1-2. Operator Call Error (Alarm Lamp Lit In Orange) Troubleshooting
Errors and warnings are displayed by the following ways:
- Operator call errors are indicated by the Alarm lamp blinking in orange, and the error and its solution
are displayed by the cycles of the lamp blinking.
- Messages during printing from a PC are displayed on the printer driver Status Monitor.
- Error codes (the latest five error codes at the maximum) are printed in the "operator call/service call
error record" area in EEPROM Information Print

Buttons valid when an operator call error occurs:


- ON button: To turn the printer off and on again.
- Black / Color button:
To clear and recover from an error. In some operator call errors, the error will
automatically be cleared when the cause of the error is eliminated, and pressing the
Black / Color button may not be necessary.
- Stop button: To cancel the job at error occurrence, and to clear the error.

2. REPAIR
2-1. Disassembly & Reassembly Procedures
General notes:
 Be sure to protect the printer from static electricity in repair servicing, especially for the scanner unit,
main PCB ass’y, and Wireless LAN PCB ass’y.
 Make sure that the flexible cables and wires in the harness are in the proper position and connected
correctly.
 Do not drop the ferrite core, which may cause damage.
 Before removing a unit, after removing the power cord, allow the printer to sit for approx. one minute
(for capacitor discharging to protect the main PCB ass’y from damages).
 Do not touch the timing slit strip film and timing slit disk feed film. No grease or abrasion is allowed.
 Protect the units from soiled with ink.
 Protect the housing from scratches.
 Exercise caution with the screws, as follows:
i. The screws of the paper feed motor may be loosened only at replacement of the paper feed
motor unit (DO NOT loosen them in other cases).
ii. Before loosening the three screws that fix the carriage rail to the main chassis, mark the screw

QY8-13FD-010
NOTE:
Before replacing or removing the cartridge, be sure to open the ink tank cover and turn off the tube
valve (black and color). If you forget to open the ink tank cover, the ink filled in the tube flows into the
tank side, and System Cleaning (stronger than Deep Cleaning) is required in order to replenish the ink
again.

For reference:
To replace the parts other than cartridge, follow the procedures below to remove the cartridge.
(If the cartridge is removed first, the ink tank cover may be accidentally closed when removing the other parts.
Therefore, follow the procedures below to replace the parts other than the cartridge.)

displayed instead of the printer serial number.
n
C o
If the main PCB ass’y is replaced in servicing, since the service part PCB has no serial number, the
serial number in the Service Tool will be blank. Using [Write S/N] in the Service Tool, set the printer
serial number to the replaced new PCB first.
- If the USB cable between the printer and the PC is disconnected during use of the Service Tool, that
Service Tool will not recognize the printer thereafter even if the printer is re-connected.
After re-connecting the printer, close (exit) the Service Tool, then launch it again.

iii. Special notes
- The Auto tab (one-click full inspection mode) is to check a series of basic operation of the printer
after repair, and it is not suitable to see if a specific problem pointed out by a user is repaired.
- DO NOT use the test on this tab to confirm that the user complaints are resolved.
- The tests of LAN, WLAN, Card Board, and PictBridge examine electric connection, and do not
examine the functionalities. Thus, the test results do not guarantee the functions themselves.

3-7. Special Notes on Servicing
(1) Ink absorber counter setting
Before replacement of the main PCB ass’y, set the ink absorber counter again.
Check the ink absorber counter value using the “D” value in the EEPROM information, and register it to the
replaced new main PCB ass’y. (The value can be set in 10% increments.)
When the ink absorber is replaced, set the ink absorber counter to 0% for whole replacement, or 30% for
partial replacement. For details, see 3-3, (5) Ink Absorber Counter Setting.

(2) Preventive replacement of ink absorber


To maintain a proper replacement frequency and avoid possible accidents such as ink leakage during
returning a printer to its owner, perform the following and replace the ink absorber even before ink
absorber becomes full:

How to judge:
Print the EEPROM information, and check the "D" (ink absorber counter) and the calculated ink absorber
life or the "DL" (ink absorber life) values.

Step 1:
Y .
Is "D" 80% or more? (to avoid coming-back-to repair due to ink full in a short period of time)
Yes (80% or more) ->
O
Replace the ink absorber. P
No (less than 80%) -> Proceed to Step 2.
T C
Step 2:
NO
Is the ink absorber life 24 or more? (to avoid ink leakage during returning the repaired printer to
its owner)
D O
i a
No (less than 24 months) ->
l, Replace the ink absorber.
t
den
Yes (24 months or more) -> No need to replace the ink absorber.

nfi
C o
How to know the ink absorber life:
Use the “DL” value in the EEPROM information.

Note: The ink absorber life is an estimated value calculated based on the user's printer usage.

How to read the EEPROM information print:

Installation date Last print date

QY8-13FD-010
(3) Remaining ink detection
As these products are CISS models, the volume of the ink replenished are managed by users, and the
printer may not detect the remaining ink level properly depending on the replenished ink volume.
Therefore, the specifications below are adopted.

<< Specifications: To disable the remaining ink detection >>


1) Fully fill all the ink tanks with initial ink at the set up.

2) No ink error occurs in any one of the color ink tanks Ink upper limit line
among Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow.

Ink lower limit line


3) Shifting to the user’s visual check is announced.

4) Replenish ink tanks with ink freely.

5) Press and hold the Start button, and the remaining ink detection will be disabled at the same time as
the release of the error.

6) The remaining ink level is visually checked by the customer.

5) In order to generate no ink error continuously, press and hold the Start button for five seconds or
more. (The counter is reset, and the detection is continuously performed.)

Note: If all colors of the ink tanks are replenished with ink to the point of the ink upper limit line, the printer
cannot detect the remaining ink level properly.

(4) How to Replace the Cartridges


How to replace the cartridge is non-public to users, and it is replaced in the following two special modes:

< How to replace the cartridge in the user mode >


1) Open the scanner unit cover with the printer on (no error).

2) Press and hold the Stop button for five seconds or more.

3) The carriage moves to the far left of the printer.

4) Press and hold the Stop button for five seconds or more.

5) The carriage moves to the cartridge replacement position.

(109/123)
QY8-13FD-010

7) Open the cartridge holder.

8) Replace the cartridge.

9) Close the cartridge holder.

10) Push the joint lever.

11) Close the main tank covers for both black and color ink tanks, and then close the scanner unit cover.

9) Close the main tank covers for both black and color ink tanks.

10) Close the scanner unit cover.

Note:
If you forget to open the main tank cover, the ink filled in the tube flows backward into the tank side, and
System Cleaning (stronger than Deep Cleaning) is required in order to replenish the ink again.

(5) How to Replace the Cartridges


Ink is supplied from the ink tank to the cartridge using the tube. Opening the main tank cover (tube valve
lever) stops the supply of ink and prevents the air from entering the tube. If the air enters the tube, the
printing problem occurs. To solve this problem, System Cleaning is required. Therefore, when replacing
the service parts in repair servicing, be sure to open the main tank cover (tube valve lever) (left open)
before removing each part or replacing parts. When replacing the carriage as well, removing the cartridge
holder after opening the main tank cover (tube valve lever) prevents the air from entering, be sure to open
the main tank cover (tube valve lever) before replacing the carriage. If you forget to open the main tank
cover (tube valve lever) (the same is true on the case the main tank cover (tube valve lever) is closed on
the way), System Cleaning is required.

(110/123)
QY8-13FD-010
(6) Ink Absorber Replacement
The following replacement methods are available:
Whole replacement: All the ink absorbers are replaced. The printable pages after the replacement are
15000 pages. (The time required for the replacement is approx. 30 minutes).
Partial replacement: Two pieces of absorbers are replaced. The printable pages after the replacement are
11000 pages. (The time required for the replacement is approx. 3 minutes).

Note: In the partial replacement, set the ink absorber counter value to 30%.

Depending on the usage, select the appropriate replacement method.

(7) System Cleaning


System Cleaning is a function of replacing ink when the bubbles, and air have gotten mixed in with the
tube, therefore, an enormous amount of ink is consumed. System Cleaning can be executed from the
printer driver or the printer’s properties, however, note that a large amount of ink is consumed, and that
you should reduce the use of System Cleaning as the ink absorber may be full by just performing System
Cleaning several times. (System Cleaning consumes an enormous amount of ink at one time, therefore,
the waste ink amount increases by approx. 30 % of the total. This may cause the field claims “the ink is
consumed too early” or “The Waste Ink Absorber Full error occurs early.”)

Cleaning as soon as possible).

C
There are the following two methods of
how to perform System Cleaning:

(1) Use Utilities in the driver.


(2) Use the operation panel. Press
and hold the Stop button, and
release the button after the Alarm
lamp blinks five times.

NOTE:
When executing System Cleaning, select All Colors in order to reduce the waste ink amount.

< Precautions for System Cleaning >


Confirm that the amount of the remaining ink is greater than the single dot of the main tank before
executing System Cleaning. Executing System Cleaning with the insufficient remaining ink may cause
the failure.
The counter of remaining ink detection is cleared by System Cleaning, therefore, make sure to replenish
ink tank with ink to the liquid level when the ink is fully filled before using continuously remaining ink
detection.

QY8-13FD-010
< About non-ejection of ink >
After a certain period of time from the first use of the printer, the accumulation of the air in the cartridge
may cause non-ejection of ink.
NOTE: Depending on the usage environment, the time to non-ejection of ink varies.

[Cause]
The air penetrates into the ink cartridge slowly from the outside for material reasons, therefore, the
cartridge has an air layer and the ink is not getting to the nozzles, resulting in non-ejection of ink.

[Solution]
Perform System Cleaning.

(8) On Re-box or Refurbishment


Ink is supplied from the main tank to the cartridge (print head) using the tube. After the initial setup, a large
amount of the ink is supplied to the tube. After that, ink always stays inside the tube. Once ink is supplied to
the tube, ink cannot be removed as per specifications (the same applied to the ink inside the tank), therefore,
the product with the initial setup completed cannot be refurbished.

In repair servicing:
< In Remote UI / AP mode >
Advise the customers the following:
- The login password for Remote UI and AP mode changes to the serial number if the main PCB ass’y
is replaced in repair servicing.
- If the customer changed the password to the desired one, or forgot the password, press and hold the
Stop button, release it after the ON lamp flashes 21 times, enter the login password “the serial
number,” and he / she can log in to Remote UI / AP mode.

< At the initial Wi-Fi setup >


Advise the customers the following:
(1) The items displayed in “Printers on Network List”
The serial number displayed in “Printers on Network List” at the initial Wi-Fi setup is the last five digits
(numerical part) of the serial number registered in the printer. However, if the main PCB ass’y is replaced
in repair servicing and the serial number is registered, “the last five digits of the serial number” is
displayed as with the initial setup. Select “the serial number (the last five digits)“ to proceed the Wi-Fi
setup.

Notes on the transportation:
- Never remove the cartridges (print head). Transport the printer with the print head installed.
- Lock the carriage at the home position (far right of the printer).
(If you cannot lock the carriage due to an error or failure, manually move the carriage to the far right).
- Secure the carriage with the tape.
- Pack the printer in a plastic bag so that the surroundings may not get dirty with ink.
- Pack the printer in a sturdy box so that it is placed with its bottom facing down, using sufficient
protective material.
- Ensure the packed box remains flat and NOT turned upside down or on its side.

In order to prevent the ink leakage during transportation, the following actions will be taken:
- The instruction sheet “Retain this bag.” is taped on a plastic bag for packing the printer in order to
advise customers not to discard the plastic bag and to use it for transporting the printer.
- The instruction label for transporting the printer will be attached to the position seen when the
scanning unit cover is opened in order to advise customers to put the printer in the plastic bag when
transporting the printer.
- The mark indicating the following advices for customers is added to the top surface of the outer

QY8-13FD-010
(11) The phenomenon “Decreased ink level of ink tank”
The G4000 series is equipped with the buffer room in order to adapt the change of temperature and
humidity (to prevent ink leakage due to the expanded air in the ink tank).
In the cases below, ink is flowed into the buffer room, therefore, the amount of the ink that is visible to
users seems to be reduced. However, the ink flowed into the buffer room is supplied to the print head
through the tube to be usually used.

1. When meniscus between the ink room and the buffer room is broken due to the impact on the printer
2. When rapid temperature change or pressure change occurs
3. When the cartridge is removed without opening the ink tank cover
4. When the joint lever is unseated as it is pushed again without opening the ink tank cover.
5. When the ink tank cover is closed without closing the caps of the main tank completely

(12) On Replenishing ink tanks with ink


Be careful not to fill the ink tanks with incorrect color ink. Once the incorrect color ink is replenished, color
mixture occurs. In this case, repair servicing is required.

C o
If 1470 error occurs, check if the cartridge joint lever is securely pushed.

(15) Durability of Ink on Photo Paper


As with G1000 series, G2000 series, and G3000 series, the ink for the G4000 series does not support
ChromaLife100. On photo papers, the new ink can be discolored more easily. Depending on how the
printouts are stored, discoloring starts within one year after printing. (On plain paper, the color fastness is
higher than on photo paper, and the color remains unchanged over a year after printing in most cases.)

< Cause and prevention >


Discoloring occurs when the printed ink is exposed directly to the air.
When you receive user inquiries on discoloration of photo paper printouts, advise the users of the following
to keep the printed colors longer:

“Keep the printed photo papers in an album or plastic bag, etc. to avoid them from exposed to the air.”

Caution: a) If the cartridge is removed from the printer and left alone by itself, ink (the pigment-
based black ink in particular) is likely to dry. For this reason, keep the print head
installed in the printer even during transportation.
b) Securely lock the carriage in the home position, to prevent the carriage from moving and
applying stress to the carriage flexible cable and ink tubes, or causing ink leakage,
during transportation. Make sure that the carriage is locked in place at power-off.
