Fuser service checks

920.xx—Cold fuser service check

Error codes 920.x and 922.xx may display for a cold fuser failure.

Some 920.xx error codes may be cleared by turning the printer on and off and allowing it to complete POR.

CAUTION: There is a danger from hazardous voltage in the area of the printer where you are working. Unplug the printer before you begin, or use caution if the printer must receive power in order to perform the task.

Service tip: Some 920.xx errors can be caused by multiple sheets of paper being fed up to the fuser.

Service tip: Set the Fuser Temperature to NORMAL before starting this service check. In Diagnostics mode,

select EP SETUP, and Fuser Temp.

Service tip: It may take several minutes for the error codes 920.xx and 922.xx to be displayed after the printer is turned on.

Fuser lamp

Observe the lamp through the left near side of the printer. It may be

necessary to remove the redrive assembly to observe the lamp

 

turning on and off. If the lamp does not come on do the following:

 

 

 

 

• If not previously removed, remove the redrive assembly. See

 

 

“Redrive assembly removal” on page 4-74.

 

 

• Remove the fuser assembly. See “Fuser assembly removal” on

 

 

page 4-26.

 

 

• Make sure the correct type of lamp is installed (voltage and

 

 

wattage).

 

 

• Verify that the fuser to fuser lamp cable is installed correctly to the

 

 

fuser top cover assembly. If incorrect, install correctly; if correct,

 

 

go to step 2.

AC line voltage

CAUTION: When taking measurements for AC power, observe all

 

 

safety precautions.

 

 

Check the AC line voltage to make sure it is within operating

 

 

specification. If incorrect, inform the customer; if correct, go to step 3.

 

 

 

3

LVPS

CAUTION: When taking measurements for AC power, observe all

 

 

safety precautions.

 

 

Unplug the AC line cord from the printer and pull the LVPS out far

 

 

enough to access CN1 on the LVPS board (see “Low voltage power

 

 

supply removal” on page 4-54). Disconnect the LVPS to fuser AC

 

 

cable, plug in the line cord, turn the printer on and measure the

 

 

voltage between CN1-1 and CN1-3 on the connector (see the

 

 

connector locations at “Low voltage power supply” on page 5-10).

 

 

If incorrect, replace the LVPS assembly (see “Low voltage power

 

 

supply removal” on page 4-54); if correct, go to step 4.

to fuser lamp cable)

 

• If there is no continuity, check the continuity of the fuser to fuser

 

 

 

 

lamp AC cable. If incorrect, replace the lamp, if incorrect, replace

 

 

the fuser top cover assembly.

 

 

Note: If the fuser lamp is replaced, allow the fuser assembly to cool

 

 

or a 925.xx error may be displayed.
