Fuser lamp

Turn the printer off and allow the fuser assembly to cool. After the

 

 

fuser assembly cools down, turn the printer on. If you receive the

 

 

same error code, replace the fuser lamp. See “Fuser lamp removal”

 

 

on page 4-32.

 

 

Note: If the fuser lamp is replaced, allow the fuser to cool or a 925.xx

 

 

error could be displayed.

 

 

 

Fuser exit sensor service check

If any of the following codes are displayed, there is a potential problem in the area of the exit sensor: 201.00, 201.02, 201.10, 201.12, 201.22, 201.30, 201.32, 201.40, 201.41, 201.42, 201.50, 201.52, 201.92, 202.00, 202.02, 202.04, 202.10, 202.11, 202.12, 202.14, 202.20, 202.21, 202,22, 202.24. 202.30, 202.31, 202.32, 202.34, 202.40, 202.41, 202.42, 202.44, 202,50, 202.51, 202.52, 202.54, 202.90, 202.91, 202.92, and 202.94.

Action

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1

Fuser exit sensor (exit

 

Enter the Diagnostic mode, select BASE SENSOR TEST, select the

 

 

sensor test)

 

Exit Sensor to test for proper operation. If the exit sensor fails the

 

 

 

 

test, go to step 2. If the exit sensor passes, go to step 5.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2

Fuser exit sensor cable

 

Check the fuser exit sensor cable for correct installation or for any

 

 

 

 

signs of damage to the cable or connectors. If no problem is found,

 

 

 

 

go to step 3. If a problem with the installation is found, install the

 

 

 

 

cable correctly. If damage to the cable or connectors is found, replace

 

 

 

 

the cable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3

Fuser exit sensor flag

 

Make sure the sensor flag is not binding and is operating properly. If

 

 

 

 

the sensor is operating properly, go to step 4. If it is not operating

 

 

 

 

properly, repair or replace the sensor assembly. See “Fuser exit

 

 

 

 

sensor removal” on page 4-28.

Fuser assembly

 

Check the continuity of the fuser exit sensor cable. If incorrect,

 

 

Fuser exit sensor cable

 

replace the cable; if correct check the continuity of the fuser to

 

 

 

system board cable. If incorrect, replace the cable; in correct, replace

 

 

Fuser board

 

 

 

 

the following FRUs in the order shown:

 

 

Fuser to system board

 

• Fuser board.

 

 

 

cable

 

• Fuser assembly. See “Fuser assembly removal” on page 4-26.

 

 

System board

 

 

 

 

• System board. See “System board and inner shield removal”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

on page 4-76.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5

 

 

With the redrive assembly removed from the printer, enter the

 

 

 

 

Diagnostics mode and run the print test from tray 1 (for example,

 

 

 

 

select PRINT TESTS, Tray 1, and Continuous) and observe the

 

 

 

 

media as it passes over the exit and narrow media sensors. Check

 

 

 

 

that the sensor flags are operating correctly. If the sensor flags and

 

 

 

 

hardware are operating incorrectly, repair or replace the failing

 

 

 

 

sensor assembly. If no problem is found, check the fuser for any signs

 

 

 

 

of media in the fuser or any signs of toner or other contamination. If a

 

 

 

 

problem is found, clean or remove the debris or contamination.
