2. Diagnostic Information

Diagnostic Approach

This printer can be serviced without being connected to a host com­puter.
This printer displays both operator correctable errors and service errors on the front (operator) panel. In addition, there are two tests available from the base machine and the optional 2000 sheet paper deck that allow you to b ypass the controller card. You can use these basic engine function tests to eliminate potential software problems. See “Diagnostic Aids” on page 3-1.
The diagnostic information in this chapter should lead you to the fail­ing part. Before you replace an entire assembly, determine if just the defective part is available in the parts catalog. Some diagnostic pro­cedures indicate the parts catalog location of the part to be replaced by including the assembly number and reference number in paren­thesis. Use the error code tables, symptom table, service checks and the diagnostic aids chapter to determine the symptom and repair the failure. After you complete the repair, perform the appro­priate tests to verify the repair.

Start

Initial Check

Before you start troubleshooting, check the following:
Installation Environment
The power supply line voltage is plus or min us 10% of the rated line voltage.
The printer is securely installed on a level surface in a well-ven­tilated place.
Diagnostic Information 2-1
4040
The room temperature is between 10 and 32.5 ° C, and the rela­tive humidity between 20 and 80%.
Avoid sites generating ammonia gas, high temperature or high humidity (near water faucets, kettles, humidifiers), cold spaces, near open flames, and dusty areas.
Avoid sites exposed to direct sunlight.
Print Paper Checks
Be sure the recommended paper for this printer is being used.
Check the paper for dampness. Make a trial print with paper from a newly opened package, and check the result.
EP Cartridges
If blank spots appear on an output image, there is a chance that the toner is not evenly mix ed. Rock the toner cartridge and then make a print to see if the toner has evenly mixed.
Other
If a packaged EP cartridge is opened soon after being moved from a cold room to a warm room, condensation will appear inside the car­tridge; this can cause various image defects. In such cases, be sure to instruct the customer that it is necessary to leave the cartridge sealed for one to two hours at room temperature to allow it to accli­matize.
