Preliminary on-site checkout

Most problems with the ColorPASS are caused by loose board or cable connections; therefore, this section describes the quick checks you can do to locate and fix obvious problems. This section first describes how to eliminate any problems with external connections to the back of the ColorPASS, and then addresses checking internal board and cable connections. It is a good idea to check external and internal connections before replacing any components.

NOTE: First, verify that the network is functioning, no unauthorized software or hardware is installed on the ColorPASS, and there are no problems with a particular print job or application. The on-site administrator can help you verify these issues.

For problems that persist after you have checked the external and internal connections, this section goes on to provide a comprehensive list of internal and external checks that may help you fix the problem.

This section includes the following:

•“Checking external connections” on page 5-3

Describes the quick checks you can do to make sure the problem is not caused by a loose connection at the back of the ColorPASS.

•“Checking internal components” on page 5-4

Describes the quick checks you can do to make sure the problem is not caused by a loose board or cable connection inside the ColorPASS.

•“Inspecting the system” on page 5-5
