Troubleshooting tips

1.First record whether the problem is with the Printer, the Scanner, or the Touch Screen.

2.Make sure that the scanning area is completely clean.

3.Test 20: Noise Test can help you find where the scanning area is dirty.

4.The SCAN dump files can help you to understand the light profile of the affected scanner.

5.Remember, in order to cancel when copying, press the Cancel button on the Touch Screen and the Cancel button on the printer.

Is the problem with the Printer or the Scanner?

If you experience the following symptoms, the problem could be related to the scanner:

System Error on the Touch Screen.

LED’s flashing on the Scanner Operator Panel.

WIDEsystem error message.

Vertical lines (either color or black) in the scanned image.

If you experience the following symptoms, then perform an Image Preview and send a Test Print:

Image Quality Problems.

No Output

Output is not as expected.

If the Image preview fails, this points to a problem with the Scanner. If the Test Print fails, this points to a problem with the Printer.

Image-quality problems

If you have Image Quality problems in any prints, try the following:

1.Print out a file already stored or print out a demo file.

2.Once the print is finished, insert it into the Scanner.

3.Once scanned, print out the scanned image.

If the scanned image already shows the problem, then the problem is associated to the scanner.

If the scanned image looks fine, but the print looks incorrect, then the problem is most likely associated to the printer

Output problems

If the output is not as you expected it to be, try the following:

Check all the settings in the Software: Color Settings and Margins.

Check media settings: Media profile (in software) and media loaded in the printer (front panel selection) should be the same.

2 Chapter 1 Troubleshooting

ENWW

Perform Color Calibration (both Scanner and printer).

Check the Preview Image.

If there is no output at all, then try the following:

Check that both the scanner and the printer are correctly connected to the network.

Check the selected settings: List, Collate, Scan to file...

Troubleshooting System Error Codes

Chapter 2, System Error Codes on page 28, contains a list of system error codes and their respective descriptions and recommended corrective actions. Only try one recommended action at a time and check if the error code has disappeared.

Using the Service Tools from the Touchscreen

Here we briefly describe the various tests found in the software Service Tools menu (called SCANtest 6 in previous systems).

The purpose of the Service Tools is to support the troubleshooting and adjustment of the Scanner.

To access the software you must go to the Setup tab and to: Options, System, Service (this part is password protected, the password is ’support'.

When Service Tools has been started, the Scanner is switched ON in Test Mode, and the Diagnostic LED on the Operator Panel is turned ON.

NOTE: The word camera is used in some service tests, and in this document to refer to the CIS elements.

Service Tools Menu

Test 1: Set Serial Number

Test 6: Motor Test

Test 9: Oscilloscope view cameras

Test 11: Manual Camera Alignment (Vertical alignment and stitching)

Test 12: Manual Scaling Adjustment

Test 20: Streak Test

Test 42: Backup Calibration and statistics

Test 43: Restore Calibration and statistics

Test 45: Operator Panel Key Test

Test 46: Paper Sensor Test

Test 47: Operator Panel LED Test

If Service Tools is started when the scanner is in Error Mode, the Error Code Number and a short description of the error will be displayed on the screen.

Test 1: Set Serial Number

This test displays general information regarding the scanner. When executed, the test displays the following:

ENWW

Troubleshooting System Error Codes 3

Scanner Model:

Firmware Release:

Firmware Build:

Scanner ID:

Mac Address:

Serial Number:

Test 6: Motor Test

This test checks the functionality of the Stepper Motor and any associated electronics.

When the test is executed, a menu appears that allows you to select the motor speed and the motor direction.

If the Stepper Motor fails to run when the test is executed, then the Stepper Motor should be replaced.

Test 9: Oscilloscope View

This test contains a Software Oscilloscope that allows you to check the light profile of the CIS elements:

Uncorrected light profile shows the raw data from the CIS module.

Corrected light profile shows the calibrated data.

Test 11: Manual Camera Alignment

Allows you to adjust either Vertical Alignment or Stitching between 2 CIS modules:

1.Load the calibration sheet.

2.Select Alignment or Stitching.

3.Select the two CIS modules to adjust (AB, BC, etc...).

4.Use the arrows to either increase or decrease the value until the preview of the transition area between both CIS modules look correctly aligned or stitched.

4 Chapter 1 Troubleshooting

ENWW

Test 12: Manual Scaling Adjustment

This test allows you to adjust the Y-Axis Scaling.

The scaling (dpi) in the mechanical scan direction (Y-Axis) depends on the speed of the stepper motor relative to the scanline Exposure Time. The default motor speed can be changed ± 1%, either from Test 12 or by using the ‘Scanner Setup/Correction factor ’ option of SW copying. The correction factor is stored in the Flash Memory on the Scanner Controller Board.

Test 20: Streak test

The purpose of this test is to detect and locate the possible cause (dust, dirt, scratches,..) of vertical lines running from top to bottom of the scanned image.

This test is very useful if there are image quality issues such as streaks throughout the scan (Scan direction).

It can be determined if the streaks are dust that are:

1.Present in the scanner (Dark streak that goes below the average line).

2.Present during Scanner Maintenance (white streak that goes above the average line). Insert SM calibration sheet when asked.

Test 42: Backup Calibration and statistics

Use this option to backup the calibrations and the scanner accounting values onto a USB drive.

Test 43: Restore Calibration and Statistics

Use this option to restore the calibrations and accounting values previously backed up onto a USB drive.

Test 45: Operator Panel Key Test

ENWW

Using the Service Tools from the Touchscreen

5

This test checks the functionality of the Keys on the Operator Panel. When pressing each of the keys, the test will show that the key has been activated, and will show if the result is correct or not.

If the Key test fails, replace the Operators Panel which is included in the Right Side Cover.

Test 46: Paper Sensor Test

This test checks the functionality of the Media Sensors.

To test the Media Sensors, use a sheet of media to activate the different sensors one by one. When activated, the test will show that the sensor has been activated and will show if the result is correct or not.

For testing the CIS Bridge Sensors; open and close the scanner cover.

If the test fails, then the problem will be related to corresponding Sensor.

Test 47: Operator panel LED test

This test checks the functionality of the LED Indicators on the Operator Panel. When the test is executed, all the LEDs are sequentially switched ON/OFF until Test 2 is terminated. If any of the LEDs fail, you will NOT get an error message, instead the LED will NOT switch ON or OFF. Additionally you are requested to press the Power button and see if the Power LED is switched ON. If the LED test fails, replace the Replace the Operators panel which is included in the Right Side cover.

Troubleshooting Issues

The following guide will help you to find a solution to some typical problems that some customers may experience. The problems (P#) that can be solved remotely through on-phone support and customer intervention are marked C. The problems that require on-site intervention performed by a Support Technician are marked T.

NOTE: Before sending a Support Technician to the customer, identify whether the problem is related to the scanner or the Panel PC (PPC).

If the problem is scanner-related, erase the parameter block and run the scanner maintenance. Then perform the system recover using the most recent version of the software.

If the problem is PPC-related, perform the system recovery using the most recent version of the software.

If the problem persists, try the solutions listed in the tables below.
