuses on the MCB. They arelabeled FU2001 and FU2002. If a short occurs on the various
solenoids, or if you ground the wrong side, these fuses could open.

Start
Use the error message table, symptom table, service checks, in this
chapter and the diagnostic aids in Chapter 3 to determine thecorrective action to repair a printer.
If the operator panel is blank, black or appears unusual, unplug thevideo controller board and run the engine print tests using theDensity Adjustment Panel. Go to Chapter 3 Diagnostic Aids to startthe call since the operator panel or video controller board may havea defect.
If an error is displayed, locate it in the following error messagetable and take the appropriate action.
If your machine does not have an error code and does not completePower-On Self Test (POST), go to POST and the POST symptomtable. If your machine makes it through POST without an error butyou have a symptom, go to the symptom table, locate your symptomand take the appropriate action.
If an error message appears while you are working on the printer, goto the error message table and take the indicated action.
Note: Some of the following service checks require voltage and/orcontinuity readings. For continuity readings, turn off and unplug theprinter or optional sheet feeder. For voltage measurements, closethe front door and be sure the door micro switch is in the closed
position.WARNING: It is possible for the printer to enter POST or print testswith all covers removed (except the front cover) and the door switchclosed.

Operator Codes
The following code numbers are operator instructions andmessages. In some cases, no action is required; others areoperator-correctable; and others may require service. An error codemay require up to one minute to appear. Some symptoms may notgenerate an error code. Locate your symptom in the table and takethe indicated action.
Code Symptom
20 - 25 Paper JamWhen experiencing repeated or non resetable paper jam codes,go to Paper Feed Troubleshooting on page 2-38.
26 Incorrect Paper SizeEnsure that the size of the paper being fed matches the size ofthe paper selected in the paper setup menu, and the gates in thecassette. Also check the cassette size sensing PCB and theejection sensing PCB. Refer to the Block Wiring Diagram Sheet.
27 Change Paper
The LCD displays the following paper sizes:(Letter, Legal, B5, A4)
28 Load PaperEnsure there is paper in the tray(s). If paper is present, check theoperation of the cassette paper sensor, PS301.
30 Door OpenThere is only one door open switch. It is located above the LVPS.It is a mechanical and gate. The front door, fuser access door
and paper feed mechanism must all be closed to actuate thisswitch. Remove the rear cover and EMC shield. Trace the motionof the interlocks and repair as necessary.
31 - 34 Cartridge Missing
If all cartridges are incorrectly reported missing, check:
The toner low detect PCB (Beam) The toner low detect PCB (Receiver)

Check for:
Full bottle Improper installation Missing bottle Broken interlock Toner on window of bottle (Use a clean, dry rag to clean the
window. Do not use finger.)
42 Oil Bottle Empty/MissingCheck to ensure the bottle is not empty. If the bottle has oil,remove the fuser and verify the float ball in the oil bottle case isfollowing the level of the oil. Check the operation of the oil sensorPCB in the machine, (it is not in the fuser).
43 Photoconductor Unit Missing
Ensure that the photoconductor unit is completely seated in the
machine. Check the continuity from J1004-5 on the HVPS to thespring that contacts the pad on the rear of the photoconductor.There is a resistor of approximately 9K ohms in this line.
44 Fuser Life Exhausted
Remove the fuser from the printer. Remove the yellow cover fromthe top of the fuser and verify that the cleaning web is exhausted.A notch at the life limit of the web allows an arm to drop, whichblocks a sensor located on the printer, (not the fuser) near the exit
drive mechanism. If the web is exhausted, drain the fuser oil andreplace the fuser. If the arm has prematurely dropped, (or if thecustomer has pushed it down), reset the arm on top of the weband reinstall the fuser.Note: Fuser replacement is the responsibility of the customer.
45 Paper Feed Mechanism Missing
