Laser Printer Service Manual

Introduction

This chapter covers the general start-up, Power On Self Test, and power supply
operations of the printer to aid in troubleshooting problems not associated with an
error code or front panel error message. For troubleshooting problems associated with
an error code or front panel error message, notes on how to use the troubleshooting
procedure tables, and how to use service diagnostics, see Chapter 3 "Error Messages
and Codes" on page 3-1.

Troubleshooting procedures will isolate a problem to a specific component or
subassembly, in some cases including the wiring harness.

Preliminary Procedures

1.

Is the AC power provided at the wall outlet within specifications for this printer;
either 110 VAC or 220 VAC?

2.

Is the AC power cord in good condition (not frayed or broken)?

3.

Is one end of the AC power cord connected to the printer?

4.

Is the other end of the AC power cord plugged into a grounded three-pronged AC
wall outlet?

5.

Is the printer located in an area where the temperature and humidity are moderate
and stable as recommended in the General Information section?

6.

Is the printer located in an area that is free of dust?

7.

Is the printer located away from water outlets, steamers, electric heaters, volatile
gases, or open flames?

8.

Is the printer shielded from the direct rays of the sun?

9.

Does the printer have the correct ventilation space around all sides as
recommended in the "Physical Dimensions and Clearances" on page 1-11?

10.

Is the printer sitting on a level and stable surface?

11.

Is the paper stock used in the printer as recommended in the "Media and Tray
Specifications" on page 1-14?

12.

Does the customer use the printer as instructed in the User Guide?

13.

Are consumables replaced at the intervals recommended in "Consumables" on
page 1-9?

14.

Is the Print Cartridge properly installed?

15.

Are all of the printer assemblies in place and are all printer covers and doors
firmly closed?
