Introduction

The following rules apply throughout this Service Manual:


1. Each chapter contains sections explaining the purpose of specific functions and the relationship between electrical
and mechanical systems with reference to the timing of operation.
In the diagrams,
the arrow

represents the path of mechanical drive; where a signal name accompanies the symbol ,
indicates the direction of the electric signal.

The expression "turn on the power" means flipping on the power switch, closing the front door, and closing the
delivery unit door, which results in supplying the machine with power.
2. In the digital circuits, '1'is used to indicate that the voltage level of a given signal is "High", while '0' is used to
indicate "Low".(The voltage value, however, differs from circuit to circuit.) In addition, the asterisk (*) as in
"DRMD*" indicates that the DRMD signal goes on when '0'.
In practically all cases, the internal mechanisms of a microprocessor cannot be checked in the field. Therefore, the
operations of the microprocessors used in the machines are not discussed: they are explained in terms of from
sensors to the input of the DC controller PCB and from the output of the DC controller PCB to the loads.
The descriptions in this Service Manual are subject to change without notice for product improvement or other
purposes, and major changes will be communicated in the form of Service Information bulletins.
All service persons are expected to have a good understanding of the contents of this Service Manual and all relevant
Service Information bulletins and be able to identify and isolate faults in the machine."

1.2.5 Safety
1.2.5.1 Safety of the Laser System

0000-4274

Laser Light in General


Laser light can prove to be very harmful to the human body, requiring full care.
About the Machine Laser System
The machinelaser optical system is sealed inside a protective housing and external covers, and the machine is

1-20

Chapter 1

constructed to prevent leakage of laser light outside it. As such, the light cannot escape the machine as long as the
machine is used for the operations for which it is designed.

1.2.5.2 Regulations by the Center for Devices and Radiational Heath(CDRH)

0000-4275

The Center for Devices and Radiation Heath (CDRH) of the United States put into effect regulations drawn up for
laser products. These regulations apply to laser products that are produced on August 1, 1976, and thereafter, and ban
the sale of laser products without certification indicated by a label obtained from the organization..

1.2.5.3 Handling the Laser Assembly

0000-4276

Points to Note When Servicing the Area Around the Laser Optical System
- Do not put an object with a high reflectance (e.g., screwdriver) into the path of the laser light.
- Do not wear a watch or ring during work. (They can reflect the laser light, causing damage to your eyes.)
The machinelaser light is red in color, and the covers that can reflect the light are identified with a label [1]. Pay
special attention whenever servicing an area behind these covers.

1.2.5.4 Safety of Toner

0000-4277

About the MachineToner


The machine toner is non-toxic, consisting of plastic and iron materials with a few amount of dye.

Do not throw toner into fire. It can explode.

1-21

Chapter 1

Toner Stains
1. If your skin or clothing has come into contact with toner, remove it with dry tissue, and then wash with water.
2. Do not use warm water; otherwise, the toner will become jell-like, permanently fusing with the fibers of the cloth
and resisting removal.
3. Do not bring toner into contact with vinyl material, as they can easily react.

2.1 Making Pre-Checks


2.1.1 Selecting the Site

0000-4363

Select the site of installation while keeping the following in mind; if possible, visit the user's premises before the
delivery of the machine:
1. The place must provide a source of power that is as rated (10%) and that may be used exclusively by the machine;
it also must provide a terminal for grounding.
2. The place must fall within the following ranges of temperature and humidity. The site must not be near a water
faucet, water boiler, humidifier, or refrigerator.
Humidity (%RH)

Temperature

F-2-1
3. The site must not be near a source of fire or subject to dust or ammonium gas. If exposed to direct rays of the sun,
provide curtains.
4. The amount of ozone generated by the machine in operation is not of a level that would harm the health of
individuals around it. Some, however, may find its order unpleasant, requiring good ventilation for the work

2.1.5 Points to Note Before Starting the Work

0000-4364

Keep the following in mind when installing the machine:

1. If the machine is brought from a cold to warm place, condensation can occur in its optical system, laser unit, or
pickup/feeder unit, leading to image faults. If such is the case, leave the machine alone without unpacking for 1 hr
or more before starting the work.
The term condensation refers to the phenomenon that occurs on a metal surface when it is brought from a cold to
warm location as the result of rapidly cooled vapor. It is seen as droplets of water on the metal surface.
2. The machine weighs about 120 kg (including the reader unit). Be sure to work in a group of 4.

2.3 Checking the Connection to the Network


2.3.1 Checking the Connection to the Network

0000-8240

Perform the following work only if the machine is equipped with printer functions:
If the user's network is in a TCP/IP environment, use the PING function to make sure that the Ethernet PCB has been
installed properly and all network settings have been made properly.
If the user's network is in an IPX/SPX or AppleTalk environment, this check is not needed.

2.3.2 Using PING

0000-4373

Go through the following steps only if the machine is connected to a network:


If the user's network environment is based on TCP/IP, use the PING function to see that the Ethernet PCB has been
correctly mounted and the network settings have been correctly made. If the user's network environment is based on
IPX/SPX or AppleTalk, on the other hand, you need not make a PING-based check.
1) Make the following selections in service mode: COPIER>TEST>NETWORK>PING.
2) Enter the IP address using the keypad on the control panel, and press the OK key.
3) Press the Start key.
- If the PING check is successful, the machine will indicate 'OK'; otherwise, it will indicate 'NG'.

2.3.3 Making Checks Using a Remote Host Address

0000-4374

You can execute PING using a remote host address, thereby checking the connection to the network.
The term "remote address" refers to the IP address of a PC terminal connected to and operating in a TCP/IP network
environment to which the machine belongs.
1) Inform the system administrator that you will be checking the connection to the network using PING.
2) Check with the system administrator to find out the remote host address.
3) Enter the remote host address you obtained in PING.
4) If the indication is 'OK", the machine is correctly connected to the network.
5) If the indication is 'NG", the machine is not correctly connected to the network. Go through the following
troubleshooting steps:

2-23

Chapter 2

2.4 Troubleshooting the Network


2.4.1 Troubleshooting the Network

0000-4375

Go through the following steps only if the machine is connected to the network:
If the connection to the network is not correct, you may suspect the following:
a. poor connection between the network and the Ethernet PCB
b. wrong TCP/IP setting on the machine
c. faulty Ethernet PCB or poorly mounted PCB
d. faulty user network

2.4.2 Checking the Connection of the Network Cable

0000-4376

1) Check to see if the network cable is correctly connected to the Ethernet PCB.
- If the connector is normal, make a check using the PING function and a loopback address or a local host address.
- if not correct, try a check once again using a remote host address.

2.4.3 Making Checks Using a Loopback Address

0000-8237

A loopback address returns before it reaches the network PCB; therefore, executing PING using a loopback address
will enable you to find out whether the TCP/IP settings of the machine are correct.
1) Enter the loopback address (127.0.0.1) to PING.
- if the machine indicates 'NG', check the TCP/IP settings of the machine once again, and then execute PING once
again.
- if the machine indicates 'OK', check the local host address.

2.4.4 Making a Check Using a Local Host Address

0000-8238

The local host address is the IP address of the machine; therefore, executing PING using the local host address, which
returns after it has reached the network PCB, enables you to find out if the network PCB is good or not.
1) Enter the IP address of the machine to PING.
- if the machine indicates 'NG', make the following checks/corrections, and execute PING once again.
a. faulty IP address of the machine: check with the system administrator to find out if the IP address (and its settings)
assigned to the machine is correct.
b. poor connection of the network PC: check the connectors associated with the network PCB.
c. faulty network PCB: replace the network PCB.
- if the machine indicates 'OK', suspect a fault in the user's network environment. Report to the system administrator,
ask for corrective action.

2.5 Checking the Images/Operations


2.5.1 Checking the Images/Operations

0000-4379

Be sure to put back the service book cover; turning on the machine's main power without doing so will cause a fault
associated with error code E020. (The protrusion [A] of the service book cover will push the segment identified as
[B] in the figure when the front cover is closed, thus opening/closing the shutter assembly of the pattern reader unit.)

F-2-79
Place a test sheet on the copyboard glass, and select the cassette 1/2 as the source of paper; then, make copies, and
check the images.
(If a 2-cassette pedestal is used, try cassette 3/4 to check images.)
- Check to be sure there is no abnormal noise.
- Check to be sure that the images are free of faults at all default reproduction ratios.
- Check to make sure that as many copies as are specified are made without a problem.
- Check to make sure that the margin (L2) to the front of the copies made with each of the cassettes as the source of
paper is 2.0 1.5 mm; otherwise, make the following adjustments:
1) Slide out the manual feed unit and the cassette 1/2; then, open the pickup vertical path cover.
(In the case of a 2-cassette pedestal, cassette 3/4.)

5.2 Construction of the Electrical Circuitry


5.2.1 Outline

0000-4283

The major mechanisms of the main controller PCB are controlled by the CPU on the main controller PCB.
To save on physical space, the machines main controller PCB is divided into two: main and sub.
The sub PCB serves to process input images coming from the reader unit, while the main PCB serves to control jobs,
output images going to the printer, and memory.

5.3 Start-Up Sequence


5.3.1 Outline

0000-4285

The system control software used to control the machine is stored on the HDD. At time of startup, the CPU on the
controller PCB follows the boot program to read the system software from the HDD to the Image Memory (SDRAM)
on the controller PCB.
While the CPU reads the system software from the HDD to the Image Memory (SDRAM), the control panel shows
the following screen, and the startup sequence under way is indicated by the progress bar on the screen.

Starting up. Please wait.

Progress bar

F-5-6

Never turn off the main power while the progress bar is indicated. The HDD is being accessed during the period, and
turning off the power can cause a fault (E602) on the HDD.

5.3.2 Startup Sequence

0000-4286

<Boot ROM Area>


- Self Diagnosis Program
When the main power is turned on, the CPU on the main controller PCB executes the start-up sequence. In the course
of the sequence, the state of the image memory (SDRAM) and the HDD is checked, and an error code will be
indicated if a fault is detected.
- Boot Program
When the self diagnosis program ends normally, the CPI on the main controller PCB starts up the boot program.
When the program is run, the system software is read from the HDD and is written to the system area of the image
memory (SDRAM).
<Image Memory (SDRAM) Area>
A set of instructions is executed by the system software written in the boot program, initializing various settings (e.g.,
I/F settings of the main controller).

Chapter 5

When all the foregoing ends normally, the machine becomes ready to accept jobs. (The operation screen will appear
on the control panel, and the LED on the Start key changes from red to green.)

6.3.2.1 Changing the Reproduction Ratio

0000-4390

1. in copyboard cover mode, 100%


2. in ADF mode, 100%
MEMO:
- The speed of scanning is 234 mm/sec in black-and-white copy or black-and-white SEND mode (reduction by 50%);
to make up for the difference, the reading speed of the CCD is doubled, ultimately resulting in a 100%
reproduction ratio.
- The same is true of a resolution of 300 dpi or less in full-color SEND mode.

6.3.2.2 Changing the Reproduction Ratio in Main Scanning Direction

0000-4391

In copyboard cover mode and ADF mode, reading in main scanning direction is at 100% at all times, and the
reproduction ratio is changed through data processing in the main controller.

6.3.2.3 Changing the Reproduction Ratio in Sub Scanning Direction

0000-4392

In copyboard cover mode and ADF mode, reading in sub scanning direction is at 100% at all times, and the
reproduction ratio is changed through data processing in the main controller.

6.3.3.2 Scanning Lamp

0000-4394

The machine's scanning lamp is a xenon lamp made up of a glass tube in which xenon gas is sealed. On the outside
of the tube are 2 terminals laid in parallel in axial direction, while the inner side of the tube is coated with fluorescent
material. When a high frequency, high voltage is applied to the terminals, the gas starts to discharge, thus causing
the fluorescent material to emit light.

6.3.3.3 Turning On/Off the Lamp

0000-4395

The scanning lamp is turned on/off by the drive signal (LAMP_ON) sent by the CPU on the reader controller PCB.
When the signal is sent, the inverter PCB generates high-frequency, high voltage in the activation control circuit
using the drive voltage (+24 V) supplied by the reader controller PCB for the activation of the xenon lamp.

6.3.3.4 Checking for an Error

0000-4396

At time of initial activation (e.g., shading correction), the lamp is checked for a fault (low intensity, activation failure;
i.e., activation error caused by lack of intensity).
E220 (lamp activation error at power-on)
Indicates a fault in the inverter PCB, reader controller PCB, or scanning

6.3.4 Detecting the Size of Originals


6.3.4.1 Outline

0000-4397

The machine identifies the size of originals with reference to the combinations of the outputs of reflection type
sensors and the intensities of the CCD measured at specific points.
- in main scanning direction, of CCD (for AB, 4 points; for Inch, 2 points)
- in sub scanning direction, of reflection type photosensor (for AB, 1 point; for Inch, 2 points)
The machine identifies the size of an original using the following steps:
1. Search for External Light (main scanning direction only)
With the scanning lamp OFF, the level of the CCD at each point of detection is measured.
2. Detection of the Sensor Output Level
The scanning lamp is turned on, and the CCD level at each point of detecting in main scanning direction is
measured.
In addition, the LED of the reflection type photosensor in sub scanning direction is turned on to measure the output
of the sensor.

6-10

Chapter 6

The combination of these outputs is used to identify the size of the original.
For specific operation, see the pages that follow.

6.3.4.2 Points of Detection (original size)

0000-4398

For main scanning direction, the No. 1 mirror base is moved to the following positions to measure the intensity of
light at each point of detection. For sub scanning direction, the outputs of the sensors mounted at the following points
are used.

3. The copyboard cover is closed.


- If the external light is blocked, the machine
assumes the presence of an original; outside the
Original

(external light)

area, where light is detected, the machine


assumes that there is no original. (search for
external light)
At this point in time, B5, B4, A4, and A3 are
excluded.
- When the copyboard cover is brought to 30
deg, the copyboard cover sensor identifies the
condition to be "cover closed," thus causing the
machine to start original size detection.
- After a search for external light, the machine

turns on the xenon lamp (for main scanning


direction), and checks the reflected light by the
CCD at 4 points. For sub scanning direction,
the machine efers to the outputs of original
sensors.

4. The copyboard cover is fully down.


- The machine monitors the outputs of the
sensors for 5 sec after the copyboard cover
sensor has identified a "closed" state.
-If there is no change in the level, the machine
assumes the presence of an original at the
sensor. The machine uses the combination of
the outputs (changes) at 5 points.

press on the Start key).

7.3.2 Shading Correction

0006-0678

The output of the CCD is not necessarily uniform even when the density of the original is even for the following
factors:
1. variation in sensitivity among pixels of the CCD
2. difference in transmission between the middle and the edge of the lens
3. difference in the intensity of light between the middle and the edges of the scanning lamp
4. deterioration of the scanning lamp
The machine executes shading correction so as to even out the discrepancies in CCD output. Shading correction may
be shading adjustment, in which a target value is determined in service mode, or shading correction, in which a target
value is determined for each scan of the original.
Shading Adjustment
In shading adjustment, the density of the standard white plate is measured, and the result is stored in memory as
density data; the data is then computed to obtain the target value for shading correction.
Shading Correction
Shading correction is executed for each scan of the original. The density of the standard white plate is measured, and
the shading correction circuit compares the result against the target value stored in memory in advance; the result of
comparison is then used as the shading correction value to make up for the discrepancies among CCD pixels
occurring at time of scans, thus ensuring uniform image density.

8.2 Basic Sequence


8.2.1 Basic Sequence of Operations

0000-4455

The laser scanner motor starts to rotate when the Start key is pressed (or the print request signal is issued). When its
rotation has stabilized, the printer unit becomes ready for formation of images, causing the printer side to generate
the sync signal (PTOP).
The machine uses the signal to generate the sub scanning direction signals (Y-TOP, M-TOP, C-TOP, K-TOP) for
individual colors, and turns on the lasers of the corresponding colors.

8.3.5 Correcting Image Displacement


8.3.5.1 Outline

0000-4464

The following factors can displace images of individual colors:


- displacement of the photosensitive drum caused by replacement of the drum unit/toner container
->displacement in sub scanning direction
- displacement of laser path caused by replacement of laser unit
->displacement/angle in main scanning direction
- displacement in laser path length caused by changes in temperature inside machine
->variation in magnification
To correct the discrepancies in images, the machine executes corrective control for image position; it detects
displacement in color by forming a pattern of a specific color on the transfer belt and reading it against the correct
position.

8-11

Chapter 8

Detecting displacement in color

- during warm-up after the main power switch is turned on
- during warm-up after jam clear
- during warm-up after return from sleep
- during warm-up after replacement of the drum unit (not when the toner container is replaced)
- during warm-up when low-power mode is turned on after opening/closing of the cover while the machine is in low-

power mode
- 2 hr after the machine has been left alone in standby state
- during quick correction (auto gradation correction)
- after sheet-to-sheet auto correction when 300 sheets (small-size, equivalent in single-sided) have been fed
continuously
- during last rotation auto correction at time of counter increments occurring after intermittent jobs of 300 pages
(small-size, equivalent of single-sided)
- in response to changes in the environment
- when replacing the toner cartridge

8.3.5.3 Detecting/Correcting Color Displacement in Sub Scanning Direction

0000-4466

The Y pattern is used as the reference. The machine identifies the degree of color displacement in sub scanning
direction with reference to the timing at which other color patterns are checked after a check on the Y pattern.
If the timing is not correct, the machine corrects the laser write start timing in sub scanning direction.

9.3.6 Printing Originals Containing a Color Page

0000-4484

When making copies/prints of originals containing a color page, the machine uses the following sequence to avoid
a drop in productivity:
T-9-16
color original:
monochrome original:

full-color mode sequence


for 3rd and subsequent copies/prints after color page, fullcolor mode sequence for 4th and subsequent copies/prints
after color page, monochrome sequence

MEMO:
A switch-over from full-color mode to monochrome mode requires a sequence in which the high voltage of YMC
must be lowered. By reducing the use of such a sequence, the machine avoids an appreciable drop in productivity.

9.4 Image Stabilization Control


9.4.1 Outline of Image Quality Control

0000-4486

Changes in temperature/humidity or passage of time can cause the machine to produce images of varying quality. To
ensure that the quality of images remain stable, the levels of voltage outputs and volumes of toner supply are
corrected:

9.4.4 Discharge Current Level Control

0000-4489

- The machine controls the level of discharge current so as to ensure the optimum level in keeping with changes in
temperature/humidify. (The term "discharge current"refers to the current that occurs between the primary
charging roller and the photosensitive drum.) The current is controlled to a level that enables prevention of faulty
images in a high humidity environment and, at the same time, permits collection of toner remaining from transfer
to the developing assembly. Operation
1. An AC bias is applied to the primary charging assembly; the level of current occurring at the time is measured by
the high-voltage PCB (HV1-SUB) and is sent to the CPU on the DC controller PCB as feedback.
2. The roller is charged using the AC charging bias corrected by the CPU.
- If thick paper, special paper, or transparency is used, the frequency of the AC bias applied to the primary charging
roller is halved.
9-17

9.4.5 ATVC Control (transfer bias level correction)

0000-4490

The ATVC control mechanism is used to determine the optimum level of transfer voltage for transfer of images from
the photosensitive drum to the ITB, and from the ITB to paper.
The level of transfer voltage is corrected in relation to changes in temperature/humidity, deterioration of rollers, and
types of paper.
Description of Control
1. A reference voltage is applied to the transfer roller, and the level of current that occurs in response is checked by
the high-voltage PCB and communicated to the CPU on the DC controller PCB as feedback.
2. The machine executes transfer using a transfer voltage which is the result of correction by the CPU.

9.4.6 PASCAL Control (image gradation)

0000-4491

The PASCAL control mechanism is used to stabilize gradation characteristics of images on paper.
It makes up for the changes in gradation occurring in response to changes in temperature/humidity or as the machine
is used over time.
- PASCAL Control for Half-Speed
The mechanism is used to correct the changes in the gradation characteristics that otherwise would occur when thick
paper, special paper, or transparency is used. The test print used for the mechanism is the same as the test print
used for plain paper.
Description of Control

Differences Among 3 Test Patterns
- Test Print 1
It shows 64 gradations expressed by means of error diffusion processing, which is not subject to moire and,
therefore, used in text/photo/map, print photo, and text mode.
- Test Print 2
It shows 64 gradations expressed by means of screening with a low number of lines, which is suitable for the
expression of gradation and, therefore, is used for print film photo mode and when priority is placed on PDL.
- Test Print 3
It shows 64 gradations expressed by means of screening with a high number of lines, which is suitable for the
achievement of a high resolution and is, therefore, used when priority is placed on PDL resolution.

9.7.3.2 Secondary External Roller

0000-4511

The secondary transfer external roller is cleaned electrostatically.


Description of Control
A bias is applied to the secondary transfer external roller alternately using the polarity used for image formation
and the polarity opposite it for longer than the time it takes the roller to make a single rotation, thereby returning
the toner remaining on the roller to the ITB.
Timing of Control
1. when a copy/print job ends.
2. after recovery from a jam.
3. when a sample image (or test pattern) is formed as part of image stabilization control.

9.7.3.3 Collecting Waste Toner

0000-4512

The machine uses the following mechanism to collect waste toner.


Waste Toner
The waste toner is scraped off by the cleaning blade, and is moved to the waste toner box by the waste toner
feedscrew.
Waste Toner Box Full Detection
The waste toner sensor consists of a LED (light-emitting) and a phototransistor (light-receiving) to find out when
the waste toner box becomes full.

0000-4513

The machine uses the following mechanism to separate paper:


T-9-41
1. Separation

- Curvature (mechanical)
- Static Eliminator (static electricity)
It is grounded to lower the potential occurring on the back of
paper, thus facilitating the separation of paper from the ITB.

T-9-42
2. Separate
Auxiliary
Mechanism

- Feed Guide
It is used to prevent increases in the potential occurring on the
back of paper because of friction used when it is moved to the
fixing assembly.
It is used to prevent image faults caused by contact with the
attraction plate.
- Attraction Plate
It is grounded, and is used to draw paper.

9-46

Chapter 9

The eccentric arrangement of the 2 rollers causes the paper to separate


by taking advantage of the rigidity of paper (curvature separation).

The paper inside the cassette is held up by the lifter plate, and the pickup roller is borught down to the paper for
pickup.
The feed roller and the srpaton roller are used to make sure that no more than a single sheet of paper is moved to the
feeing assembly; the pickup vertical path roller/pre-registration roller is then used to move the paper a fara as the
kegistatoin roller (upper, lower).
The pickup vertical path roller and the pre-registration roller are each driven by the pickup 1 motor and the preregistration motor, respectively.

11.3 Various Control Mechanisms


11.3.1 Controlling the Speed of the Fixing Roller
11.3.1.1 Outline

0000-5017

The fixing roller is driven by a pulse motor used exclusively for it;
The roller is controlled for the following:
1) speed to suit the type of medium used
2) speed to suit the (large) quantity of printing work

Fixing speed

Plain paper

129.1 mm/sec

Thick paper

64.55 mm/sec

Monochrome transparency

129.1 mm/sec

Color transparency

64.55 mm/sec

Note: The speed of the fixing roller is reduced (to half) to ensure good fixing on thick paper (thick paper speed) or
on a full-color transparency (full-color transparency mode).

11-7

Chapter 11

11.3.1.3 Controlling the Speed According to the Quantity of Printing

0000-5019

If left unattended, the heat of the pressure roller would be absorbed by paper when a large quality of printing is under
way, causing the paper to curl appreciably upon delivery and, thus, making proper stacking difficult.To prevent
excess curling, the speed of the roller is reduced to half (as set in service mode) when as many as 100 large-size sheets
or as many as 200 small-size sheets have been handled.

To prevent deformation otherwise caused by the nip pressure of the fixing roller as occurring when the machine is
left unattended for a long period of time, the fixing roller is rotated for 0.5 sec at half speed (64.55 mm/sec) every 30
min after it has stopped (i.e., during standby/low power mode).

11.3.2 Controlling the Fixing Roller Temperature


11.3.2.1 Outline
The fixing roller is driven by a pulse motor used exclusively for it;
The roller is controlled for the following:
[1] speed to suit the type of medium used
[2] speed to suit the (large) quantity of printing work
[3] during printing
[4] between long sheet intervals
[5] in response to overheating in non-paper contact area
[6] during return from low-power mode

11.3.2.2 At Power-On

0000-5022

The fixing roller is heated by 2 fixing heaters (main heater H1, sub heater H2).
The main heater repeats remaining ON for 3.5 sec and OFF for 1.5 sec until the fixing temperature reaches 190 deg C.
The sub heater, on the other hand, remains ON throughout.
The pressure roller is kept warm by the heat retaining heater (which remains ON throughout).
The fixing motor starts to rotate when the temperature of the fixing roller reaches 90 deg C.
It keeps rotating for a further 300 sec after the temperature of the fixing roller reaches 190 deg C (warm-up state; so
as to maintain the temperature of the pressure roller; the machine accepts a print job during this period).
Starts here if the surface temperature
of the fixing roller is 90C or more when
the main power switch is turned on.

11.3.2.6 Overheating in Areas Without Paper

0000-5026

If the sub thermistor (TH2) registers 195 deg C or more, the machine turns off the sub heater.
If it registers 210 deg C or more, the machine also turns off the main heater.
When the temperature at the ends falls below 210 deg C, the machine turns on the main heater.
If the temperature at the ends falls below 195 deg C, the machine also turns on the sub heater.
If the reading of the main thermistor is below the control temperature at this time, the heaters are turned on.

11.3.2.7 Return for Low-Power Mode

0000-5027

After a lapse of 30 sec, the machine becomes ready to accept a job only in black mono mode.
In the case of color mode, the machine will not accept a job until the temperature of the fixing roller reaches 190 deg

12.4.3 Protection Function


12.4.3.1 Protective Mechanisms

0006-0766

The machine's power supply PCB and the power supply PCBs of its accessories are equipped with an overcurrent/
voltage protective mechanisms that prevent damage to the power supply circuit by automatically cutting off the
output voltage in the event of an overcurrent/voltage caused, for example, by a short-circuit in any of its loads.
If the protective function has gone ON, turn off the power switch of the printer unit, disconnect the power plug of
the printer unit or the accessories power supply circuit, and remove the cause of activation; then, leave the machine
alone for about 3 min, and turn it on to reset.

12.4.4 Backup Battery


12.4.4.1 Backup Power Supply

0006-0767

The SRAM PCB and the DC controller PCB of the machine's main controller PCB are each equipped with a lithium
battery for backup in the event of a power outage or disconnection of the power plug.

12.4.5 Energy-Saving Function


12.4.5.1 Outline

0006-0772

1. Standby Mode
In standby mode, the machine is in operation or is ready to operate, with all its parts supplied with power.
2. Power-Save Mode
The term "power-save mode" is used generically to refer to the following modes, in which the machine is supplied
with power differently than it is in normal mode: power-save, low-power, sleep. A shift in the direction of 'resent
power-save mode' to 'low-power mode' and then to 'sleep' mode occurs automatically.
- Power-Save Mode
T-12-10
Shift:

A shift to power-save mode is initiated only in response to a press on the Save


Power button on the control panel.

Description:

The power used by the machine is reduced according to the settings made in
user mode (immediate recovery, -10%, -25%, -50%; the fixing unit is
controlled to 190 deg C).

- Low-Power Mode (factory setting)


This mode conforms to the standards under Energy Star.
T-12-11
Shift:

A shift is made only in response to the passage of time (auto low-power shift
time) selected in user mode.

Description:

The power used by the machine is reduced to enable the machine to remain in
a state that satisfies the standards under Energy Star.The power supplied to the
reader unit will remain ON except the +24V power, which the reader unit uses
to generate internal power. (All operations remain at rest.)
The printer unit keeps the temperature of the fixing unit to a specific level (190
deg C) which is lower than when the machine is in normal operating mode.

- Sleep Mode (sleep mode 1 or sleep mode 2)


T-12-12
Shift:

A shift is made in response to the passage of time (auto sleep shift time)
specified in user mode or in response to a press on the control panel software
power switch.

12-13

Chapter 12

Description:

In sleep mode 1 (relatively higher power consumption), the fixing assembly


is totally deprived of power. The DC controller PCB, however, remains
supplied with power.
In sleep mode 2 (relatively lower power consumption), on the other hand, the
printer unit (including the fixing assembly) remains OFF; the main controller
PCB is supplied with all-night power as indicated in the table:

Chapter 13

13.1 Overview

0007-0341

The term MEAP stands for Multifunctional Embedded Application Platform, and is used to generically refer to a
platform for software built into MFPs and peripheral equipment. The architecture is based on Java (J2ME, i.e., Java
2 Platform Micro Edition), and is designed to enable the execution of Java applications.
A MEAP application behaves independently from its host printer's system software, and may be installed or
uninstalled using SMS (Service Management Service), which is an interface that runs as part of the browser on a PC.
As long as the device supports MEAP, most MEAP applications may be added to the device in the field.

13-1

Chapter 13

13.2 MEAP Counter

0007-0359

In addition to the commonly found print counters, a device that supports MEAP is equipped with a counter
mechanism used to keep track of which functions are used as well as how often they are used for individual MEAP
applications that are installed. The MEAP counter readings may be checked by making the following selections on
the device control panel: Counter Check Key>MEAP Counter Check. A device may possess the following MEAP
counters, and which counter to use and, therefore, to display all depend on the application in question.
A counter reading may be of a type that is forced to increase as a job is expected or of a type that is increased when
the application sends instructions; or, it may be of a type that increases independently of the host device, thus
increasing solely in response to the application being run; specifics are as follows:

Chapter 13

Notes:
forced: the device forces the counter to increase its reading in response to execution of a job.
in response to instructions from application: the counter increases its reading only in response to instructions from
the application.
application independent: the counter operates according to the specifications of the application.

13-3

Chapter 13

13.3 Construction of the MEAP Platform

0007-0346

In addition to the installation of the system software, language file, and RUI, a printer equipped with MEAP functions
calls for the installation of MEAP content, which offers functions (system services) needed to run MEAP
applications and class libraries needed by the MEAP applications to control the device.
It is important that the version of the system software be fully compatible with the version of the MEAP content,
calling for special care. (In the case of a mismatch, the device will not be able to run the MEAP application.) For
version information, refer to the Service Information bulletin that is released in conjunction with the system software.

14.1 Periodically Replaced Parts


14.1.1 Periodically Replaced Parts

0005-9998

Some parts of the machine must be periodically replaced to ensure a specific level of product performance (i.e., they
may not show wear but can significantly affect the machine performance once they fail). If possible, schedule any
periodical replacement so that it coincides with scheduled servicing.

The guide to periodical replacement is subject to change according to the site of installation and habits of use.

16.3.2.3 Light Image / Weak Density


16.3.2.3.1 Density is light on paper corresponding to machine rear side: Occurs concurrently with
diagonal uneven density of 12mm intervals when continuously outputting high image duty
original

0002-3362

[ Manual-related ]
Cause
This symptom occurs because toner replenishment cannot keep pace with toner consumption.
Field Remedy
In service mode (Level 2) [COPIER> Option> BODY> SLV-UP], select "1" or "2".
Note: The drum life will be shortened as a negative effect of "1". In addition to this, the print productivity will
decrease as a negative effect of "2".
16.3.2.3.2 Density fluctuation: appreciable after outputting images of a high color ratio continuously

0002-3372

Cause
The balance in toner inside the developing assembly fails; when the image stabilization mechanism goes ON in
this condition, the machine tends to base its contrast potential on the existing condition. When the balance
between the toner and the carrier inside the developing assembly returns, the density fluctuates in relation to the
selected contrast potential.
Field Remedy

0002-3391

Symptom
When an image with a high color ratio is generated continuously, the density at the rear tends to become too
low (light). It tends to occur simultaneously with uneven density in diagonal direction at intervals of 12 mm.
Cause
The amount of toner supplied cannot keep up with the amount of toner being consumed.
Field Remedy
Set '1'or '2'to the following in service mode: COPIER>OPTION>BODY>SLV-UP.adverse effect of setting it
to'1' the life of the drum unit will decrease.
adverse effect of setting it to '2' the life of the drum unit will decrease, and the print productivity will also

print an image with a high color ratio on thick paper (209g or more and coated paper)

0002-3398

Symptom
Uneven gloss (about 155 mm) occurs along the leading edge of the 1st print when an image with a high color
ratio is printed on thick paper (209 g or more and coated paper).
Cause
There is an appreciable difference in temperature between the 1st rotation of the fixing roller and its 2nd and
subsequent rotations (with a peripheral length of 155 mm).
Field Remedy
If prints are made continuously, the fault does not occur on the 2nd and subsequent prints.If prints are made
continuously, the fault does not occur on the 2nd and subsequent prints.
16.3.2.3.5 Flow image along the edges of the sheet: after the machine has been left alone in a high
humidity environment for a long time (e.g., 2 days)

0002-3411

Symptom
If the machine has been left alone in a high humidity environment for a long time (e.g., 2 days), flow image can
occur along the edges of the sheet.
Cause
The chemical elements on the surface of the photosensitive drum absorbs moisture from the atmosphere, thus
decreasing the resistance on the surface of the drum.

16-19

Chapter 16

Field Remedy
Add a cassette heater (to keep the inside of the machine warm).
Execute the following in user mode: adjust/clean>internal cleaning.
The symptom may disappear when several prints have been made on A3 paper.
16.3.2.3.6 Traces of delivery roller on thick paper (particularly, coated paper): When making copy
of high image duty original

0002-3503

[ Manual-related ]
Description
If thick paper (particularly, coated paper) is used on machines manufactured in the early stage of production (old
type of the delivery vertical path ass'y is installed), there might occur a difference in gloss between the area where
the delivery rollers come in contact and the other area, when the paper passes through the rollers, depending on
the paper in use and the toner duty of the original document.
Field Remedy
1. Replace the three parts listed below with a new one respectively.
2. In service mode (Level 2) [COPIER> Option> BODY> CTM-MARK], change the set value to "1".
Note: As a result of the setting change above, the paper delivery speed when the delivery vertical path ass'y is used
will be changed and thus the productivity might be affected. Therefore, be sure not to change it if the machine
operates normally.

16.3.2.7.7 White spots along trailing edge of halftone image on the 2nd side of duplex print made
after generating several sheets of simplex print in a high humidity environment (e.g. for the first
time in the morning)

0002-3429

Symptom
In a high humidity environment, a white spot occurs along the trailing edge of a halftone image on the 2nd side
of a double-sided print made after generating a single-sided print and turning on the power (e.g., for the first
time in the morning).
Cause
The fixing heat causes the moisture in the paper to evaporate, causing condensation on the delivery guide; if it
moves to the leading edge of the 1st side of a double-sided print, a transfer fault will occur along the trailing
edge of the 2nd side.
Field Remedy
Allow about 10 min between making a single-sided print and making a double-sided print so as to prevent
condensation on the delivery guide (thus the symptom).
16.3.2.7.8 White spots in a print made after power-on (e.g., for the first time in the morning) in a low
humidity environment

0002-3433

Symptom
A white spot occurs in a print made after power-on (e.g., for the first time in the morning) in a low humidity
environment.
Cause
The resistance of the secondary transfer external roller is too low, causing the voltage lower limit limiter to go
ON (the level of the secondary transfer current is too high)
Field Remedy
With care, make use of the following in service mode: COPIER>ADJUST>HV-TR>2TR-TGT/2TR-SHR/TRENV/TR-PPR/TR-CLR/TR-DUP.adverse effect of changing the setting: toner can move astray, worsening
white spots.
16.3.2.7.9 White spots along the trailing edge: when feeding dry paper (e.g., freshly opened paper)

0002-3455

Symptom
White spots occur along the trailing edge when dry paper is used (e.g., fresh out of package).
Cause
When the trailing edge of paper moves past the nip area of the secondary transfer external roller, the current
flowing to the trailing edge of the paper is limited.

16.3.2.7.13 Lines along the trailing edge on A3 or larger paper

0002-3474

[ Inspected by Canon Inc. ]


Cause
As paper is looped between the secondary transfer external roller and the fixing roller, an electrical discharge occurs
when its trailing edge leaves the intermediate transfer belt.
Field Remedy
Install the Spur (FG6-9648) to the ITB locking shaft. For the installation procedure, refer to Service Manual
[Troubleshooting > Correcting Faulty Images > Image Fault Case Studies > The output is soiled/has lines. >

cassette.

0002-3504

Symptom
Traces of the pickup roller occur along the leading edge of a transparency when the source of the transparency
is the cassette.
Cause
When a stack of transparencies is used, the leading edge of the bottom transparency is subjected to friction at
time of pickup, thus causing it to develop a scratch.
Field Remedy
Fan out the stack before placing it to correct the fault. Recommend the use of manual feeding.
16.3.2.7.16 White spots along trailing edge of halftone image on the 2nd side of duplex print in a
high humidity environment

0002-4666

16-49

Chapter 16

Symptom
In a high humidity environment, a white spot occurs along the edge of the paper in a halftone image on the 2nd
side of a double-sided print.
Cause
The paper is moist, and tends to become wavy after fixing on its 1st side; as a result, the wavy area prevents
proper transfer on the 2nd side and, ultimately, causes a white spot.
Field Remedy
Add a cassette heater, or recommend replacement of paper.
16.3.2.7.17 White spots in a print made after power-on (e.g., for the first time in the morning) in a
low humidity environment

0002-4671

Symptom
A 20 to 30 mm white spot occurs along the trailing edge of prints made on A3 paper.
Cause
The paper arches between the secondary transfer external roller and the fixing roller, and discharge occurs when
the trailing edge of the paper leaves the intermediate transfer belt, leaving traces.
Field Remedy
Set '1'for the following in service mode: COPIER>OPTION>BODY>FX-SPD.

0002-3471

Symptom
The back of a print made after power-on (e.g., for the first time in the morning) is soiled after making a doublesided print of a halftone image in Bk as the last job of the previous day.
Cause
The surface temperature of the fixing roller has grown too high causing toner to move from paper to the fixing
roller; the toner then moves to the surface of the pressure roller, soiling the back of the 1st print made for the
first time when the power is turned on the next time.

16-55

16.3.2.8.7 Rubbing mark at trailing edge of A3 paper

0002-3525

[ Case in the field ]


Cause
When the temperature at both ends of the fixing roller rises, the roller pressure becomes higher there. Under this
condition, it is possible the trailing edge of paper rubs against the ITB when it passes through the secondary transfer
external roller.
Field Remedy
Install the Spur (FG6-9648) to the ITB locking shaft. For the installation procedure, refer to Service Manual
[Troubleshooting > Correcting Faulty Images > Image Fault Case Studies > The output is soiled/has lines. >

moment. Adjust the document orientation or the scanning density.
16.3.2.8.9 Shade of original appears at lead edge of output image when making a copy by selecting
'Entire Image'

0003-2777

[ Verified by Canon Inc. ]


Cause
If one-by-one (direct) copy is selected, shade of the original will not appear on the output image because it
should be printed on the lead edge margin area. On the other hand, in the case of 'Entire Image' copy, the
original will be scaled down and the shade should be printed inside the lead edge margin area, appearing on the
output image.
Field Remedy
In service mode [COPIER>Adjust>ADJ-XY>ADJ-X], increase the set value so that the scanning start position
will be shifted backward and shade of the original will not appear. However, note that backward-shifting of the
scanning start position will widen the lead edge of original that is not printed on the output image.

16.3.2.10.1 Poor fixing: due to failure of the fixing temperature control (mostly E004 is displayed.)
Symptom
Poor fixing: due to failure of the fixing temperature control (mostly E004 is displayed.)
Cause

16-62

0002-3545

Chapter 16

1. Because of chattering of the fixing feeder unit open/closed sensor, the DC controller PCB mistakenly
considers the fixing feeder unit to be slid out and starts the temperature control of the fixing unit at 0 degrees C.
2. Because of a software bug, the cooling fan does not rotate in the low power mode, which causes a heat
deformation of the fixing/feeder sensor flag. Accordingly, even after the fixing feeder unit is closed, chattering
occurs and a failure of the temperature control also occurs as in the case of '1'.
Field Remedy
1. Upgrade the system to Ver4.03 and the DCON to Ver6.02.
2. Attach a sheet of mylar to the fixing/feeder sensor flag.
* For the mylar, please contact a division handling this issue.
16.3.2.10.2 Poor fixing, Toner peel-off

16.3.2.11.3 Color of output image is different from that of original: when thick paper is used

0003-2775

[ Manual-related ]
Field Remedy
Auto gradation adjustment has two different modes: for plain paper and for thick paper. If color reproductivity
is not stabilized with thick paper, execute auto gradation adjustment by selecting 'thick paper' mode.
16.3.2.11.4 Image is normal at 10cm area from image lead edge; however, right and left images
become interchanged on rearward area: paper size is A3

0004-9718

[ Case in the field ]


Field Remedy
There is a case in the field that the problem was solved by clearing the reader controller PCB's RAM. Turn the
power OFF/ON, and if the symptom still recurs, clear the reader controller PCB's RAM.
Before clearing the RAM, print the service mode setting values in service mode [COPIER> Function> MISCP> P-PRINT] in order to enter them as necessary after clearing the RAM.
Clear of RCON RAM can be done in service mode [COPIER> Function> CLEAR> R-CON].
16.3.2.11.5 PS-C1: Running 'ColorCAL' degrades gradation quality

0004-9854

[ Verified by Canon Inc. ]


Field Remedy
The quality of gradation may be degraded by running 'ColorCAL', as compared with the previous.
This symptom has been corrected with the PS-C1 system Ver.1.1.1, so upgrade it to Ver.1.1.1 and later if this
happens. Then, run 'ColorCAL' again.

16.3.2.12 Stretching/Shrinking
16.3.2.12.1 Image at trailing edge on 2nd side of A3 is distorted

0002-3500

[ Inspected by Canon Inc. ]


Cause
Since the rotation speed of the fixing roller is faster relative to the secondary transfer external roller, it is possible the
image can be stretched depending on the condition.
Field Remedy
In service mode level 2 [COPIER> Option> BODY> FX-SPD], set it to "-1".
As adverse effects of changing the setting, voids of 20mm-30mm long, image rubbing or voids along the trailing edge
could worsen. At that time, install the Spur (FG6-9657) to the ITB locking shaft. For the installation procedure,
refer to Service Manual [Troubleshooting > Correcting Faulty Images > Image Fault Case Studies > The output has
color displacement. > Mounting the Spur (FG6-9657)].

16.3.7.1.19 Fax number is not entered partially (in the actual failure case, 2nd digit)

0007-4511

[ Inspected by Canon Inc. ]


Description
If you enter a fax number using the numerical keys without pressing the "Fax" key immediately after switching to
the "Send" screen (this is not a proper procedure), the machine has to start up the entry screen of the fax number
and cannot accept any entry of the numerical keys in a fraction of a second because of software constraints. This
is to prevent any operational error even if some key operations are done during transition of the screens. In this
failure case, one digit of the fax number was not entered because the operator pressed the number during the
affected period of time.
Field Remedy
According to the proper procedure, press the "Fax" key after switching to the "Send" screen, and then enter the fax
number using the numerical keys. Or, enter the number slowly after making sure that the screen has been switched.

Cause
The iR C3200 has successfully sent out the email or ifax from the SMTP server, but cannot confirm that it has arrived

16-114

Chapter 16

the recipient server because it would be relayed via multiple servers.


Remedy 1: Confirm that the recipient has received it.
Remedy 2: Check if you have received an error notification.
Cause
The # 899 proves that the iR C3200 itself has sent the mail successfully.
In the Simple mode for iFax or email, iR C3200 is responsible for sending out data from its SMTP server but is not
responsible for tracing further transmission pathway to the recipient's mail server. Thus, it cannot judge if the
recipient can receive the data properly. In this sense, iR C3200 displays the # 899 to notify that it has sent data out
from the SMTP server successfully.
Field Remedy
Please explain the users the meaning of the # 899.
Remarks
This code appears when data is transmitted in Canon FTP with iW Gateway.

from your customer.
1. For the success tone:
In service mode [FAX>NCU>SPECIALB>SW04], change bit1 at '1' (to emit).
'0' (not emit: default)
2. For the error tone:
In service mode [FAX>NCU>SPECIALB>SW04], change bit0 at '1' (to emit).
'0' (not emit: default)

16.3.8 Jam (Main Unit)


16.3.8.1 Paper not picked up: although the paper sensor detects paper inside the
cassette

0002-3284

Symptom
Sensor detects cassette paper, though no paper is present.
Cause
When the cassette is set, though the pickup roller should descends and stop on the paper surface, the pickup
assembly spring (FS7-2800-000) was out of place so the roller returned to the original position and paper could
not be picked up.
Field Remedy
Remove the pickup assembly and attach the spring (FS7-2800-000).

16.3.8.7 0207 Jam Code: Because of deformation of internal delivery roller

0007-9931

[ Inspected by Canon Inc. ]


Description
The internal delivery roller was deformed by heat after long use and this degraded its paper delivery capability,
causing a paper jam. As a solution, in order to prevent the roller from being deformed by heat, a new part
"Delivery Cooling Fan Cable" is added and also the rotational sequence of the delivery cooling fan (FM5) is
modified. When this symptom occurs, follow the steps in Field Remedy below. The rotational sequence of the
fan is changed as follows:
- Original sequence:
The fan is off during standby and simplex copy, and rotates at full speed during duplex copy.
- New sequence:
The fan rotates at half speed during standby, and at full speed during simplex and duplex copy.
In addition, the following are starting serial numbers of the machine with the cable:

16.3.10.8 E004-0007 Error Code: Occasionally occurs first in the morning

0006-4441

[ Inspected by Canon Inc. ]


Description
E004-0007 can be displayed when temperature monitored by the sub thermistor becomes 140 degrees C or lower.
Cause
As a result of inspection, the following were found:
- When a jam code "0107" was recorded in the jam history together with E004-0007:
Since adhesive agent for locking the screws of the fixing drive motor (FG6-9079) stuck to the damper, the
vibration of the fixing drive motor cannot be absorbed by the damper, and thus the motor drive was not delivered
to the fixing roller, causing the roller fail to rotate. Accordingly, the surface temperature of the roller did not
become even, resulting in the error code.
- The DC Controller PCB is faulty.
Field Remedy
Follow the steps below:
1. Visually inspect the motor damper of the fixing drive motor. If adhesive agent sticks to it, remove it using a
jewelers screwdriver and check whether the error code will be resolved. If not, go on to the Step 2.
2. Visually inspect the fixing roller drive gears in the fixing unit for any abnormality.
3. Check the sub thermistor for any abnormality.
4. Check whether the gears in the fixing drive unit located on the back side of the host machine rotate at poweron. If not, remove the fixing drive unit and inspect the gears for any abnormality.
If no problem is found in the Steps 2 through 3, go to the next step.
5. In the field, this symptom was resolved by disabling the sleep mode in service mode [COPIER> Option>
USER> SLEEP> 0]. So, try this if possible.
6. If the Step 4 is impossible or the symptom still recurs, replace the fixing drive unit with a new one.
7. Replace the DC Controller PCB with a new one.

0002-1894

Symptom
E020-xx81: generally E020-0181 Error Code
Description
This error code is displayed when the coefficient of the SALT sensor contamination becomes lower than the
specified value; 70 or less in service mode [COPIER>Display>DENS>WINDOW-Y/M/C/K].
Cause
1. E020-0181: Since the service case storing the service book is not installed inside the front door, the SALT
sensor shutter is not opened. Consequently, the SALT sensor is unable to measure the density of sample patches
formed by the ATR control on the transfer belt.
2. E020-xx81: Since the SALT sensor is soiled, it is unable to precisely measure the density of sample patches
formed by the ATR control.

16-131

Chapter 16

Field Remedy
1. When E020-0181 occurs, first check whether the service case is installed inside the front door. If not, install
it to the designated position.
2. Check whether the SALT sensor is soiled with toner. If it is, slide the cleaning device several times or clean
the sensor with a blower brush. Do not rub the sensor surface with a dry cloth as it can be electrically charged
and soiled with toner again.
If E020-xx81 recurs even performing the above, replace the SALT sensor (FH7-7601) with a new one.

16.3.10.19 E020-0081 Error code Displaying when a copy is made with the service
case removed

0002-2508

Symptom
When a copy is made with the service case removed, E020-0081 is displayed.
Cause
There is a projection on the service case, which opens/closes the SALT sensor shutter. Therefore, if a copy is
made without the service case, E020-0081 is displayed.
Field Remedy
Re-attach the service case.

16.3.10.20 E020-0X34, E020-0X21 Error code Upon installation in a cold season

0002-3219

Symptom
The E020-0X34, or the E020-0X21 lights on when you install this machine in the cold season.
Cause
If you carry in this machine which has been placed in cold environment, condensation occurs because of the
temperature difference between the body and the room.
Condensation on the surface of the drum prevents toner from attaching to the drum, which causes the E0200X34 to light on.
Condensation on the patch sensor decreases the amount of light of the patch detecting sensor, which causes the
E020-0X24 to light on.
Field Remedy
Leave it as it is for about 15 minutes until condensation recovers.

16.3.10.83 E601-0xdd: after performing [COPIER>ADJUST>V-CONT-Y/M/C/K]


to improve faint image

0002-3339

Symptom
When adjusting faint image in service mode level 2 COPIER > ADJUST > V-CONT-Y/M/C/K, E061-0xdd is
displayed.
Cause
The adjustment range of service mode level 2 COPIER > ADJUST > V-CONT-Y/M/C/K is -30 to +30. When
adjusted in the + direction, the image gets darker.
Depending on the life of the drum, as the adjustment moves in the + direction, the charge DC exceeds the upper
limit and E061-0xdd is generated.
Field Remedy
Adjust image faintness as described below.
1 In service mode level 1 COPIER > DISPLAY > Y/M/C/K-DRM-LF, check the drum life. The correct range
is from 0 to 100%. If the life has been exceeded, replace the drum.
2 Perform user mode > adjust/ cleaning > automatic gradation correction > full correction.
3 In service mode level 1 COPIER > TEST > PG > THRU, set 0 (default) and 1, and output at each setting with
service mode level 1
COPIER > TEST >PG > TYPE=14
Compare the maximum density areas output at 'THRU 0' and 'THRU 1' and if the densities are different proceed
to step 4.
4 Adjust in service mode level 1 COPIER > ADJUST > PASCAL > OFST-P-Y/M/C/K, and again, in service
mode level 1 COPIER > TEST > PG > THRU, set 0 (default) and 1. With each setting, output service mode
level 1 COPIER > TEST >PG > TYPE=14.

16-161

Chapter 16

If the maximum density areas at 'THRU 0' are the same as those of 'THRU 1', carry out user mode > adjust/
cleaning > automatic gradation correction > full correction.
*Make a test copy. If the correct density is produced, the procedure is finished.
*If the correct density is not produced, go to step 5.
5 In service mode level 2 COPIER > DISPLAY > DENS > CHG-DC-Y/M/C/K, check the Vd value.
6Again, in in service mode level 1 COPIER > TEST > PG > THRU, set 0 (default) and 1. With each setting,
output service mode level 1 COPIER > TEST >PG > TYPE=14.
If 'THRU 0' is faint, adjust in service mode level 2 COPIER > ADJUST > V-CONT > VCONT-Y/M/C/K (1
unit: 10V). If the image is faint, increase the value.
Input a value that is 650V or lower when added to the the original value (as displayed in CHG-DC-Y/M/C/K)
by VCONT. If this value is exceeded, E061-0xdd will be generated and then the full correction performed in
step 7 will be disabled.
7 Perform user mode > adjustment/ cleaning> automatic gradation correction> full correction.

b. E602-0002: the host machine detects an error during reading the data from the HDD when the HDD starts up.
c. E602-0003: there occurs a discrepancy between the control data for the data stored in the HDD and the actual
data. (HDD sector Write Abort)
Field Remedy
a. E602-0001
Check a connection between the HDD and the Main Controller PCB. If there is no problem, replace the HDD with
a new one and reinstall the system software.
Or, replace the Main Controller PCB with a new one if it is faulty.
b. E602-0002
Reinstall the system software.
c. E602-0003
There are four partitions inside the HDD. The following are solutions depending on in which sector a write abort
occurs.
c-1. Write Abort in Image Storage Area
Turn the power OFF/ON, which can recover errors automatically.
c-2. Write Abort in other areas than Image Storage Area
c-2-1. If you can enter service mode:

[ Inspected by Canon Inc. ]


Cause
As a result of inspection, the following were found to be a main cause:
- The interface cable connecting the reader unit and the printer unit is not securely fitted.
- The Reader Controller PCB is faulty.
The following incidents were also found although they are not so many.
- The fuse (FU25) on the Fuse PCB is blown out.
- The DC Power Supply PCB is faulty.
- The Interface PCB is faulty.
- The DDI-S Board PCB is faulty.
- The CCD unit and the Reader Controller PCB is not securely connected.
Field Remedy

1. Unplug and plug the interface cable between the reader unit and the printer unit to see whether the host machine
will recover.
2. Make sure that all the connectors on the Interface PCB and the Reader Controller PCB in the reader unit are
securely fitted. If the symptom still recur, go to the step 3.
3. Check whether DC is output from J67 on the Fuse PCB located at the back side of the host machine. If DC output
is confirmed, go to the step 4. If not, go to the step 5.
4. Remove and install the DDI-S Board PCB and the Main Controller PCB (Sub) inside the controller box to see
whether the host machine will recover. If not, replace the Reader Controller PCB with a new one.
5. Check whether DC is input to J53/J56/J57/J58 on the Fuse PCB from the DC Power Supply PCB. If DC input is
confirmed, replace the Fuse PCB with a new one. If not, go to the step 6.
6. Check whether AC is input to the DC Power Supply PCB. If no problem is found with AC power supply, replace
the DC Power Supply PCB with a new one.
In addition to the above, it is possible that the Interface PCB (FM2-0036) or the DDI-S Board PCB (FG3-3136) is
faulty, so check them if necessary.

16.4.9.1 Adjusting the Variable Resistors (VR), the Light-Emitting Diodes (LED),
and the Check Pins by PCB

0001-0494

Of the resistors (VR), light-emitting diodes (LED), and check pins used in the machine, those needed in servicing
the machine in the field are discussed:

Those VRs and check pins that are not found in the lists are designed exclusively for use at the factory, requiring
special tools and measuring instruments. Do not touch them in the field.

Some LEDs permit flow of current when OFF; this is a normal condition, and must be kept in mind.

---VRs that may be used in the field.


---VRs that must not be used in the field.

18.1.4 Service mode backup

0000-5391

Each copier is adjusted at time of factory shipment, and the adjusted values are written on the service labels.
If you replace the reader controller PCB or DC controller PCB, or clear the RAM, the adjusted ADJUST and
OPTION values are restored to their default values, Therefore, always enter the new service mode values on the
service labels when you change the values as a result of adjusting the copier in the market, If the item you need to
enter is not listed on the service label, enter it in a balnk box.

0000-5411

T-18-42
Used to adjust the optical image leading edge position (image read
start position in the sub-scanning direction).
Adjustment method

- If the image's blank width is larger than the standard value, the
setting value should be decreased.
- If areas outside the document are also copied, the setting value
should be increased.
- Increasing the setting value by 1 moves the image read start
position by 0.1 mm in the direction of the trailing edge.
(The image read range moves in the direction of the trailing edge.)
- If you have cleared the reader controller PCB's RAM or replaced
the reader controller PCB, enter the value on the service label.

Adjustment
range

220 to 320 (Value at time of factory shipment: Factoryadjusted value)


(Value after RAM clear: 265)

Caution 1

After changing the setting value of this item, execute the following:
- COPIER > FUNCTION > CCD > SH-PS-ST

Caution 2

After changing the setting value of this item, enter the new value on
the service label.

Used to adjust the CCD's read start cell position (image read start
position in the main scanning direction).
Adjustment method

- If the image's blank width is larger than the standard value,


method the setting value should be decreased.
- If areas outside the document are also copied, the setting value
should be increased.
- Increasing the setting value by 1 moves the image read start
position by 0.1 mm toward you.
(The image read range moves toward you.)
- If you have cleared the reader controller PCB's RAM or
replaced the reader controller PCB, enter the value on the service
label.

Setting up a threshold for the accumulated number of outputs for the Dhalf control
sequence operation trigger.
Control

If the fixing unit is lower than a specified temperature when the machine is turned on
or recovered from the sleep mode, use this mode to make automatic full adjustments
during initial multiple rotations.
At this time, the Dhalf control is performed only if the number of outputs accumulated
since the last Dhalf control exceeds the value specified in this Service Mode.
Changing the timing of or canceling the Dhalf control (according to the number of
accumulated outputs) by using this mode can reduce the downtime in the morning. (A
measure for a complaint about the downtime in the morning)
Meanwhile, there is a possibility that gray scale (half-tone image) might be degraded
when the Dhalf control is cancelled.
With regard to the accumulated number of outputs, a small-size copy is regarded as 1
count, and a large-size copy is regarded as 2 counts.
When the Dhalf control is performed first thing in the morning or from the User Mode
(quick correction, full correction), the accumulated number of outputs is reset.

Operation method

1)
2)

Turn the main power switch OFF.


Connect the network cable to the copier and turn the main power
switch ON.

3)

Tell the user's system administrator that copier installation is


complete, and have them him/her the network settings.

4)

Ask the system administrator to allow you to perform a network


connection check, and check the address of the remote host (IP
address of the PC terminal in the user network) to send the PING.

5)

Select the COPIER > TEST > NETWORK > PING service mode
item, enter the IP address checked in Step 4 on the operation panel's
numeric keypad, and press the OK key.
If the copier is connected to the network normally, "OK" is
displayed (and the procedure is finished).
If "NG" is displayed, first check the connection of the network
cable. If the connection is normal, go to Step 6. If there is a problem
with the network cable's connection, redo the connection and redo
Step 5.

6)

Select the COPIER > TEST > NETWORK > PING service mode
item, enter the loop back address* (127.0.0.1), and press the OK
key followed by the start key.
If "NG" is displayed, there is a problem with the local TCP/IP
settings. Go back to Step 3 and check the settings again.
If "OK" is displayed, there is no problem with the local TCP/IP
settings. However, there could be a problem with the network
interface board (NIC) connection or the NIC itself. Go to Step 7 to
check the NIC.
*The loop back address returns the signal in front of the NIC,
enabling checking of the local TCP/IP settings.

7)

Select the COPIER > TEST > NETWORK > PING service mode
item, enter the local host address (local IP address), then press the
OK key.
If "OG" is displayed, there could be a problem with the NIC
connection or the NIC itself. In this case, check the NIC connection
or replace the NIC.
If "OK" is displayed, there is no problem with the local network
settings or NIC.
In this case, the problem may be with the user's network
environment. Explain the situation to the system administrator, and
ask them to deal with it.

19.1.3 Network Interface of the Machine with the SST in Use

0000-5451

The machine communicates with the SST using the Ethernet protocol (TCP/IP).
The machine offers the following 2 sets of network settings:
user environment network settings (user mode>system control settings>network settings)
service network settings (IP address: 172.16.1.100; subnet mask: 255.255.255.0, fixed)
The network settings are dependent on how the machine is started up.
The user environment settings are retained while the service settings are selected.
You need not change the user mode network settings before or after the use of the SST.
