Precautions

Precautions

Always observe the following general precautions when servicing the Unit-H1 assembly:

1. Report any shipping damage.

If there is any evidence of shipping or handling damage to packing boxes or their
contents, save the damaged boxes and parts, call the shipper immediately to le a claim,
and notify your authorized service/support center.

2. Never alter an existing network without permission.

The Unit-H1 is probably connected to an existing Local Area Network (LAN) based on
Ethernet hardware. The network is the link between the customers computer, existing
laser printers, and other prepress equipment. Never disturb the LAN by breaking or
making a network connection, altering termination, installing or removing networking
hardware or software, or shutting down networked devices without the knowledge and
express permission of the network administrator.

3. Never assign an IP address in Network Setup.

Only the network administrator should assign an IP address to a network device.
Assigning an incorrect IP address to the Unit-H1 can cause unpredictable errors on any
or all devices.

4. Follow standard ESD (electrostatic discharge) precautions while working on the internal
components of the print engine.

Static is always a concern when servicing electronic devices. It is highly unlikely that the
area around the print engine is static-free. Carpeting, leather-soled shoes, synthetic
clothing bers, silks, and plastics may generate a static charge of more than 10,000 volts.
Static discharge is capable of destroying the circuits etched in silicon microchips, or
dramatically shortening their life span. By observing standard precautions, you may avoid
extra service calls and save the cost of a new board.
When possible, work on a ground-connected antistatic mat. Wear an antistatic
wristband, grounded at the same place as the antistatic mat. If that is not possible:
Attach a grounding strap to your wrist. Attach the other end to a good ground.
When you remove an electronic component, place it into an antistatic bag
immediately. Do not walk across a carpet or vinyl oor while carrying an unprotected
board.
Leave new electronic components inside their antistatic bags until you are ready to
install them.
When you unpack the electronic components, touch a metal area of the print engine to
discharge the static on your body. Place the components on a grounded antistatic
surface, component-side up.

5. Avoid exing a printed circuit board, and handle it by opposing edges (not corners) only.
6. Never set a cup of coffeeor any liquidon or near any components or the print device.

The print engine power supply (see the documentation that accompanies the
print engine)
11
Checking connections

Power scheme

The Unit-H1 has its own power supply and AC power cable. To function, the Unit-H1
must be connected to the print engine and to a proper AC power outlet. The Unit-H1
will not start up until the print engine is powered on. Powering off the print engine
powers off the Unit-H1 also.
When you power off the print engine, the Unit-H1 takes awhile to shut down and power
off. Always check the DIAG LEDs on the connector panel of the Unit-H1; when the
LEDs go out, the Unit-H1 is off.
The Unit-H1 power supply supplies power directly to the motherboard and to the
HDD. From the motherboard, power goes to the PORT 80 board and the enclosed fan
(see Figure F on page 15 and Figure G on page 16).
The Unit-H1 powers off and on by means of the print engine power switch. The
Unit-H1 shuts down if it is disconnected from the print engine. In normal usage, the
customer can leave the Unit-H1 plugged in to the AC power outlet and connected to the
print engine.
Before you perform service on the Unit-H1 hardware:
Power off the Unit-H1 using the print engine power switch.
Unplug the Unit-H1 from the AC power outlet.
If you plan to open the Unit-H1 while it is connected to the print engine (

not



recommended

), make sure also to unplug the print engine from its AC power outlet
before you open the Unit-H1.

Restoring functionality after service
To complete service procedures performed on the Unit-H1, install the Unit-H1 inside
the print engine as described in the Unit-H1 installation instructions (not provided
in this guide) and verify that it is working properly. To verify the installation, check the
connections of the Unit-H1 rst to the print engine and then to the network.
TO REASSEMBLE AND VERIFY THE UNIT- H1
1. Reseat any boards, cables, connectors, and other parts of the Unit-H1 that you loosened
or removed during inspection or service. (Exception: Do not connect cables to the HDD
until step 2.)
2. Install the lid and connect the HDD cables: insert the three tabs into the tab slots on the
connector panel (see Figure C on page 8); hold the lid vertically while connecting the
cables to the HDD (see Figure Q on page 29); close the lid over the chassis and secure
the lid to the chassis with the 10 screws you removed earlier (see Figure E on page 14).
3. Install the Unit-H1 in the print engine and reassemble the print engine as described in
the Unit-H1 installation instructions (not provided in this guide).
4. If you installed a new HDD, install system software (see System software on page 35).
A spare HDD is shipped without system software.
5. Before you leave the customer site, verify Unit-H1 operation as described in the
following ow diagram.
FIGURE S Steps to verify Unit-H1 connection
Printing Unit-H1 pages
The print engine LCD allows you to print special pages from the Unit-H1. These pages
include the Conguration page and the Test Page.
Power up and print Unit-H1
Test Page (see page 32).
Check the Setup options (see
Conguration and Setup).
Connect the Unit-H1 to the network and
verify (see page 33).

Printing Unit-H1 pages
Printing the Conguration page
The Conguration page lists all the settings in effect from the current Setup. After you
have finished running Setup, print a Configuration page to confirm your settings. If the
Unit-H1 is rebooting, allow the Unit-H1 to reboot and return to Idle before printing a
Conguration page.
Before you perform any service procedure, print the Unit-H1 Conguration page (if
possible) so that you are prepared to return the settings to their former congurations, if
necessary.
After the connection to the network is made, the network administrator can customize
Setup options according to the network and user environment. Using the Conguration
page as a guide helps speed up this process. For more information, see
Conguration and Setup, on the User Documentation CD.
Printing the Test Page
Before connecting the Unit-H1 to the network, print the Test Page. The Test Page is a le
that resides in the Unit-H1. Output veries that the Unit-H1 is functional and
connected properly to the print engine.
TO PRINT UNIT- H1 PAGES FROM THE PRINT ENGINE LCD
1. Select the Printer tab on the print engine LCD, and then select Printer Status/Setting.
2. Select Functions from the print engine LCD.
3. Select Print Pages from the print engine LCD.
4. Select the Test Page, Conguration page, or other page from the Print Pages menu.
5. Examine the Test Page.
If the Test Page prints, you know that the Unit-H1 is functional and that the connection
between the Unit-H1 and the print engine is good. When you examine the Test Page,
keep in mind that:
All patches should be visible, even though they may be very faint in the 5% and 2%
range.
Each patch set should show uniform gradation from patch to patch as the tone lightens
from 100% to 0%.
Poor image quality may indicate a need to calibrate the system or service the
print engine.
6. Post the current Conguration page near the Unit-H1 for quick reference.
Users may need the information on this page which describes the current Setup
conguration.

TO CONNECT A TWISTED PAIR CABLE TO THE UNIT- H1
1. Shut down and power off the Unit-H1 before connecting the Unit-H1 to any network
device (see To shut down the Unit-H1 from the print engine LCD on page 12).
2. Connect the network cable to the appropriate RJ-45 network connector on the Unit-H1
connector panel (see Figure T on page 33).
3. Congure Setup options.
It is the network administrators responsibility to congure Setup according to the
network and user environment. Default settings in Setup may be adequate, although they
may not be optimal, for the users environment. For setup information, refer the network
administrator to Conguration and Setup, on the User Documentation CD.
4. After conguring Setup options, verify the network connection.
After the network connection has been made and the Unit-H1 has the correct Setup
conguration and is Idle, the Unit-H1 should be available on the network.
The network administrator should perform any additional network Setup, verify the
network connection, verify that the Unit-H1 appears in the list of printers, and print a
few test documents from a networked computer that will use the Unit-H1. (For more
information, see Conguration and Setup, on the User Documentation CD.)

The following sections identify the sources of common problems that may occur with
the Unit-H1 and suggest ways of correcting them.
NOTE: These sections do not attempt to provide troubleshooting information for
attached computers such as PCs, for print engines, or for extensive networks. Refer
problems in these areas to the appropriate service departments and network
administrators.
The troubleshooting process is designed to eliminate the most obvious causes of failure
before progressing to more complex issues. Where problems occur on page 47 gives an
overview of the Unit-H1 components and indicates areas most likely to require
troubleshooting.
Try a phone check before you go to the customer site.
Before you go to the customer site on page 49 suggests areas you should check before
making a service call to the customer site. With a phone call, you can nd out if the
problem is a simple operating failure or a failure caused by a network or conguration
change. You can ask the customer to check for loose cables on the back of the print
engine and loose connections at a power strip or outlet.
Check for obvious causes of problems.
Check network connections.
Preliminary on-site checkout on page 50 takes you through the initial visual checks
you should make when you arrive at the customer site.
Checking the network on page 51 provides guidelines for checking the network
connections between the print engine and the computers to which it is connected, as
well as information on several printing problems.
Where problems occur
The Unit-H1 is a built-in print server for print engines, and it is generally part of a
conguration like the one shown in Figure Y. Problems may occur in one of the
following areas:
The Unit-H1 or the print engine
The interface between the Unit-H1 and the print engine
The interface between the Unit-H1 and computers that print to it

Troubleshooting
Before you go to the customer site
Before you make a service call to a customer site, talk to the customer on the phone, and
check the following items:
1. Does the print engine work?
If the print engine works, but the user cannot print the Unit-H1 Test Page, a service call
is probably required.
2. Is the failure caused by a simple operating problem?
Is there a printing problem?
Does the Unit-H1 Test Page fail to print?
Does the Unit-H1 fail to respond to a print command?
Does printing seem to take a long time?
Is print quality poor?
Does the Unit-H1 fail to appear in the list of printers?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, refer the customer to the user
documentation.
If the customer has followed the corrective actions in the user documentation and has
failed to solve the problem, be prepared to make a service call. Keep a log of the failures
the customer has observed.
3. Has the customer made any network changes?
If network changes have occurred, request that the customers network administrator
verify the Unit-H1 network requirements.
4. Is the user having printing problems with a particular image le?
If there are problems with les from particular applications, the user may be more
successful using different print settings.
If your telephone call fails to solve the problem, proceed to the next phase, the
preliminary on-site checkout.
50
Troubleshooting
Preliminary on-site checkout
Your goal in the preliminary on-site checkout is to eliminate obvious problems, such as
loose or missing cables and connectors.
Checking connections
See Checking connections on page 7.
See other documentation for guidelines when disassembling, checking, and reassembling
the print engine.
If all cables and connections look good and the problem still exists when the print engine
is powered on, proceed to the next phase of troubleshooting.
51
Troubleshooting
Checking the network
Printing problems may arise if the network hardware or software is not set up properly or
does not match network settings on the Unit-H1. Problems may also arise when printing
from a specic application or printing a particular le.
Most of these problems show up as printing problems and do not necessarily indicate a
Unit-H1 malfunction. The customers network administrator can eliminate many
printing problems without requiring you to make a service call. The network
administrator deals with:
Error conditions on the print engine
Network connection problems that result in the print engine not appearing in the list
of printers on the customers computers
NOTE: If the print engine does not appear in the list of printers on the network, there may
be another device on the network with the same IP address.

condition may be caused by a le or an application
problem.
3. Make sure that the appropriate printer description le is
installed. See the user documentation for a list of printer
les.
A missing or outdated printer
description le.
The application cannot nd the
appropriate printer description le.
If the user can print the Unit-H1 Test Page but cannot print a job from a computer on the network, make sure the network
administrator has:
Checked all components of the network, including cables, connectors, terminators, network adapter boards, and network drivers.
Activated the network and used it to communicate with other printers.
Checked the corrective actions listed in the user documentation.
Conrmed that the applicable network settings in Setup (such as AppleTalk zone, IP address, Subnet mask, and Gateway address)
match the settings used in the network.
NOTE: EPS le generation is not completely standardized among applications. Some users may encounter problems while printing
certain EPS les.

Troubleshooting
Printing to the Unit-H1
If the customer can print the Unit-H1 Test Page but cannot print a job from a computer
on the network, you may have to make a service call. However, rst make sure the
network administrator has done the following:
Checked all components of the network, including cables, connectors, terminators,
network adapter boards, and network drivers.
Activated the network and used it to communicate with other printers.
Conrmed that the applicable network settings in Setup (such as AppleTalk zone,
IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address) match the settings used in the network.
When you make a service call, check the Unit-H1 faceplate to make sure that the
appropriate network connection is in place. Print quality problems are difcult to trace.
Before you try to troubleshoot print quality problems, print a Test Page to make sure that
the print engine does not need servicing or adjusting. Also, make sure the correct paper is
being used in the print engine.
NOTE: EPS le generation is not completely standardized among applications. Some users
may encounter problems while printing certain EPS les.
If the printer does not print
The following table lists possible causes and solutions when the printer does not print.
TABLE B Causes and solutions when printer does not print
Possible Cause Solution
Is the power on? Turn on the print engine.
Are the two print engine interface
connectors properly connected?
Make sure print engine interface connector is properly connected to the print engine.
Is the specied paper loaded? Load the specied paper in any of the input trays.
Can you print a Test Page from
the printer driver?
If you cannot, the print engine may be out of order. Contact your authorized service
support center.

Problem Action
An image is printed on the reverse
side of the paper.
Reload the paper in the paper tray upside down.
Multiple pages are fed through the
print engine at once.
Remove all the pages from the paper tray and fan them gently before reloading.
Paper misfeeds occur frequently. Check the paper size settings. Use the recommended paper. Avoid using curled, folded,
wrinkled, perforated, or glossy paper.
It takes too long to complete the
print job.
The data is so large or complex that it takes additional time to process. Look for
indicators on the print engine that data is being processed and give it time to nish.
