CHAPTER 2 ERROR INDICATIONS &
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. INTRODUCTION
Troubleshooting is a collection of solution procedures that service personnel should follow if
an error or malfunction occurs in the machine. It is difficult to determine troubleshooting
procedures for all possible problems that may occur in the future. Therefore, this chapter
describes typical problem cases and recovery procedures for these. These will help service
personnel identify and repair other similar defective sections.
1.1 Precautions
Be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent any secondary problems occurring
during troubleshooting:
(1) Be sure to unplug the AC power cord before removing any covers or PCBs, adjusting the
machine, or conducting continuity tests using a tester.
(2) Do not hold the cable when connecting or disconnecting the cable. Be sure to hold the
connector.
(3) Static electricity charged in your body may damage electronic parts.
Before handling the PCBs, touch a metal section of the machine to discharge static
electricity.
When transporting PCBs, be sure to wrap them in conductive sheets.
When replacing PCBs, wear a grounding wrist band and perform replacement on a
conductive mat. Also take care not to touch the conductor sections on the flat cables.
(4) Be sure to always observe all warnings.
(5) After repair is completed, check that the repaired sections, including those removed
once and then remounted, operate normally.
2-1 Confidential
1.2 Checks before Commencing Troubleshooting
Check the following items before commencing repairs on the machine.
Operating environment
(1) The machine is placed on a flat, stable surface.
(2) The machine is used in a clean environment where the temperature is between 10°C
(50°F) and 32.5°C (90.5°F) and the relative humidity is maintained between 20% and
80%.
(3) The machine is not exposed to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust.
(4) Hold the machine level while moving it.
Power supply
(1) Power described on the rating label attached on the machine is supplied. Power
fluctuation should be within ±10% of the rated voltage.
(2) The AC input power supply is within the regulated value.
(3) The cables and harnesses are connected correctly.
(4) The fuses are not blown.
Document
(1) The recommended paper is used for the document. (Refer to "5.2 Media Specifications"
in Chapter 1.)
(2) The document is not damp.
(3) Acid paper is not used.
Others
(1) Condensation
When the machine is moved to a warm room from a cold location, condensation may
occur inside the machine, causing various problems as listed below.
• Condensation on the surface of optical devices such as the CIS glass and CIS unit
may result in poor quality of scanned images.
• Condensation on the pick up roller or reverse roller may cause document feed
problems.
If condensation has formed in the machine, leave the machine for at least two hours
until it reaches room temperature.
(2) Low temperature
The motor may not operate normally in a cold environment because too much load is
applied to each drive. In this case, increase the room temperature.

CHAPTER 3 DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY
1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
To avoid creating secondary problems by mishandling, follow the warnings and precautions
below during maintenance work.
• Be careful not to lose screws, washers, or other parts removed.
• Be sure to apply grease to applicable positions specified in this chapter.
• When using soldering irons or other heat-generating tools, take care not to accidentally
damage parts such as wires, PCBs and covers.
• Static electricity charged in your body may damage electronic parts. When transporting
PCBs, be sure to wrap them in conductive sheets.
• When replacing the PCB and all the other related parts, put on a grounding wrist band and
perform the job on a static mat. Also take care not to touch the conductor sections on the
flat cables or on the wire harnesses.
• After disconnecting flat cables, check that each cable is not damaged at its end or short-
circuited.
• When connecting flat cables, do not insert them at an angle. After insertion, check that the
cables are not at an angle.
• When connecting or disconnecting harnesses, hold the connector body, not the cables. If
the connector is locked, release it first.
• After a repair, check not only the repaired portion but also harness treatment. Also check
that other related portions are functioning properly.
• After assembly, it is recommended to conduct dielectric test and continuity test.
