CHAPTER 10 TROUBLESHOOTING

VIII. SELF DIAGNOSIS

A. Copier

The microprocessor on the copier’s DC controller is provided with a self diagnosis mechanism that checks the condition of the machine (sensors, in particular). The copier runs self diagnosis and, when it identifies an error, indicates a code that represents each specific error. If the copier finds an error associated with E000, E001, E002, E003, and E004, it automatically shuts itself off (error auto power-off).
