6.Problem solving
The system is designed to help you find and solve problems as they happen. The system detects hardware and software problems, displays error or fault messages and screens, and sounds an alert tone (if it is enabled) when a problem needs to be corrected.
This section of the operator guide describes how the system informs you of problems. When you know there is a system problem, you can take measures suggested by the system to correct the problem. You can also use the problem and solution tables in this section to resolve recurring problems. Included are detailed procedures that are required to resolve some of the problems.
If you are not able to correct a problem, or you have a question about system operation, you should call the Customer Support Center. If the Customer Support Representative cannot solve your problem over the phone, a Service Representative will be dispatched.
How problems are displayed
Hardware problems show themselves by way of messages, document misfeeds, paper jams, poor prints, fault codes, and system components that do not operate correctly.
Software problems usually show up as messages in the status area of the screen or as fault codes on the fault frames. Some software problems affect hardware behavior. For example, the printer may operate without producing any prints. This is a condition called "dead cycling."
