Laser No tice
The printer is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of
DHHS 21 CFR Subchapter J for Class I (1) laser products, and
elsewhere is certified as a Class I laser product conforming to the
requirements of IEC 60825.
Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The
printer contains internally a Class IIIb (3b) laser that is nominally a 5
milliwatt gallium arsenide laser operating in the wavelength region of
770-795 nanometers. The laser system and printer are designed so
there is never any human access to laser radiation above a Class I
level during normal operation, user maintenance, or prescribed
service condition.

2. Diagnostic Information
Start
CAUTION: Remove the power cord from the printer or wall outlet
before you connect or disconnect any cable or electronic board or
assembly for personal safety and to prevent damage to the printer.
Use the handholds on the side of the printer. Make sure your fingers
are not under the printer when you lift or set the printer down.
Use the service error code, user status message, user error
message, symptom table, service checks, and diagnostic aids in this
chapter to determine the corrective action necessary to repair a
malfunctioning printer.
Service error codes are indicated by a three-digit error code. If a
service error code is displayed, go to the “Service Error Codes” on
page 2-2.
User status messages provide the user with information on the
current status of the printer. Ready is displayed on the first line of the
display unless Power Saver is invoked, and then Power Saver is
displayed. If a user status message is displayed, go to the “ U ser
Status Screens” on page 2-24.
User error messages are indicated by a two or three-digit error code
that provides the user with information that explains a problem with a
print cartrid ge, paper jam, option, por t , and so on. If a user error
message is displayed, go to the “User Attendance Messages” on
page 2-29.
If your machine completes the “Power-On Self Test (POST)” on
page 2-41 without an error, and you have a symptom, go to the
“Symptom Tables” on page 2-42. Locate your symptom and take
the appropriate action.
If a service error code appears while you are working on the
machine, go to the “Service Error Codes” on page 2-2 and take
the indicated action for that error.

Message

Explanation
Error code 31 is displayed when the top
front cover is closed and a defective
print cartridge is detected. It ma y take
the printer 10-20 seconds to determine
if the print cartridge is defective .
Depending on the se tting of the Machine
Class ID the printer may be allowed to
print pages during this 10-20 second
interval. If pages are allowed to print,
they are not r epri nted once a good print
cartridge is inserted.
Note: This error indicates the printer
was abl e to read the cartridge ID , but the
ID did not pass the v erification test. To
pass the verification test, the ID r ead
from the print cartridge must ma tch the
ID from the las t “good” print cartridge or
the same ID m ust be read from the print
cartridge twice. The last “good” print
cartridge ID is stored in NVRAM.
Error 32 is displayed when the top co v er
is closed and an unsupported print
cartridge is detected. It may take the
printer 10-20 seconds to determine if
the print cartridge is supported.
Depending on the se tting of the Machine
Class ID the printer may be allowed to
print pages during this 10-20 second
interval. If pages are allowed to print,
then they are not reprinted once a good
print cartridge is inserted. If this does

Note: Anytime the system board is replaced, the Configuration ID
must be reset in NVRAM on the new system board. Go to “Setting
Configura tion ID” on page 3-31.
Review the following information before performing any service
checks.
• Paper feed problems (especially paper jams): Go to “Viewing
the Error Log” on page 3-13 and check the printer error log for
indications of repetitive entries that help to isolate a problem to
a particular area of the printer or option.
• Paper feed problems with error message: Use the “Sub Error
Codes for 9XX and 2XX Error Codes” on page 2-8 to help
diagnose the problem.
• Print quality problems: Go to “Print Quality Test Pages” on
page 3-34 and print a test page to help diagnose problems
before changing any settings or working on the printer.
• Use the resident diagnostics test provided to help isolate a
problem before taking the machine apart or removing any
options.

Charge Roll Service Check
Service Tip: Close and evenly spaced repetitive marks 47.19 mm
(1.86 inch) apart or spots on the page can be caused by a damaged
or contaminated charge roll.
Service Tip: Check to make sure the right charge roll arm bushing is
correctly installed and operates correctly.
To remove the charge roll:
1. Wrap a piece of plain white paper around the charge roll to
prevent contamination or damage.
2. Carefully remove the roll by pressing outward and to the right on
the charge roll link arm and remove the charge roll from the
right side charge roll bearing.
3. Remove the charge roll from the left side charge roll bearing
and remove the roll from the printer. Leave the paper wrapped

Service Tip: When removing the LVPS from the printer observe the
following:
1. The LVPS uses a self docking connector that mates with
another connector mounted on the left side frame assembly.
Some force may be required to pull the LVPS loose from the
connector.
2. Gently remo ve the LVPS supply using caution not to damage
the printed circuit board. Pull the LVPS out far enough to reach

3. The fuser lamp cable uses a locking type of connector system.
Unlock the fuser lamp cable connector, disconnect the cable
