1. Warning for servicing
1) Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that
meets the specified voltage and current requirements.
Avoid complex wiring, which may lead to a fire or an electric shock.
2) If there is any abnormality such as smoke or an abnormal smell,
interrupt the job and disconnect the power plug.
It may cause a fire or an electric shock.
3) Be sure the machine is properly grounded. Failure to ground the
machine properly may result in an electric shock or fire.
To protect the machine and the power unit from lightening, grounding must be made.
4) When connecting the ground wire, never connect it to the following
points as it may cause an explosion, fire, or an electric shock:
• Gas tube
• Lightning conductor
• A water pipe or a water faucet, which is not recognized as a
grounding object by the authorities.
• Grounding wire for telephone line
5) Do not damage, break, or stress the power cord. Do not put heavy
objects on the power cord. Do not bend or pull the cord forcefully. It
may cause a fire or electric shock.
6) Keep the power cable away from a heat source.
Do not insert the power plug with dust on it into a power outlet.
It may cause a fire or an electric shock.
7) Do not put a receptacle with water in it or a metal piece which may
drop inside the machine.
It may cause a fire or an electric shock.
8) Do not touch the power plug, insert a telephone jack, perform service or operate the machine with wet or oil hands. It may cause an
electric shock.
2. Precautions for servicing
1) When servicing, disconnect the power plug, the printer cable, the
network cable, and the telephone line from the machine, except
when performing the communication test, etc.
It may cause an injury or an electric shock.
2) There is a high temperature area inside the machine. Use extreme
care when servicing.
3) There is a high voltage section inside the machine which may
cause an electric shock . Be careful when servicing.
4) Do not disassemble the laser unit. Do not insert a reflective material such as a screwdriver in the laser beam path.
It may damage eyes by reflection of laser beams.
5) When servicing the machine while operating, be careful not to
make contact with chains, belts, gear, and any other moving parts.
6) Do not leave the machine with the cabinet disassembled.
Do not allow any person other than a serviceman to touch inside
the machine. It may cause an electric shock, a burn, or an injury.
7) When servicing, do not breathe toner, developer, and ink excessively. Do not get them in the eyes.
If toner, developer, or ink enters you eyes, wash it away with water
immediately, and consult a doctor if necessary.
8) The machine has got sharp edges inside. Be careful not to damage fingers when servicing.
9) Do not throw toner or a toner cartridge in a fire. Otherwise, toner
may pop and burn you.
10) When replacing the lithium battery on the PWB, use only the specified battery. If a battery of different specification is used, it may not
be compatible and cause breakdown or malfunction of the
machine.
11) When carrying an electric unit or a PWB, use an anti-static (electricity) bag. Failure to do so may cause component failure or
machine malfunction.
3. Note for repairing/replacing the LSU
When repairing or replacing, be sure to observe the following items.
1) When repairing or replacing the LSU, be sure to disconnect the
power plug from the power outlet.

When either of the above reached the specified level, it is judged as life end.
In an actual case, when correction or warm-up operation is performed as well as output operation, the developer and the drum rotates.
Therefore, the developer/drum consuming level cannot be determined only by the copy/print quantity. When, therefore, the rpm reaches the specified

6) Execute the main scanning direction (FR) distortion balance
adjustment previously described in 2) again.
(8) Main scanning direction (FR direction) distortion
balance adjustment (Rail height adjustment)
When there is no skew copy in the mirror base scanning direction and
there is no horizontal error (right angle to the scanning direction), the
adjustment can be made by adjusting the No. 2/3 mirror base unit rail
height.
Before performing this adjustment, be sure to perform the horizontal
image distortion adjustment in the laser scanner section.
This adjustment must be performed in the following cases:
• When the mirror base wire is replaced.
• When the copy lamp unit and no. 2/3 mirror unit are replaced.
• When the mirror unit rail is replaced and moved.
• When a following copy is made.
1) Make an original for the adjustment.
Make test sheet by drawing parallel lines at 10mm from the both
ends of A3 (11" x 17") white paper as shown below. (These lines
must be correctly parallel to each other.)
If the width (La) of the black background at the lead edge is equal
that (Lb) at the rear edge, there is no need to execute the following
procedures of 4) – 7).
4) Loosen the mirror base drive pulley fixing screw on the front frame
side or on the rear frame side.
• When La < Lb
Turn the mirror base drive pulley on the front frame side in the

• When La > Lb
Shift the mirror base B rail upward by the half of the difference of
La–Lb.
• When La < Lb
Shift the mirror base B rail downward by the half of the difference
of Lb–La.
Example: When La = 12mm and Lb = 9mm, shift the mirror base
B rail upward by 1.5mm.
• When Lc >Ld
Shift the mirror base B rail downward by the half of the difference
of Lc–Ld.
• When Lc < Ld
When Lc < Ld, move the mirror base B on the paper feed side
upward.
∗ When moving the mirror base rail, hold the mirror base rail with
your hand.
<Adjustment specification>
La = Lb, Lc = Ld
5) After completion of adjustment, manually turn the mirror base drive
pulley, scan the mirror base A and mirror base B fully, and check
that the mirror bases are not in contact with each other.

When changing +V2, check with +V1 unchanged. If there is any trouble
in the half tone image of graphics, keep the relationship between +V1
and +V2 at the default and change it.
When the image quality is deteriorated because the user selects the
OHP mode and use other than the recommended OHP, decrease the
transfer current to adjust deterioration of black background picture quality. If some of characters are not printed, increase the transfer current.
This setting is changed in linkage with SIM 26-6 destination setting.

(Note for servicing the OPC drums)
1. Prevention of oily dirt attachment
Note:
• Be careful not to attach fingerprints or oily dirt on the OPC drum surface. (Keep the unit away from oils and dust.)
• When replacing the OPC drum, cover the OPC drum with the protection sheet and hold the protection sheet.
If it is required to hold the OPC drum directly, use enough care not to
touch the cleaning blade area, 5mm inside from both edges of the
OPC drum. (If a fingerprint or oily dirt is attached to the cleaning
blade area of the OPC drum, the cleaning blade may flip.)

If a fingerprint is attached to the OPC drum surface erroneously,
perform the following countermeasures.
1) Use dry cloth to clean and remove the dirt.
2) Apply KYNAR to prevent blade flip.
[Check method]
Check to confirm that the OPC drum is free from fingerprints or oily dirt
and that the cleaning blade is completely cleaned by the following
method.
• Make a print of a half tone image on all the surface of A4 (11" x 8.5")
paper, and check the printed paper for any abnormality in the image.
2. Prior exposure prevention
Note:
• Avoid servicing in a place where there is strong light.
• Do not expose the unit to light for a long time.
• Cover the OPC drum with light-blocking material. (When using
paper, use about 10 sheets of paper to block light.)
[Countermeasures]
If the OPC drum is erroneously exposed to light too much (prior exposure), perform the following countermeasures.
1) Print half tone images on the whole surface of A4 (11" x 8.5")
paper, and check to confirm that there is no irregular density area
in the previously exposed section.
2) Damages due to prior exposure may be recovered by keeping the
OPC drum for several hours. If, however, image are not recovered,
replace the OPC drum.
