Transfer roll service check

Service tip: The transfer roll is 51.02 mm (2.009 inch) circumference. Any print quality problems such as lines that are spaced 51.02 mm apart indicate you should check the transfer roll for damage and check for toner or foreign material buildup.

Service tip: The transfer roll assembly is part of the maintenance kit and is replaced when an 80 Scheduled Maintenance displays. Ask the customer if they have replaced the transfer roll recently.

CAUTION: Make sure the printer is unplugged before making any checks on the transfer roll or associated parts for personal safety and to prevent damage to the printer.

1

Transfer roll assembly

Check the transfer roll for toner buildup, surface damage to the roll,

 

 

oil, or other contaminants on the surface of the roll. Replace the

 

 

transfer roll as necessary.

 

 

 

2

Left transfer arm assembly

Check the left transfer roll arm assembly to make sure it is fastened

 

 

and locked in the down position. If the arm is not locked down, make

 

 

sure the arm is not broken and locks into the EP frame correctly.

 

 

Check the left transfer arm assembly spring for proper operation.

 

 

 

3

Right transfer arm

Check the right transfer arm assembly to make sure it is fastened and

 

assembly

locked in the down position. If the arm is not locked down, make sure

 

 

the arm is not broken and locks into the EP frame correctly. Check

 

 

the right transfer arm assembly spring for proper operation. For any

 

 

background problems, ensure the contact to the HVPS board is

 

 

correct and that there is approximately 0 ohms resistance between

 

 

the transfer roll shaft and the HVPS contact. If correct, go to “Print

 

 

quality—background” on page 2-118.

HVPS—917 Error code

Check the voltage at J15-3. The voltage changes from +24 V dc with

 

 

the printer idle to 0 V dc when the printer runs the print test. If the

 

 

voltage is incorrect, check the continuity of line J15-3 in the front

 

 

cable harness to the HVPS. If there is no continuity, replace the cable

 

 

harness. If there is continuity, replace the HVPS. If the problem

 

 

continues, replace the system board.
