Operator panel service check

Inspect the operator panel cable for damage. Make sure the cable is plugged in securely. Run POST, and check each light for proper operation. See “Power–On Self Test (POST) sequence” on page 2-1.

Fuser (exit sensor)

If the exit sensor flag, which is visible at the back of the fuser, is in any position other than

 

vertical, then the printer will display a paper jam. Make sure the flag is operating freely.

 

Replace the fuser if the sensor is damaged.

Check for +5 V dc on pin 2 and 5 at J27 (input/duplex sensors) and pin 2 at J23

 

(Input sensor). Voltages on pins 1 and 4 at J27 pin 1 at &23 should change as the

 

flags intersect with the sensor.

 

If correct, then replace the input paper feed sensor.

 

If these voltages are not correct, then replace the controller board.

 

Check the pick tires. Clean or replace as necessary.
