Serial Port Service Check

Run the “Serial Wrap Test” on page 3-14.

The Serial Wrap Test is designed to check the serial port hardware, by using a wrap plug (P/N 1329048) which invokes the Serial Post Diagnostic Test. The test isolates the printer from the serial cable and host, displaying failure information for approximately three seconds. If the test indicates a problem, replace the controller board.

Toner Level Detect Service Check

Note: The toner level sensor is mounted on the same board as the new cartridge detect sensor and is located in the bottom of the printer. The toner cartridge contains two mirrors mounted behind a window in the cartridge that reflect infrared light from an LED, mounted on the sensor board, back to a photo transistor also mounted on the sensor board.

The printer does not detect the level of toner left in the cartridge.
