Troubleshooting
Whenever the machine stops or operation is not possible, check the operation panel
display for messages. In most cases, these messages will give sufficient information to
return the machine to an operating condition. In cases where this information is not
enough, check the list below for more information. This section describes problems
concerning copier features. For troubleshooting specific problems related to the
printer, network scanner, and fax features, see the separate manuals provided for
these features. For problems related to other peripheral devices, see page 1-56.
