 Chapter 1 Troubleshooting

This manual is based on the standard specifications of GENICOM on the

assumption that the printer controller is working properly.
When the printer controller controls operation directly or any OEM has its unique
specifications, the operation may be different from description in this manual.

Troubleshooting in this manual assumes use of Diag. tools (maintenance tools).

However, the troubleshooting allows for the case where the Diag tools are not
used. You can correct troubles according to these troubleshooting procedures
after understanding them well.

1. Progressing with the Troubleshooting

After making sure of actual condition of a trouble, proceed with the troubleshooting process efficiently
making use of the Fault Isolation Procedure (FIP), Operation of Diag. tools (Chapter 2), Wire
connecting diagram (Chapter 7), and Principle of operation (Chapter 6).

1.1 Flow of Troubleshooting

Flow of the troubleshooting is as follows:

1.2 Preparatory Requirements

Be sure to check the following items before starting the troubleshooting procedures:

1) Voltage of the power supply is within the specifications (measure the voltage at the electric outlet).

2) Power cord is free from breakage, short-circuit, disconnected wire, or incorrect connection in the
power cord.

3) The laser printer is properly grounded.

4) The laser printer is not installed at a place subjected to too high temperature, too high humidity, too
low temperature, too low humidity or rapid change of temperature.

5) The laser printer is not installed close to water service, humidifier, heat generating unit, or fire, in
very dusty place, or a place exposed to air flow from the air conditioning system.

6) The laser printer is not installed in a place where volatile gas or inflammable gas is generated.

7) The laser printer is not installed under direct sunbeams.

8) The laser printer is installed in a well-ventilated place.

9) The laser printer is installed on a stout and stable plane.

10) Paper used meets specifications (standard paper is recommendable).

11) The laser printer is handled properly.

12) Parts which should be periodically replaced are replaced each time when specified number of
sheets have been printed.

 Chapter 1 Troubleshooting

1.3 Cautions for Service Operations

1) Be sure to remove the power cord except when it is specifically required.
If the printer is kept ON, never touch the conductive parts while it is not specifically
required.
The power switch/inlet of LVPS is live even while the power supply is cut off. Never
touch the live parts.

2) When checking some parts with covers removed and with the interlock and safety and power
switches ON, remove the connector (P/J151) on the ROS ASSY except when it is specifically
required.
When checking some parts with covers removed and with the interlock and safety
and power switches ON, laser beams may be irradiated from the ROS ASSY. Since
it is dangerous, be sure to remove the connector (P/J151) while it is not required.

3) When checking some parts with the left cover removed and power ON, be sure to remove the
connector (P/J5011) on the HVPS while it is not required.
When checking some parts with the left cover removed and power ON, high voltage
may be applied by the HVPS. Be sure to remove the connector (P/J5011) on the
HVPS.
When connecting the connector (P/J5011) on the HVPS according to the
instructions of the FIP, never touch the HVPS and parts of high voltage.

4) When using Diag. tools or other tools of high voltage, be sure to keep them covered except when
otherwise specified.
When using Diag.Tool or other tools of high voltage, never touch parts of high
voltage.
When using Diag.Tool or other tools of high voltage, be sure to follow the
procedure of this manual.

5) When operating the driving units using the Diag or other tools, be sure to keep them covered
unless otherwise specified.
When operating the driving units using the Diag or other tools, never touch the
driving units. When operating the driving units using Diag or other tools, be sure
to observe the procedures in this manual.

6) When touching hot parts, be careful not to get burnt.

7) Workers should wear a wrist band or the like to remove static electricity from their body , grounding
their body while working.

1.4 Cautions for FIP Use

1) It is assumed in the FIP that the printer controller (CONTROLLER PWB) is normally functioning. If
any trouble cannot be corrected by troubleshooting, replace the printer controller with a normal one
and check for proper operation again.
If the trouble is not still corrected, replace the major parts and then related parts in succession and
confirm according to the procedure of the "Initial check" and "Major check parts".

2) When troubleshooting according to the FIP, normal HNB NCU PWB, PHD ASSY or other parts
may be necessary for isolation of failed parts. Prepare them in advance.

3) In the initial check according to the FIP, check only items which can be simply checked.

4) In the initial check according to the FIP, check the constitutive parts of the major check parts and
related parts, as well as major check parts.

5) When working with the printer, Be sure to remove the power cord except when required specifi-
cally. Never touch live parts if not required, while the power cord is connected.

6) Connector condition is denoted as follows:

[P/J12] → Connector (P/J12) is connected.
[P12] → Plug side with the connector (P/J12) removed (except when attached directly to the
board).
[J12] → Jack side with the connector (P/J12) removed (except when attached directly to the
board).

7) [P/J1-2PIN <=> P/J3-4PIN] in the FIP means measurement with the plus side of the measuring
instrument connected to [P/J1] and the minus side to [4PIN] of [P/J3].

8) [P/J<=>P/12] in the FIP means measurement for all terminals corresponding between [P/J1] and
[P/J2] referring to "Wire connecting diagram".

9) In [P/J1-2PIN <=> P/J3-4PIN] in the FIP where voltage is measured, [P/J3-4PIN] on the rear minus
side is always at the AG (analog ground), SG (signal ground), or RTN (return).
Therefore, after checking of proper continuity between AGs, SGs, or RTNs respectively, the rear
minus side can be connected to the PIN of AG, SG or RTN instead of [P/J3-4PIN].
However, care should be taken not to mistake since [AG], [SG], and [RTN] are not on the same
level.

10) Measure the voltage of small connectors with the special tool. Handle the tool with care, as the
leading edge of the tool is pointed.

11) When measuring the voltage, set the PDH ASSY, FUSER ASSY, BRT ASSY and paper tray, close
the FRONT COVER ASSY and power ON if not required specifically.

12) Numerical values in the FIP are only for standard. If numerical values are approximate, they
should be considered permissible.

1-4
 Chapter 1 Troubleshooting
13) Parts which are always removed to check as indicated in the FIP and procedures for that purpose
are not specifically referred to here. They should be handled carefully.

14) "Replacement" in the FIP indicates replacement of parts which are considered to be the source of
trouble to be checked after replacing those parts, assemblies containing them, or parts (HIGH
ASSY).

15) The FIP describes the first tray of optional FEEDER UNIT as "Tray 2", and the second tray as
"Tray 3".

16) In the FIP, existence and non-existence of Diag tools (maintenance tools,) are distinguished in
some cases. Correct troubles according to the instructions in the FIP.

17) In the FIP, procedures are differentiated depending on specifications. Correct troubles according
to the instructions in the FIP.

18) For optional parts, some troubleshooting procedure may follow the manual for those options, of
which you should take note.
Keep those manuals for the optional parts when required.

4. Preventive Maintenance

When you visit a customer, perform preventive maintenance services irrespective of the major object of
your visit to prevent possible troubles beforehand.

◆ Preventive maintenance procedure

1) Ask the customer how the laser printer is used.
2) Record the accumulated number of sheets printed.
Replace the parts to be replaced periodically based on the No. of prints. If
required, replace such parts at this time.

3) Print on several sheets of paper to check for no trouble.

4) Remove foreign substances on the BRT ASSY, PHD ASSY, FUSER ASSY and paper delivery
rolls and clean stain with a brush or dry cloth or the like.
If stain is serious, clean with wet cloth and then dry cloth. Be careful not to
damage the parts at this time.

5) Cleaning of fan exhaust port

Remove the FRONT HEAD COVER and clean the FUSER FAN to remove dust deposited on it
with a brush. Remove the REAR COVER and clean the dust deposit on the fan.
If the exhaust port or fan is clogged, temperature in this laser printer increases
causing trouble.

6) Print on several sheets again to check for no trouble.

Parts are controlled as spare parts. When servicing for parts for which no
procedures are described, observe their assembling condition before starting the
service.

For optional parts, refer to the manual for them.

Though the optional parts are assumed to be removed, they may not be removed if
not required for the purpose of service operation.

1.1 Before starting service work

◆ Turn the power OFF and remove the power cord from the electric outlet.
◆ When performing service operation for parts around the FUSER ASSY, start the service after the
FUSER ASSY and parts around it have cooled down.
◆ Do not give forcible power to prevent damage of parts or functions.
◆ Since a wide variety of screws are used, be careful not to mistake their positions, to prevent crush-
ing of the screw holes or other troubles.
◆ Wear a wrist band or the like as far as possible to remove static electricity of the human body.

3. Functions of Major Functional Parts

Major functional parts composing this laser printer are described below referring to the illustrations.
Those parts are classified into blocks as follows depending on the configuration.
✩ Option Feeder 1
✩ Option Feeder 2

3.1 Option Feeder 1

3.1.1 Major functions
▼ SWITCH ASSY size (tray 2)
▼ SWITCH ASSY size (tray 3)
Detects paper size and existence/non existence of paper tray.

▼ SENSOR PHOTO (tray 2) (No Paper Sensor)

▼ SENSOR PHOTO (tray 3) (No Paper Sensor)
Detects existence-non existence of paper in the paper tray based on the changes of actuator posi-
tion.
(No paper: Sensor beam is intercepted)
▼ SOLENOID FEED (tray 2)
▼ SOLENOID FEED (tray 3)
By controlling the rotations of the GEAR FEED, operation (rotation/stop) of the ROLL ASSY FEED is
controlled.
▼ CLUTCH ASSY turn (tray 2)
▼ CLUTCH ASSY turn (tray 3)
Drive is transmitted from the DRIVE ASSY FEEDER to the ROLL ASSY TURN.
▼ ROLL ASSY FEED (tray 2)
▼ ROLL ASSY FEED (tray 3)
When the SOLENOID FEED operates, the GEAR FEED and GEAR IDLER FEED are engaged by
the force of the SPRING FEED, the ROLL ASSY FEED starts rotating under the drive from the
DRIVE ASSY FEEDER, and the ROLL ASSY feeds paper from the paper tray.
After rotating one turn, the GEAR FEED and GEAR IDLER FEED are disengaged at the notch of the
GEAR FEED cutting off the transmission of drive and stopping the rotation of the ROLL ASSY
FEED. Thus the sheets of paper are fed one by one.
▼ ROLL ASSY TURN (tray 2)
▼ ROLL ASSY TURN (tray 3)
The ROLL ASSY TURN is rotated by the CLUTCH ASSY TURN under the drive from the DRIVE
ASSY FEEDER and feeds the paper from the paper tray toward to tray 1.

3.2 Option Feeder 2

3.2.1 Major functions
▼ SENSOR PHOTO (tray 2) (Low Paper Sensor)
▼ SENSOR PHOTO (tray 3) (Low Paper Sensor)
The actuator lowers according to how much paper remains in the paper tray. When the actuator low-
ers to certain extent, it intercepts the sensor beam to detect low paper quantity.
As the actuator position can be seen from the front side of paper tray, you can confirm approximate
residual paper quantity.

▼ PWBA OPTFDR
Controls paper pick-up operation of each tray to the FEEDER DRIVE ASSY based on the communi-
cation with the HNB MCU WITH CPU or information from the sensors and switches.
Its major functions are as follows.
ï Communication with HNB MCU WITH CPU
ï Reception of information from sensors and switches
ï Control of DRIVE ASSY FEEDER, solenoids, ad clutches
ï Control of paper pick-up operation
ï Distribution of low voltage DC power supplied from the main unit to each component

▼ DRIVE ASSY FEEDER

Supplies drive to the FEEDER DRIVE ASSY of each tray.
