Print quality service checks

Note:

Ensure cover is closed tightly. A gap in the opening may allow

light to expose the photoconductor resulting in a ‘dirty’ print.

FRU

Action

Toner cartridge

Remove the toner cartridge and
gently shake it to evenly distribute
the toner.

Check for cartridge damage.

Printhead
Printhead cable
HVPS board
LVPS board
Engine board (E320/E322)
Controller card (E220/E321/E323)

Blank pages can be caused by a
defective printhead assembly, HVPS,
LVPS, engine board (E320/E322) or
controller card
(E220/E321/E323).

• Printhead errors typically result in

printer service errors.

• Blank pages typically are caused

by the PC roll not being properly
charged.

Unplug the printer and check
continuity between the HVPS solder
pads marked DC (below fan) and the
corresponding pin inside the printer.

• If there is not continuity, remove

the HVPS and clean/replace
springs.

Try a different cartridge. If it fails,
replace the HVPS.
