ProblemAction

Does the Fan turn on for about 4 seconds when you first turn the printer on?

Note: Fan operation is significant since the Fan is controlled by the printer’s Engine Controller Board. An operational Fan indicates the following:

1.AC power is present in the printer.

2.DC power supply is functional (both 24VDC and 3.5VDC are being generated).

3.The Engine Controller Board’s micro-processor is functional.

If the Fan is not working:

1.Turn the printer off and remove the printer’s Formatter PCA. Disconnect all the printer’s Paper Handling Options.

2.Turn the printer on and check the Fan again.

If the Fan is still not working, perform the following steps:

1.Verify that the fan is connected to the Engine Controller Board.

2.Replace the Fan.

3.Replace the Engine Controller Board.

If the Fan is working but the printer’s Control Panel is blank:

1. Print an Engine Test. See “Engine Test” on page 7-11.

If the Engine Test is successful, perform the following steps: a. Reseat the Control Panel and Formatter Connector. b. Replace the Control Panel Assembly.

c. Replace the Formatter.

d. Replace the cable from the Control Panel.

2.If the Engine Test is not successful, replace the Engine Controller Board.

Note

The Fan only operates during initial power on and while printing, unless

 

the temperature inside the printer is too high. If the temperature is too

 

high, the Fan turns on to cool the inside of the printer.
