• Final Action
Initial Actions / System Checks
This diagram identifies how to collect the data
necessary to decide how to proceed with the
service call. It classifies the problem and refers
you to the appropriate Repair Analysis Procedure.
System Checkout
The System Checkout procedure is used to verify
that the printer is operating properly after a repair
has been made.
Final Action
The Final Action procedure identifies the steps
that must be performed before finishing the
repair.
Section 2 - REPAIR ANALYSIS PROCEDURES
(RAPs)
This section contains the Repair Analysis
Procedures (RAPs) necessary to repair faults.
When using a RAP, always exit the procedure
when the fault is fixed. Do not perform the
remaining steps.
This section contains the Repair Analysis
Procedures (RAPs) necessary to repair print
quality faults. The first RAP, IQ 1 Image Defect
Entry RAP, is used to classify a print quality
problem and will reference the RAP to be used to
repair the problem. When using a RAP, exit the
procedure when the fault is fixed. Do not perform
the remaining steps.
Section 4 - REPAIR / ADJUSTMENT
PROCEDURES
This section contains the repair and adjustment
procedures for the XJ6C Printer.
Section 5 - PARTS LIST
This section contains the detailed Parts List for
the XJ6C Printer.
Section 6 - GENERAL PROCEDURES
This section contains Diagnostic Procedures and
Product Specifications for the XJ6C Printer. An

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
The Service Call Procedures will direct you to the
proper section of the Service Manual.
You should begin the service call with the Initial
Actions / System Checks Procedure. From there,
you will be referenced to either Section 2, Status
Indicator RAPs or Section 3, Image Quality RAPs.
If you are sent to Section 3, you will perform the
IQ 1 Image Defect Entry RAP to classify the print
quality problem. You will then be directed to the
proper RAP to begin your troubleshooting. From
these RAPs you may be referenced to other
sections of the manual to make checks,
adjustments or to replace parts.
When you have made a repair, return to the
System Checkout / Final Action to complete the
call.
