Customer Engineers
Maintenance shall be done only by trained customer engineers who have completed service training for
the machine and all optional devices designed for use with the machine.
Maintenance shall be done using the special tools and procedures prescribed for maintenance of
the machine described in the reference materials (service manuals, technical bulletins, operating
instructions, and safety guidelines for customer engineers).
In regard to other safety issues not described in this document, all customer engineers shall strictly
obey procedures and recommendations described the "CE Safety Guide".
Use only consumable supplies and replacement parts designed for use with the machine.
In this manual, the following important symbols and notations are used.
A Warning indicates a potentially hazardous situation. Failure to obey a Warning could result in
death or serious injury.
A Caution indicates a potentially hazardous situation. Failure to obey a Caution could result in
minor or moderate injury or damage to the machine or other property.
Obey these guidelines to avoid problems such as misfeeds, damage to originals, loss of
valuable data and to prevent damage to the machine.
This information provides tips and advice about how to best service the machine.
Before You Begin
Safety
To prevent fire hazard, never use flammable aerosol sprays around the machine.
Before you replace any unit, to prevent electrical shock, turn off the machine with the operation
power switch at the left, front corner of the machine. Wait for the machine to shut down, and
then disconnect the machine from the power supply.
Allow the machine to cool for at least 30 minutes before replacing a part.
Do not remove any covers or screws other than those explicitly mentioned in a procedure.
Inside this machine are high voltage components that are an electric shock hazard and laser
components that could cause blindness.
This machine displays all of the adjustment items in the “Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators”
menu and advanced settings for custom paper regardless of whether or not the items are for options, or
if the options have been installed.
Any modification to the option settings does not take effect unless the applicable options are
installed on this machine.
Settings can be adjusted with the “Advanced Settings for Skilled Operators” (the product specialist
who have received TCRU training), or with SP codes settings by the CE.
In this guide, the skilled operator adjustment is given first, followed by the corresponding SP code
setting which can be done by the CE only.
Always note the current setting before you make any change.
If a problem persists despite the setting being changed, restore the value you made a note of.
Operating the machine with the changed setting may cause problems such as reduced print
quality.
If the problem persists even though the setting has been changed, restore the value noted.
Operating the machine with the changed setting may cause problems, such as inferior printed
images.
Self-Diagnostic Mode
As soon as the main machine is powered on, the controller waits for the initial settings of the copy
engine to take effect and then starts an independent self-diagnostic test program. The self-diagnostic
test follows the path of the flow chart shown below and checks the CPU, memory, HDD, and so on. An
SC code is displayed in the touch panel if the self-diagnostic program detects any malfunction or
abnormal condition.
In addition to the self-diagnostic test initiated every time the main machine is powered on, you can set
the machine in a more detailed diagnostic mode manually in order to test other components or
conditions that are not tested during self-diagnosis after power on.

SC Code Descriptions
Self-Diagnostic Mode
At job end or when the machine is switched off, both sides of the ITB unit are lowered and
separated from the drums.
However, after a power failure or accidental disconnection of the power cord, or after a
machine issues an SC code after a malfunction, both or one side of the ITB may remain up
against the drums.
To avoid damage to the ITB, both sides of the ITB must be checked and lowered before the
ITB unit can be pulled out of the unit.
The ‘SC Table’ section shows the SC codes for controller errors and other errors. The latter are put into
four types. The type is determined by their reset procedures. The table shows the classification of the
SC codes.

The machine cannot be used (down-

28
1.SC Codes
SC Logging
When an SC is generated, the "total count value when the SC is generated" and the "SC code" are
logged. However, if the total count value during the SC is the same as last time, logging is not
performed.
Logged data can be checked by outputting an administrative report (SMC print). The SC history is
logged up to the last 10 entries, and if there are more than 10 entries, data are progressively deleted
starting from the oldest.
SC Automatic Reboot
When a type D occurs, automatic reboot is done or the machine display asks the customer if it can
reboot. However, when the SC occurs twice in a short time, the machine sends a report to the
@Remote server without rebooting. This is because just rebooting may not be a good solution if an SC
occurs twice.
When an automatic reboot is performed, a confirmation screen is displayed after reboot. The
confirmation screen can be cancelled by pressing the [OK] key (display is not cancelled only when the
main power switch is switched OFF to ON).
Timing of SC reboot
When @Remote is enabled, and when a NRS alarm*1 is not generated, the corresponding SC is
the object of an automatic reboot.
*1 NRS alarm: Issued when an ordinary SC (type D) is generated twice while the total counter
counts 10 times.
Time to automatic reboot
Reboot is performed 30 seconds after an engine reboot is possible, after the end of post-
processing during printing, etc.
At that time, a reboot is performed even if the MFP is operating. The engine does not start process
control when a reboot is possible.
Automatic reboot
See the flowchart below.
30
1.SC Codes
SC Manual Reboot
When the automatic reboot is disabled in SP5-875-001 (SC automatic reboot setting), the user reboots
the machine manually. See the flowchart below.
31
1.SC Codes
SC Code Descriptions
Here are some important points to keep in mind when working with the SC codes:
If a problem concerns a circuit board, disconnect and reconnect the connectors and then test the
machine. Often a loose or disconnected harness is the cause of the problem. Always do this before
you decide to replace the PCB.
If a motor lock error occurs, check the mechanical load before you decide to replace the motor or
sensors.
When a Pattern "A" or "B" SC occurs while in an SP mode, the machine cannot display the SC
number. If this occurs, check the SC number after leaving the SP mode.
The machine reboots automatically when the machine issues a Pattern "D" SC code. This is done
for Level "D" SC codes only.
32
1.SC Codes
Never turn off the main power switch when the power LED is lit or flashing. To avoid damaging the
hard disk or memory, press the operation switch to switch the power off, wait for the power LED to
go off, and then switch the main power switch off.
The main power LED lights or flashes while the platen cover or ARDF is open, while the main
machine is communicating with a facsimile or the network server, or while the machine is
accessing the hard disk or memory for reading or writing data.
Here is summary of the SC code groups.

2.Image Quality Problems
Toner Spotting/Staining
Paper Spotted with Toner
Cause:
Toner fragments have slipped through the cleaning web (which cleans the pressure roller) re-adhered to
the paper.
This may occur when:
Printing on both sides of paper
Printing on uncoated (especially rough-textured) paper
Printing a single-dot halftone image
To adjust the following settings, register beforehand the type of paper that you are using
Solution:
Increasing the temperature when using thin paper with a thickness equivalent to Paper Weight 0 or 1
may cause paper curling, resulting in paper jams at the fusing unit.
1. Raise the temperature by 5°C in Fusing Heat Roller Temperature Adj in Advanced Settings for the
custom paper in use.
2. Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Go to the next step.
3. Raise the temperature an additional 5 °C in Fusing Heat Roller Temperature Adj.
4. Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Go to the next step.
5. Have changes to the settings resulted in glossy lines or paper misfeed?

2.Image Quality Problems
Yes Lower the temperature by 10 °C, and then go to the next step.
No Go to the next step.

7. Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Contact the product specialist.
Decreasing the value in Adjust Cleaning Web Motor Interval will shorten the replacement cycle
of the cleaning web.

Cause:
The drum is scratched or stained.
Solution:
1. Remove the photoconductor unit and check the drum surface. Is the surface dirty?
Yes Clean the drum surface.
No Go to Step 3.
2. Print the image. Is the problem resolved?

No Go to the next step.
3. Is the surface of the drum scratched?
Yes Replace the drum.
No Consult the product specialist.
629
2.Image Quality Problems
Streaks (1)
Cause:
The charger is dirty.
The PCDU cleaning unit is worn out.
The drum surface is scratched.
Solution:
1. On the TCRU menu, execute [Clean Charge Unit]. Or perform SP2-220-001 (CH Clean Operation)
2. Remove the charge unit and check its surface. Is the surface dirty?
3. Make a test print. Is the problem resolved?

Neither: Consult the product specialist.
8. If the problem persists even after you have replaced the cleaning unit for the PCU or drum, consult
the product specialist.
630
2.Image Quality Problems
Streaks (2)
Extended, blurred streaks parallel to the paper feed direction appear. The streaks also appear randomly
in the margins.
Cause:
If the temperature or humidity is low, the cleaning blade of the ITB cleaning unit or transfer unit may
miss the remaining toner, causing streaks to appear sporadically.
Solution:
1. Is the printed side affected by the problem?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Consult the product specialist.
2. Replace the ITB cleaning unit.
3. If the problem persists after you have replaced the ITB cleaning unit, consult the product specialist.
Streaks (3)
Cause:
There are small clumps in the toner, which break down in the development unit, producing streaks.
This problem may occur if the machine was not used for a long period, or the toner bottle was left
outside its moisture barrier bag for a long period of time.
631
2.Image Quality Problems
Solution:
1. Print 350 full-page, solid-fill A3 or DLT sheets.
2. Check the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished
No Replace the toner bottle.
3. Print 350 full-page, solid-fill A3 or DLT sheets.
4. If the problem persists, consult the product specialist.
Streaks (4)
Streaks appear over the entire paper surface after the machine was on Standby for a long period of
time.
Cause:
During Standby, the hot roller and pressure roller are rotated at intervals in order to maintain the fusing
temperature. This rotation can cause a small amount of friction between the pressure roller and
cleaning web, causing tiny scratches on the surface of the pressure roller, and particles to collect on the
web. These minute particles on the surface of the web can transfer to the paper surface and cause
black streaks in images.
Solution:
632
2.Image Quality Problems
Changing these settings can shorten the service life of the cleaning web, because the machine
will occasionally roll up the web during Standby.
If the operator is experiencing this problem, advise the operator to turn the power of the
machine OFF, rather than keeping it in Standby Mode for long periods of time. If the machine
is not being used at night, they should be advised to turn its power to OFF.
Two 13-mm long vertical streaks appear within 50 mm (2.0 inches) from the leading edge.
633
2.Image Quality Problems
Cause:
The invert exit drive rollers or invert exit idle rollers in the drawer are dirty. This may occur when sheets
are delivered face down after one-sided printing.
Solution:
Clean the rollers, sensors, and guide boards in the drawer.
1. Make sure that power is turned to OFF, and the machine power cord is disconnected from the
power source.
2. Open the front covers.
3. Lower the levers C1 and C2, and then pull the drawer out completely until it stops.

2.Image Quality Problems
Ghosting
A ghost of the image appears at a distance of 314 mm (12.4 in.) to the side of the image.
Cause:
The image transfer current is transmitted to the drum, where a potential difference occurs between a
developed area and non-developed area and causes the image to be reproduced.
This may occur if:
Solid filled images or bold characters are printed in black on a halftone background
Printing is done at low temperature or humidity
Many screening lines are used
Solution:
1. On the Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators menu, select Machine: Image Quality > Adjust
Image Density. Execute Image Density Adjustment: Manual Execute. (SP3-011-002: Manual
ProCon :Ex Density Adjustment)
2. Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Consult the product specialist.
638
2.Image Quality Problems
Cause:
When transporting thick paper that is very stiff, the stiffness of the paper causes the entrance guide
board for the transfer unit to warped toward the ITB. The edge of the entrance guide board comes into
contact with the toner on the belt, thus causing the images to be scratched and the paper edges to be
soiled.
This may occur when:
Paper with a thickness equivalent to Paper Weight 7 is used
Paper with its grain parallel to the paper feed direction is used. For example, when A3/DLT long
grain paper is delivered, or when A4/LT short grain paper is delivered from its long edge, or when
A4/LT long grain paper is delivered from its short edge.
Paper is stored at low temperature or humidity
Solution:
Change the direction of paper grain for paper delivery.
When storing paper at low humidity, wrap the paper in coated paper or a plastic sheet.
Back Sides of Sheets Dirty after a Non Carbon Paper Print Job
After printing a number of sheets of NCR (Non-Carbon) paper, you may find that on the next job using
normal paper, the back sides may be stained and dirty.
Cause

There is toner scattering on parts of a line or characters. This may occur on a line or character that is 8
to 13 mm (0.3 to 0.5 inches) from the trailing edge, and 20 mm (0.8 inches) or less from the left edge
facing the paper feed direction.
643
2.Image Quality Problems
Cause:
Shock jitter occurs when the trailing edge of the paper leaves the paper guide during paper transfer,
causing toner scattering. This may occur when paper with a thickness equivalent to Paper Weight 4 or
higher is used.
To adjust the following settings, register beforehand the type of paper that you are using as a
custom paper.
Changing the transfer current may produce either or both of the following side effects:
1. Reduction in toner yields
2. Occurrence of banding (streaks)
Solution:
1. In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, select Image Transfer Current Setting.
2. Check the present value. Is it lower than 100 uA?
Yes Perform all the following:
(1) Increase the value by 5 uA in Image Transfer Current Setting.

Corr Coef:2nd Custom Paper 100 to 178)
(3) Set Paper Transfer Current; Trail Edge Dist to "30 mm". (SP2-646-100 to 178: Trail
Edge Corr Switch:2nd Custom Paper 100 to 178)
No Consult the product specialist.
3. Print the image. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Repeat Steps 1 to 3. If the problem persists even though you have increased the value to
100 uA, consult the product specialist.
Toner Scatter 4
Cause:
The belt cleaning unit entrance seal in contact with the ITB prevents toner scatter, but toner can still
accumulate on the surface of the belt. Also, toner scatter occurs more easily as the adhesion of toner to
the belt weakens when the belt nears the end of its service life. When printing under these conditions,
the vibration from operation of the drive system can cause more toner scatter when using some types

654
2.Image Quality Problems
Adjust the toner adhesion setting carefully. Raising the toner adhesion setting increases the
amount of toner consumption and reduces toner yield.
Cause:
Smaller size paper has smaller width, therefore more of the roller is exposed. This allows a leakage of
655
2.Image Quality Problems
charge from the transfer electrical field, thus reducing the efficiency of image transfer. This may also
occur when:
Ambient temperature and humidity are low
Paper is extremely thick
Electrical resistance of paper is high
Duplex printing (problem occurs on Side 2).
To adjust the following settings, register beforehand the type of paper that you are using as a
custom paper.
Solution:
Check duplex prints and determine on which side the problem occurs. If the problem occurred on both
sides, make adjustments for Side 1 first, and then for Side 2.
1. In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, check the settings for Paper Transfer Current
Setting: Side 1 (SP2-641-100 to 178: PTR Current:Side1 Custom Paper 100 to 178), or Paper
Transfer Current Setting: Side 2 (2-642-100 to 178: PTR Current:Side2 Custom Paper 100 to 178).
2. Is either or both settings at the upper limit?
Yes Go to Step 6
No Go to the next step.
3. Are the white spots of a degree acceptable for the client?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Go to Step 6.
4. Raise the transfer current setting by 5 points.
5. Print the image. Is the problem resolved?

During low duty use of the machine, air can become mixed with the developer/toner mixture during
agitation and cause rough patches to appear.
Cause:
When the machine is consistently used for low duty printing, air can mix with the developer/toner
mixture during agitation which can cause developer deterioration and cause rough patches to appear
on images. This may occur when:
Every job is 5 pages or less
Pages have less than 4% coverage
To adjust the following settings, register beforehand the type of paper that you are using as a
custom paper.
Solution
1. Replace the developer.
2. Select Advanced Settings > Main: Image Quality Adjustment > Toner Refresh Mode, and then
change the “3” setting to “3.5”. (SP3-820-001 Tnr Refresh Mode Img Area Thresh:K).
3. If the problem persists, consult the product specialist.
If Toner Refresh Mode is set to "3" (default), the amount of toner consumed will be equivalent
to operating the machine under normal conditions at 6% coverage.
Raising the setting higher than "3" could increase the risk of mottled images, higher toner
consumption, and lower toner yield.
If the setting is set to “3.5”, then under normal operating conditions toner consumption will
correspond to about 6.5% total image coverage.

Toner falls from the image transfer belt onto the edge of the print.
Cause:
Toner falls from the ITB cleaning unit onto the paper near the edge. Normally, this does not happen;
however, if parts of the cleaning unit such as the cleaning blade is damaged, toner falls from there onto
the paper. Toner may also have fallen onto the paper transport path, dirtying the paper passing through.

When using a certain type of paper, a group of white spots (in the shape of slanted dotted line) appear
on a black solid fill area or solid patch area, at about 15 mm from the leading edge.
Cause
663
2.Image Quality Problems
When paper with a lot of paper dust enters the nip of the PTR unit, the paper dust adheres to the
entrance guide plate of the PTR unit. From the guide plate, this paper dust is then transferred to the
paper, causing the white spots.
If you are no longer using the paper type in question, install back the original entrance guide
plate of the PTR unit.
Changing the entrance guide plate will shorten the protrusion of the film sheet (mylar) from 8
mm to 4 mm. Due to the stiffness of the paper, its trailing edge comes close to the image
transfer belt; toner on the belt scatters, causing the halftone image area to be darker.
In particular, dust becomes obvious on halftone images with dots, and it is apparent that the

With 2by2 or 4by4 halftone images, the density becomes uneven at the open gaps [A] on the
development unit and [B] on the drum cleaning unit.
Depending on whether the temperature rises or falls, the density of a certain part can become
higher or lower.
Differences in temperature and humidity between the open and closed spaces around the
circumference of the drum can cause fluctuations in the charge potential after exposure.
This problem tends to occur where humidity is low.
Solution
1. Is the absolute humidity above 2.6? (The absolute humidity in the lookup table below is calculated
from the temperature and relative humidity.)
Yes Consult the product specialist.
No Go to the next step.
2. Can the ambient temperature and humidity be adjusted?
Yes Go to the next step.

Shock jitter when paper entered the fusing unit can cause horizontal black lines to appear 270 mm
(10.5”) away from the leading edge of the paper.
Cause:
When paper enters the fusing unit, the shock jitter is transmitted to the PTR unit, causing black lines to
appear about 270 mm (10.5”) from the leading edge of the paper.
This occurs when paper longer than 270 mm is used
The problem occurs from the first sheet of the print job
The problem tends to occur with thick paper

2.Image Quality Problems
Blurred Text
In addition to these problems, backgrounds may appear dirty, or the machine could issue
SC401 if the problem occurs during toner supply control (process control).
Cause
Nitrous oxide generated during drum charging combines with the lubricant powder (zinc stearate) and
absorbs moisture which can adhere to the drum surface. If the machine remains idle for a long period,
this could prevent the drum from charging evenly in the affected areas.
Solution
1. Update the Engine firmware to Ver.1.45:08 or later.
Executing SP2810-001 (Clear Blurred Image) with older engine firmware could cause the
machine to issue SC465.
2. Specify the following settings for SP2810 values to clear blurred text and images:
SP2810-001: 1 (default). This setting will automatically execute and correct the problem every
time.
SP2810-005: 360 (default) change to 120. This setting will automatically execute and correct

Fusing Problems
Insufficient Toner Fusing
This section explains how to resolve the problem of insufficient toner fusing.
To adjust the following settings, register beforehand the type of paper that you are using as a
custom paper.
Changing the fusing temperature or changing the process speed may produce one or more of
the following side effects:
Paper curling
Paper misfeeding
Blisters
Glossy lines
Change of gloss
If one or more of the above side effects occur, adjust by decreasing the fusing temperature or
the process speed.
Solution:
Carry out in the order of (a) followed by (b), stopping when the problem is resolved.
(a) Changing the fusing temperature
1. In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, select Fusing Heat Roller Temperature Adj and
increase the temperature by 5°C.
2. Print the image and check toner fusion. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Increase the temperature an additional 5 °C.
3. Repeat Step 2 until the temperature reaches 185 °C. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Go to the next step.
4. Check the type of your machine. Is it Pro 8300S?
Yes Consult the product specialist.
No Perform Procedure (b) below.
(b): Changing the process speed
This procedure is available only for Pro 8320S/Pro 8320 and Pro 8310S/Pro 8310.
Reducing the speed will slow down printing to give the toner more time to fuse. However, as a result,
throughput will be reduced.
For example, when printing on A4/LT paper:
Pro 8320S/Pro 8320
If the process speed is changed from High to Middle: 136 cpm drops to 111 cpm
If the process speed is changed from Middle to Low: 111 cpm drops to 96 cpm
688
2.Image Quality Problems
This section explains how to give priority to print quality over production when using different types and
thicknesses of paper in the same print jobs.
In order to ensure optimum toner fusing for different paper types and thicknesses, the
operation of the fusing unit can be adjusted for the paper conditions. These settings ensure
productivity when different paper is used continuously, but problems such as glossy lines can
occur when different paper is used in the same job.
There will be occasions when quality must take precedence over productivity, depending on
how the operators are using the machine. In such a case, the Image Quality Priority Mode can
be used.
There is a large difference in the heating roller temperature setting between the front and rear of
the paper area after changing the paper and paper thickness
There is a large difference in the paper width (front-to-back on paper path is the length) after
changing the paper and paper thickness
There is repetition of low volume print jobs
Solution
1. On the Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators menu, select Machine: Quality Adjust >

When changing from thin paper [A] to thick paper [B], insufficient temperature could cause poor fusing
because the fusing temperature [C] was not high enough for thick paper. Also, when changing from

With “Fusing Priority” selected, when the paper brand and area are changed, there is a waiting
time in order to adjust the fusing temperature. Also, in some cases, the warm-up time to
standby temperature for printing to begin may also have the same wait time lag. Reducing the
wait time during troubleshooting execution when using mixed paper sizes may have no effect.
Cause:
After printing a large quantity of large size sheets [A] with rough edges, glossy vertical stripes [A]
appear when printing solid fill on paper that is narrower [B] than the previous job.

Paper Skew
Take the appropriate action according to the cause of the problem.
The side fences in the paper tray are too far apart.
If the side fences are too far apart, the paper may be skewed. Adjust the side fences to match the
paper width.
When you close the paper tray, the side fences may become misaligned due to the weight of the
paper. Close the paper tray slowly.
There is a scrap of paper or some other small fragment jammed in the paper feed path.
1. Execute SP2109-003 Pattern #14, and then print a Trimming Area pattern on both sides of an A3

When printing on envelopes with slanted flaps, a skew may be wrongly detected when the envelopes
are fed with their flaps open.
In such a case, disable the skew detection function.
When using as a custom paper:
In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, set Skew Detection to Off. (1341-03)
When not using as a custom paper:
On the Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators menu, select Machine: Paper Feed/Output, and set
Skew Detection to Off. (SP1-021-001 to 013: Skew Detect Tray <number>
Disabling the skew detection function will allow skewing. If this is not acceptable to the client,
contact the product specialist.
Cause
Measures to correct paper skew at the main machine are not as effective with thick paper (Thickness 5
or thicker) that is fed from the vacuum feed LCIT. This could cause images to be cut off at either end.
Solution
Take the following measures to correct skew in this case.
If only one vacuum feed LCIT is installed, insert a shim behind the docking bracket to correct the
skew.
If there is more than one vacuum feed LCITs, insert a shim behind the connection bracket of the
bridge unit before the vacuum feed LCIT that is skewing.
Each skew correction shim is 1.0 mm thick. Inserting one shim is equivalent to about 0.25 mm/100
mm of correction in paper skew.
The shims for skew correction are provided fastened to the bottom frame of the LCIT behind
the front door.
Skew occurs when using thin paper or paper with short grain.
The skew level is about 1–3 mm/200 mm, and varies.
708
3.Paper Delivery Problems
Cause
Paper skew is corrected by pressing the paper against the rotary gate of the paper transport unit. After
that, the registration gate roller rotates, grips the paper, and feeds it to the transport roller. Feeding is
done by making use of the paper stiffness. Therefore, when stiffness is low, the leading edge of the
paper may not be able to keep up with the rotation of the registration gate roller, and thus results in
paper skew.
Solution
Using SP1-032-001 to -003 (Rotary Gate HP Adjustment) (Thick 0 to 2), adjust the home position of the
rotary gate so that it is nearer to the roller nip.
The default value of is "0". Change the value from "0" to "4" or "3".
Use SP1-004-001 to -003 (Reg Buckle Adj) to adjust the amount of buckle.
When thick paper (Thickness 3 or thicker) is used, the leading edge of the paper may hit the
roller nip before reaching the registration gate. In such a case, the skew correction may not be
effective.
709
3.Paper Delivery Problems
Double Feeding
Take the appropriate action according to the cause of the problem.
Check the paper feed rollers of the A3/A4 LCTs, the multi bypass unit, and the cover interposer
tray.
Paper dust weakens the traction of the paper feed roller, causing paper slipping or insufficient
separation.
Cleaning the paper feed roller to maintain traction and prevent double feeding. (Cleaning the Paper
Feed Path)
Check the paper in the A3/A4 LCTs, the multi bypass unit, and the cover interposer tray.
Double feeding may result if the paper is not ruffled properly.
Remove the paper, ruffle it, and reload it.
Pickup Assist Function may cause double feeding (A3 LCT only)
With the A3 LCT, the Pickup Assist function may cause double feeding of coated paper. You can avoid
double feeding by disabling this function.
When using as a custom paper:
In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, set Pickup Assist Setting to Off. (1321-01)
When not using as a custom paper:
On the Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators menu, select Machine: Paper Feed/ Output, and set
Pickup Assist Setting to Off. (SP 1-923-001 to 007: LCT Pickup Assist ON/OFF A3LCT Tray <number>)
If the notch position adjustment of the paper feed unit where double feeds are occurring is not
set at the default position, you may have to adjust it again. Some types of paper may double-
feed more often than others, requiring adjustment. (For details, refer to "PFU Separation Roller
710
3.Paper Delivery Problems
Nip Adjustment" in Field Service Manual) (Only main unit and A3/A4 LCTs only)
If there is paper dust or foreign particles on the double feed sensor, it may detect double feeding
wrongly.
Clean the double feed sensor.
Disabling double feed detection may reduce print image quality or cause blank sheets to be
delivered.
711
3.Paper Delivery Problems
The side fences in the paper tray are too close together.
If the distance between the side fences is less than the paper width, it may interfere with paper
transfer and so cause paper misfeeds.
Adjust the paper guides to match the paper width.
When you close the paper tray, the side fences may become misaligned due to the weight of the
paper. To prevent this, close the paper tray slowly.
An envelope is used.
Depending on the type of envelope, air trapped inside may be squeezed out when the paper feed roller
picks up the envelope and cause slippage leading to a misfeed.
Is the wide LCT fan disabled?
In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, set Wide LCT Fan Setting to Off.
Have you flattened the envelope?
Flatten the envelope and all its edges to eliminate air before loading. If the envelope is curled, decurl it
712

Paper with a high ash content (calcium carbonate) can cause paper feed jams in the paper feed units of
the main machine and LCIT RT5130 or LCIT RT5110. In the photo below, [A] shows normal paper fibers
and [B] shows paper fibers contaminated by extremely fine calcium carbonate particles.
These particles are extremely small and easily transferred from the paper to roller surfaces. This
causes the roller surfaces to become slick so they no longer have enough friction to grip the paper for
efficient paper feeding.
Signs of this problem are:
Paper fails to feed and starts causing frequent jams at the 50K service life of the rollers
Rollers appear smooth and have not reached the end of service life
Paper dust appears powdery, not grainy
714

Cause
Paper dust adheres to the surfaces of the rollers in the paper feed units of the main machine, the rollers
become smooth, and then slip on the surface of the paper. The paper fails to feed out of the paper tray.

Two rollers are replaced in each paper feed unit of the main machine.
Three rollers are replaced in each paper feed unit of the LCITs.
After installing the EPDM rollers, sliding the reverse roller gear 10 mm toward the front can improve
paper feed.
The service life of each EPDM roller is 300K. This is shorter than the service life of the
urethane rollers (1000K). Replace the standard urethane rollers with the EPDM rollers only if
the customer is experiencing serious paper feed problems.
If no-feed jams start to occur before the EPDM rollers have reached the end of their service life, clean
the rollers.
1. Remove the three rollers (pick-up, feed, and separation roller).
2. Moisten a clean cloth with some water.
3. Slowly wipe the surface of each roller in the direction of the arrows as shown to remove the paper

If the stapled sheets are curled strongly or become limp after delivery, the trailing edge of the sheets
may be too close to the paper exit when the paper is stacked.
If this happens, stapled sheets, when delivered, may push the previously delivered sheet, resulting in
paper bending or misfeeding.
Cause:
This is likely to occur if:
There is a tight curl on a delivered set of stapled sheets.
Limp paper such as thin or recycled paper is used.
778
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
For details about attaching the Z-fold support tray for multi-folding unit, see the user manuals
that come with the machine.
If the Z-fold support tray for multi-folding unit is attached, the trailing edge of the ejected
sheets will not be too close to the paper exit, so no problem will occur. However, the stapled
sheets may not be stacked properly.
Large size long-grain paper of Thickness 1 (52.3 to 63 g/m2) or large size short-grain paper of
Thickness 2 (63.1 to 80 g/m2) may curl when delivered. If the amount of concave curling is large (at
around 15 mm of the maximum acceptable value), the leading edge of the delivered sheet may float
and curl upward.
Once this happens, the subsequent sheets will hit against the curled sheet, causing a jam at the paper
exit (JAM107/109).
Cause
Solution
Correct the curl to the opposite side (convex curling) by using the decurl unit. Doing so decreases the
height of curl to 10 mm or less, and prevents output sheets from floating and bending upward.
In "Adjustment Settings for Operators", specify No. 0310 "Correct Output Paper Curl" and correct the
curl. (SP1-906-001 to 7: De-curler Setting)
779
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
If back curling (convex curling) occurs, the leading edge of the delivered sheet droops. In this case,
because the contact angle between the leading edge of the sheet and tray becomes steep, the
leading edge may bend downward. This is likely to occur if the sheet is ejected with face up.
If face curling (concave curling) occurs and the curl size is large (the height of curl = 15 mm or
more), the leading edge of the sheet may float and bend upward.
* Both convex and concave curling prevent subsequent sheets from stacking properly, resulting in
paper jam (JAM107/109).
Cause
Solution
780
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
2. If the delivered sheets continue to be curled, use the decurl unit to correct the curl to the opposite
side.
* If this is not possible, switch the settings for ejected sheets between face up and face down.
Envelopes with pointed (triangular) flaps are not delivered in the correct order, or fall from the exit tray.
Cause
This happens because the trailing edge (tip of the pointed flap) remains inside the paper exit, and the
envelope is not ejected entirely.
Factor 1: Center part of the flap is remains inside
Paper is delivered to the finisher shift tray by pushing out its trailing edge of paper using the exit roller.
Due to the shape of its flap, when the envelope has finished passing the nip of exit roller, the center part
of the flap is still behind. Therefore, the flap tends to remain inside the paper exit.

4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
When attaching the Z-fold support tray, ask the customer to accept the following:
Alignment accuracy is not assured.
The maximum stack capacity for the finisher shift tray is 30 sheets. Remove output sheets
from the tray every 30 sheets.
Cause
Installing the Z-fold support tray reduces the angle of the tray and helps paper transport. However, as a
side effect, the output jogger is unable to reach the paper surface, causing the horizontal direction of
the paper stack to be poorly aligned.
The width of the Z-fold support tray is 191 mm. When feeding paper of horizontal length of 191 mm or
more, such as A4 LEF, both ends droop from the tray.
Stack accuracy is particularly poor when feeding the side-curled short grain paper in the LEF direction.
783
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
Attaching the Z-fold support tray reduces the angle of the finisher tray, so the distance between the tray
and the leading edge of delivered paper increases. As a result, it takes time for the trailing edge of
delivered paper to fall. When one end of the output jogger touches the delivered paper, the paper stack
slides to the side, and becomes disaligned.
Solution
Attach the support plate, and then use the finisher with the extension tray of the shift tray expanded.
If the support plate is attached, ask the customer to change the value for "Output Jog Position Ang Adj"
from "0deg" to "10deg" (SP6-219-001).

Coated paper is used.
Paper that causes a lot of friction is used.
The temperature or humidity is high.
Sheet Bending
The leading edge of the delivered sheet bends upward and backward.
Because of high paper friction, the delivered sheet may get stuck and push out other sheets of paper.

Corner stapling of some sheets or the last sheet of each bundle is misaligned by approximately 1 mm in
the paper feed direction.
792
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
Cause
The paper slackens due to the difference in level between the trailing edge fence and stapling stacking
fence, causing misalignment.
Solution
Adjust the position of the trailing edge fence using the SP mode.
The factory-set value is on the sticker at the position indicated by the red frame.
793
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
By adjusting the SP value in the positive direction, the staple stacking fence is moved up and toward
the trailing edge fence.
By adjusting the value in the negative direction, the staple stacking fence is moved down and away
from the trailing edge fence.
When two pre-stack sheets are transported simultaneously to the trailing edge fence by the positioning
roller, only the second sheet reaches the trailing edge fence while the first sheet does not, and they are
stapled.
Cause:
This occurs because the friction resistance between the first and second sheets is smaller than that
between the staple tray and the first sheet.
During the first alignment of pre-stack paper in staple mode, the second pre-stack sheet reaches the
trailing edge fence earlier than the first sheet, and the first sheet is shifted to the transport direction.
Solution:
Cancel pre-stack operation in staple mode.

794
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
Cause:
During back-curl correction, the paper is compressed by the nip of the sponge roller [A] above and the
decurl roller [B] below, so the sponger roller can press down to correct the paper curl. If the image on
the paper [C] is facing up when the sponge roller presses down, this can cause toner from the image to
peel off and dirty the anti-static brush, which then transfers this toner to the leading edge of each sheet.
This can occur when:
Decurl unit is connected
Poor stacking, and back-curl correction is done using the decurl unit.
Image on the paper is facing up
Solution:
1. Is it possible to disable back-curl correction?
Yes Disable back-curl correction. Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators > Main: Paper

No Go to Step 3.
3. Remove the anti-static brush. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Consult product specialist.
Removing the anti-static brush can affect the accuracy of stapling alignment. As a result, the

Poor Folding
Cause:
Depending on paper hardness, inaccurate folds may result. This is referred to as folding deviation.
Solution:
Change the folding position by adjusting the position of the paper edge stopper for folding.
For multi-sheet folding, change the folding position using the following settings:
Half Fold Position (Multi-sheet Fold) (SP 6-752-101 to 119: FM2 Equal 1/2:FineAdjFld(D615) (size)

Folding Deviation
Cause:
Depending on paper hardness, folding deviations (skewed folding) may appear.
A deviation may appear if the edge dimensions of the parts between folds are different.
For example, in the following illustration, the dimensional difference between the top (L2[2]) and
bottom (L2[1]) edges is a deviation.

How to adjust the folding deviation
This procedure is the same for L1, L2, and L3.
1. Open the front cover of the multi-folding unit.
2. Remove the mounting screw.
If the mounting screw is attached to the adjusting screw hole, unfasten it.
3. Turn the adjusting screw to adjust the deviation.
To increase the length at the bottom part of paper, turn the screw clockwise.
To decrease the length at the bottom part of paper, turn the screw counterclockwise.
For multi-sheet folding, the folding deviation that appears in the center of paper will be
adjusted.
If the deviation is large, the paper may be skewed. (Paper Skew)
801
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
Cause:
If multi-sheet folding is performed after a large number of Z-folds have been performed, the tip of the
blade used for the multi-sheet folding may be dirty, resulting in dirt on the paper.
This will produce dirt on the paper in an area of 1-3 cm (0.4-1.2 inches) in width (equal to the width of
the blade) in the fold in the center of paper.
Solution:
Clean the blade.
1. Open the front cover of the multi-folding unit.
2. Pull the multi-folding unit out.
802
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
4. Wipe the tip and top of the blade with a soft dry cloth.
When letter folding is applied, the edge of the inner flap may become bent.
Solution:
The solution depends on whether letter folding is applied to multiple sheets or a single sheet.
803
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
The delivered paper has an upward curl with a arc of 4 cm (1.6”) or less at the leading edge.
Solution:
1. Is the decurl unit installed?
804
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
This folding error will not occur if uncurled paper is used or sheets that curl downward.
Cause:
If a large number of half-folded multi-sheets is delivered, the edges of the sheets may bulge and some
part of the edge will be swollen. If this happens, other sheets loaded on the bulged paper may turn over
in the output tray. This is likely to occur if thick, relatively stiff paper is used.
As a bundle is delivered, its folded edge may droop and catch on the stacked bundles, causing the
delivered bundle to flip over.
Solution:
Use the Z-fold support tray for multi-folding unit. This will reduce the angle of stacked bundles and
prevent bundles flipping over as they are delivered.
805
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
For details about attaching the Z-fold support tray for multi-folding unit, see "Copy/Document Server"
supplied with the machine.
If the Z-fold support tray for the multi-folding unit is attached, folded paper such as letter-folded
paper or gate-folded paper will not turn over in the output tray when delivered.
When the folded paper is transported to the fold crease unit, the leading edge (creased edge) enters
the fold nip prepared level for the press guide, and then is pressed by the on the paper transport guide.
The press guide has three press rollers [A]. The friction between the press guide and press guide plate
as the paper is fed can scratch or mark the matte finish of the paper.
The surface of the guide plate is rough and can cause marks on the surface of the paper. The
surface of the plate becomes smoother after about 2,000 sheets have feed through the folding
unit and these marks disappear.
The surface of gloss coated paper is much smoother, so these marks do not appear on glossy

The surface of Normal paper is untreated, so these marks do not appear with Normal paper.
Solution:
1. Open the guide plate and clean the metal plate at [A] with an alcohol dampened cloth.
2. Print and fold a sample. Is the problem resolved?
Yes Finished!
No Go to the next step.
3. Take a piece of paper and gently rub the surface of the metal plate to smooth it, and then do

Yes Finished!
No Repeat Steps 1 and 2. If the problem persists, consult the product specialist.
Cleaning the surface of the metal guide plate and buffing it with a piece of paper reduces the
occurrence of marks on the paper.
The present condition of the guide plate at the affected area depends on the amount of usage
of the folding unit, but buffing the surface of the plate with paper 20 to 50 times should reduce
friction during paper feed.
After buffing it with paper, always clean the surface of the plate with a clean cloth dampened
with alcohol to remove tiny bits of paper that could adhere to the plate after buffing.

Stack Remains Up
Cause:
The paper stack remains up after the tray has been opened because the pressure of the spring [A] on
the skew correction plate is stuck between the side fence, so that the stack [B] remains up even after
the plate is lowered from under it.
This problem occurs only when the tray is opened. This does not occur during paper feed because the
bottom plate does not operate.
Solution:
Caution the operator to check the top of the stack when the tray is opened.
If paper remains up, remove the stack and load it in the tray again.
Attaching the Small Tab Sheet Holder (Thick Paper with Narrow Width)
When B5 SEF to SRA4 size paper of Paper Weight 8 is fed from the last portion of the paper stack, the
airflow decreases, resulting in paper misfeed.
Cause
When the paper is fed from the last portion of the paper stack, the bottom plate partially blocks the air
nozzle and the airflow becomes smaller. As the amount of air is not sufficient to lift the paper,
misfeeding occurs.
This tends to occur when A4/Letter size paper is fed, because only 2 float air nozzles are used, and the
amount and speed of airflow is weaker.

4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
Cause:
Curled sheets can cause strong friction at their leading edges. This may result in paper misfeeds.
Sheets will not be ejected completely and the trailing edges will be left inside the paper exit. If this
happens, other sheets may slip under the delivered sheets, causing the delivered sheets to be curled.

Cause:
When sheets are delivered to the stacker tray, because of paper-to-paper friction, the paddle fails to pull
the trailing edge back into the front guide, resulting in misalignment. The paper edge stopper also fails
to push back the protruding leading edge. This is likely to occur if Thick (280 g/m2 [105 lb. Cover] or
heavier), uncurled A3 or larger paper is used.
Here is a detailed description of how this problem can occur.

Cause
Despite the air assist system, when sheets (particularly paper that is relatively soft and has strong
transport resistance, such as thin or coated paper) are delivered to the stacker tray, because of paper-
to-paper friction, the paddle fails to pull the trailing edge back into the front guide, resulting in
misalignment.
The paper edge stopper also fails to push back the protruding leading edge.

Registration Adjustment
Disconnect the stacker from the upstream unit and do this adjustment on the left side of the
upstream unit connected to the main unit. To avoid damaging the cart set switch, be sure to
remove the Roll-away cart from inside the stacker when you disconnect the upstream unit.
If a Booklet (or Stapler) finisher is connected downstream, paper cannot be output to the proof
tray of the stacker. With a downstream finisher connected, do the adjustment after
disconnecting the I/F cable of the finisher and then turning the main machine on.
1. Load some A3 or 11”x17” paper in the 2nd tray of the main unit, and then output several sheets of
single-side printing to the proof tray of the stacker.
2. Watch the edge of each sheet as it exits the unit.
If the edge is within the first notch (2 mm) on the scale, there is no problem.
If the edge goes beyond the first notch, adjustment is required.

skew is still beyond the first notch, do the procedure again and insert another spacer if required.
6. If no further adjustment is required, re-attach the right front cover of the stacker, and then connect
the stacker to the upstream unit.
Cause:
When paper that is about as wide as the paper height sensor feeler is discharged to the shift tray, if it
has side face curl, the edge of the paper may fail to go under the paper height sensor feeler and ride up
on the feeler. Alternatively, by coming in contact with the paper height sensor feeler, it may ride up and
press against the feeler and the load from this may hinder the movement of the feeler. In this case,
even if the shift tray moves down, the paper height sensor feeler fails to turn the sensor OFF, and the
lowering time of the shift tray ends up exceeding 650 ms, and the unit ends up sensing it is full.
This is likely to occur if paper of a certain width is output to the shift tray, the unit may detect being full
prematurely. (Paper between roughly 191 mm to 261 mm wide)

4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
Pressure from the paper holder [A] on the cart may leave marks where the holder pressed down [B].
Cause:
The paper holder exerts more pressure than the previous model of cart, which creates the potential for
leaving marks on the stack of paper when it is holding it. The top pages of the stack are prone to having
marks left.
Solution:
Marks can be prevented by putting scrap paper in between [A].
839
4.Troubleshooting for Peripheral Units
There have been cases of screws [A] to the handle of the cart loosening.
Cause:
The torque on the mounting bolt of the handle on the bottom of the cart is too low, so when the cart is
loaded with paper and it is pushed/pulled repeatedly, the mounting bolt may get loose. This is likely to
occur if the torque on the mounting bolt of the handle is less than 18Nm.
Solution:
If the cart's handle starts to rattle, or if the paper holder fails to be effective because of loosening, re-
tighten the mounting bolt on the bottom of the handle.
Also, if the locking screws on the side of the handle get loose, re-tighten them.

Symptom
As paper is fed through the cover interposer tray, paper dust accumulates; this paper dust rubs against
the paper causing thin lines (scratches) along the paper feed direction to appear. Such scratches tend
to occur when printing solid fill images. If the scratches rank less than 4.5 on the scale for measuring
paper transport defects, clean the guide boards.

Improving Throughput
Reducing Wait Time before Printing
After receiving a print job, the machine usually stops to let the fusing temperature reach an appropriate
level for printing.
The waiting time for the fusing unit to cool down may be quite long, especially before printing on thin
paper.
By decreasing or increasing the standby fusing temperature for the type of paper in use, you can
reduce the waiting time.
1. On the Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators menu, select Machine: Image Quality > Adjust
Fusing Temperature on Standby >
Decrease temperature by 10°C for thin paper
Increase temperature by 10°C for thick paper.
2. Decrease by 10°C the values for Temperature on Standby Mode, Temperature on Low Power
Mode, and Temperature Before Performing a Process.
SP 1-107-001: Standby Target Temp. Setting Standby: Center
SP 1-107-005: Standby Target Temp. Setting Low Power: Center
SP 1-107-007: Standby Target Temp. Setting Print Ready: Center
When printing on paper other than thin paper, we recommend leaving the above settings
unchanged
This procedure describes measures for printing on coated paper equivalent to Paper Weight 7 or
higher.
When printing on coated paper with a thickness equivalent to Paper Weight 7 or higher, the machine's
copy/print speed must be reduced to 80% of full speed (for A4 paper) to ensure toner fixation.
However, depending on the type of paper in use and printed image, you can have the machine print at
full copy/print speed.
The requirements for improving throughput when using coated paper with a thickness equivalent to
Paper Weight 7 or higher are described below.
1. In Advanced Settings for the custom paper in use, increase the value in Process Speed Setting by
one step.
If it is presently set to Low, change it to Middle.
If it is presently set to Middle, change it to High.
846
5.Other Information
When using mixed paper, the fusing unit settings can switch to accommodate the different types and
sizes of paper, and this affects the wait time, which can lower productivity. However, depending on how
the client is using the machine, there are occasions when it is best for the client to operate the machine
even when fusing conditions are not exactly ideal. This procedure describes how to check whether the
wait time during jobs with mixed paper can be reduced.
There are three cases when wait time can occur:
Case 1. For brand name paper where there is a large difference in the heating roller temperature
settings for differences in paper thickness from the previous type of paper used.
Case 2. For brand name paper where there is a large difference in the heating roller temperature
for differences in paper thickness and width (front-to-rear across the paper path is the width).
Case 3. Repeated low volume print jobs.
This procedure describes how to reduce the wait time for Case 1 above.
Solution:
1. Are the heating roller temperature settings different for the intervals between different types of
paper?
Yes Go to Step 2.
No No solution for this machine.
2. Raise the setting for low heating roller temperature paper by +5C. (Upper limit: This is the same as
the as the temperature for high temperature paper.)
3. Do a sample print. Did this reduce the wait time?
Yes Go to Step 4.
No Repeat Step 2.
847
5.Other Information
4. Can you get permission from the client to reduce efficiency of paper feed?
This step could possibly cause paper curl, jams, or wrinkling with low fusing temperature
paper.
Yes Go to Step 5.
No No solution for this machine.
5. Can you get permission from the client to reduce image quality?
This step could possibly cause paper curl, jams, or wrinkling with low fusing temperature
paper.
Yes Finished.
No No solution for this machine.
Never reduce the heating roller temperature for high fusing temperature paper. Doing so could
cause poor fusing and foul the parts inside the machine with toner.
When printing with mixed paper sizes, the increase in the time required for the machine to adjust the
fusing unit settings suitable for all the different sized paper can on occasion reduce productivity. Follow
this procedure to determine the minimum wait time while achieving optimal fusing conditions for the
client's needs when using mixed paper sizes.
The wait time may increase in the following cases:
1. When there is a large difference in the heating roller temperature settings for differences in paper
types and paper thicknesses.
2. When there is a large difference in the heating roller temperature settings for differences in paper
types and paper widths (where width is in the direction across the paper path, front to rear of the
machine)
3. When there is a large number of rapidly repeated small jobs.
Doing this procedure can reduce the wait time for Case 1 above. The setting can be adjusted with 0212
in the Trained Operator Mode.
848
5.Other Information
The new heat pipe mechanism inside the heating roller is designed to stabilize the temperature of the
heating roller, but it can also cause an increase in the length of time for the machine to recover from low
power mode. In the Trained Operator Mode, use item 0207 on the menu to adjust the fusing ready
temperature in order to shorten recovery time. This adjustment can also be done with SP1-107-005
Target Temperature Setting - Low Power: Center.

5.Other Information
Adjustment of this setting can slightly increase the power consumption of the main machine.

5.Other Information
When specific paper jams (J049, J050, J080, and J099) occur, the jammed paper is retracted to the
purge section at the lower left of the machine and printing will continue.
(There are some conditions like paper size, paper type, and paper thickness.)
After the printing job has been completed, the machine prompts the user to remove the retracted paper.
Confidential documents or other printings that the user wants to hide from other persons may
be left in the purge section. To prevent this, the machine can be configured to prompt the user
to remove the paper immediately after they are retracted to the purge section.
The machine can also be configured to continue printing without prompting the user to remove the
paper even after the print job is completed.
1. Select "Behavior After Paper Diversion" from [Main Unit: Paper Feed/ Output] group in the
Adjustment Settings for Operators, and then confirm the current settings. (SP mode: SP1-051-001
Behavior After Paper Diversion)
2. Change the settings:
To prompt the user to remove jammed paper immediately it is retracted: "Suspend"
To continue printing after the printing job is finished: "Continue Unless Paper Diversion Box
Full"
To prompt the user to remove jammed paper when the print job is completed: "Continue Until
All Jobs In Queue Complete"
When the purge section becomes full, the machine suspends printing and prompts the user to
remove the paper, regardless of whether the print job has been completed or not.

ITB Centering: SC471-03, -04, -05, -06 (ITB Position Errors)
Cause:
The machine issues the following SC codes when the machine ITB steering control mechanism cannot
correct the position of the ITB to compensate for the belt shifting out of position during operation:
SC471-03 ITB position error 1
SC471-04: ITB position error 2
SC471-05: ITB position error 3
SC471-06: Belt centering sensor error
Solution:
The value of SP 2-920-002 (Steering Control Roller Stable Position of Steering Roller) displays the
target setting (-20 ≤ SP Value ≤ +20) for the optimum position of the ITB that is used to reset the ITB to
its optimum position with steering control after the lubricant application mode has been executed so
that the ITB is positioned correctly for stable operation.
The current setting of SP2-920-002 and the setting of the steering plate during operation and
before and after adjustment for any operation where lubricant was applied are recorded.
If the optimum position of the belt cannot be recovered, then that value of the setting should be
passed to the product specialist in order to solve future problems.
SP2-920-002 (Steering Control Roller Stable Position of Steering Roller) displays the number
of steps used in operation of the steering control motor that diagonally adjusts the position of
the steering control roller to keep the belt at the initial position. The target setting for this SP
code is "0". If the displayed setting is within range [-20 ≤ SP ≤ +20], the position can be
controlled within ±2 mm.
This troubleshooting procedure is not required if the ITB has been replaced after the service
life of the ITB has expired and no ITB-related SC code has been issued.
This procedure is the same as that done for setting the machine in the lubrication application mode
after the ITB has been replaced.
1. Remove the drum cleaning unit.
2. Remove the PTR unit.
3. On the front of the ITB unit, turn both blade levers clockwise.
4. Remove the ITB unit.

intervals, confirm that the position of the belt is stable, and then adjust the belt to the
positions of the left and right scale plates.
Depending on the conditions of the machine, after application of the lubricant ends the
belt may not be adjusted to its correct position within the target range within 100 sec. This
can occur if the belt has been re-installed out of position. In this case after the SP
executes lubricant application for 10 sec. and stops, the machine is not able to do the
correction quickly enough, so beforehand the belt ready SP2-920-013 timeout setting is
set to 105 sec. If the machine cannot correct the belt position within 105 sec. the machine
issues SC471-01 (Belt Position Ready Timeout), and SP2-310-002 (applying the
lubricant) stops, and then starts the process again after the belt has been steered to the
correct position.

9. After doing the 4th execution of SP2-310-001, do one of the following, using the value of the setting
for SP2-920-002 (Steering Control Roller Stable Position of Steering Roller).
If SP value <-20 or +20<SP value: Check the ITB unit, and then reset the ITB belt unit, and
then repeat lubricant application in Step 4.
If -20 ≤ SP Value ≤ +20: Reset the following SP codes to their default settings:
For SP2-310-002 change the "100" setting to "300" to restore the default.
For SP2-920-013 change the "105" setting to "400" to restore the default.
Next, do Steps 10 and 11. If you did not do the adjustment for the right control plate, skip
Steps 10 and 11, and then go to Step 12.
10. Open the controller box. (Field Service Manual > Replacement and Adjustment > Common

5.Other Information
This step is required the correct the positions of these screws [A] and [B] because adjustment
of the right steering plate can cause these screws to slip out of position between the ITB unit
and the ITB/PTR motor.
Do this procedures if the results of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd executions of SP2-920-002 were SP Value<-20
or +20<SP Value. There are two plates, a left steering plate and a right steering plate. The right steering
plate should be adjusted first, and then the left steering plate.
The range of adjustment for the right steering plate [A] is ±1 on its notched scale.
The range of adjustment for the left steering plate [B] is ±6 on its notched scale.
Adjustment of the SP code may have no effect if the right plate has been previously adjusted.
For example, if the right steering plate has already been adjusted to +1 on its scale, this
corresponds to a +30 setting of the SP code and further adjustment will have no effect.
However, if the right steering plate has been adjusted to "-1" or "+1" before leaving the factory,
855
5.Other Information
the right steering plate should not be adjusted. Leave the right steering plate at its factory
setting, and adjust the left steering plate.
Right Steering Plate Adjustment
1. Execute application of lubricant with SP2-310-001, and then do SP2-920-002 (Steering Control

This section describes how to manage SC401, toner scatter, and dirty background. Conditions that
increase the risk of these problems include:
Allowing the machine to remain idle for long periods where the humidity is high.
Where average coverage is consistently 4% or lower.
20 P/J or lower average P/J
Causes
1. Process control fails. The development gamma detected in process control was lower than 3.0
because the ID sensor pattern created on the drum was blurred. (Blurred Images (Convex Lens
Shaped))
2. Due to the degradation of toner over time, and the adhesion of toner on the doctor blade, the
amount of developer supplied to the development roller decreased and development gamma
becomes fell lower than 3.0.
In addition to SC401, toner scatter and dirty background could also occur because the system
supplies too much toner to compensate for reduced development gamma.
Solution
Do these procedures if the machine is issuing SC401, or if you observe toner scatter or dirty
backgrounds in prints.
1. Open SP2109-003, select Patter #12 (2-dot Independent Pattern), and then print three copies of
the pattern on A3/DLT.
2. Does the pattern appear blurred?
Yes Do the following SP settings:
SP2810-001: 1 (default). This setting will automatically execute "Clear Blurred Image"
at all times.
SP2810-005: 360 (default). Set to "120". This setting will automatically execute "Clear
Blurred Image" if the machine remains idle for 2hrs.
SP2810-006: 13 (default). Set to "7". This setting will automatically execute "Clear
blurred image" even when the machine is operated in a medium temperature, medium
RH environment.
Do SP2810-004 (Clear blurred image).
Go to Step 3.
868
5.Other Information
No Go to Step 4
3. Has the blurred image problem been resolved?
Yes Go to Step 4
No Repeat SP2810-004 (Clear Blurred Image)
If the blurred images cannot be corrected after executing this SP code three times, replace
the drum, and then go to Step 4.
4. Clean the doctor blade, development roller, potential sensor and ID sensor. Refer to the Field
Service Manual for the cleaning procedures.
When cleaning the doctor blade:
Doctor blade cleaning is different for this machine. Refer to the doctor blade cleaning
instructions in the Field Service Manual.
Be sure to use the special tool (shown below) to rotate the development roller during servicing.
Before cleaning the doctor gap, confirm that there is no old developer on the development
roller as shown below.
After cleaning the doctor gap with the cleaning tool use a vacuum cleaner to completely
remove any toner particles.
5. Calculate the average coverage and average P/J.
Average coverage = SP8921-001 / SP8581-001
Average P/J = SP8581-001 / Sum of SP8071-001to014
Either or both of the following conditions met?
Average coverage ≤ 4 (%)
Average P/J ≤ 20
Yes Change the setting of SP3-820-001 (Tnr Refresh Mode: Img Area Thresh: K) setting
from "2" (default) to "3".
No Do SP3-011-002 (Density Adjustment) for process control.
869
5.Other Information
6. Make 20 copies of the same test pattern. Has the problem been resolved?
Yes Finished.
No Replace the developer. If replacing the developer does not resolve the problem, replace
the development unit.
Cause
The tray lock lever needs adjustment because it does not reach the registration adjustment plate.
Solution
Follow this procedure to shift the registration adjustment plate to the front so the tray lock lever can
reach the registration adjustment plate.
1. Pull out Tray 1 completely so that the right and left tandem trays separate.
3. On the registration adjustment plate, loosen screw [A], remove screw [B], and then and fasten it at
870
5.Other Information
4. While looking at the scale, pull the registration adjustment plate approximately 3 mm to the front.
5. Remove the screw that you moved in Step 3, and then fasten at its original position ( x1).
A jammed feeler can cause the machine to issue a false drum lubricant near-end alert.
Cause
The feeler that detects lubricant near-end is stuck and caused the system to constantly issue a false
871
5.Other Information
drum lubricant near-end alert. This can be caused by removing the drum lubricant components in the
incorrect order. Removing the brush roller before the lubricant bar can cause the lubricant bar to pop up
and lock the feeler.
Solution
1. Confirm that the setting of SP3-810-021 is not “0: Normal” (because the system is notifying a near-
end status).
2. Remove the lubricant blade with the bracket attached and the two lubricant near-end sensors.
3. Place the bracket bottom-side-up on a table and check if the feeler is visible [A]. The feeler is not
visible [B] if it is stuck out of position.
4. Reassemble the unit and confirm that the setting of SP3-810-021 is “0”. If the value is “1” or “2”,
repeat step 2.
Clear PM Counters
1. Turn the machine off.
2. Open the front doors.
3. Turn the machine on with the front doors open.
4. Enter the SP mode, open SP4622-008, and then reset the counter for the lubricant bar.
5. Close the front doors. This resets the counter.
6. Open SP3810-021 and confirm that the value is ”0”.
7. Exit the SP mode.
Always remove the drum lubricant components in the correct order, as described in the Field
Service Manual: 1) Lubricant blade, 2) Lubricant bar, 3) Brush roller.
872
5.Other Information
After prolonged use, the transport rollers and ribs of the guide plates that guide paper in the paper
transport path become contaminated with paper dust and loose toner which can cause streaks or roller
“footprints” to appear on paper, or on edges of stacked paper.
Some simple cleaning procedures can eliminate these problems.
This section provides paper transport maps that will help you easily identify the transport rollers and
transport guide plate ribs that may require cleaning to eliminate these problems.
Paper transport maps are provided for the main machine, LCT A3, and the finisher.
The transport rollers and ribs described in this section are the ones in the paper transport path that
can be accessed easily for paper jam removal.
When streaks or roller footprints appear:
1. Take one sheet that is marked by streaks, and then fold it carefully exactly in half with the crease in
the center and parallel to the direction of paper feed.
2. Lay the sheet on a flat surface, and then used a mm scale to measure from the fold line to the
marks on the surface or edges of the paper.
3. Compare the measurements with the maps to identify the transport rollers/ribs that are causing the
problem, and then clean them. For more details about how to clean the rollers and transport path,
see the Field Service Manual > PM Parts List.
All of the measurements given in the line drawings are given in millimeters.
The measurements are the “target” measurements of the design drawings. There may be very
slight differences between these design measurements and actual measurements due to
minute variations in machine manufacture, component manufacture, and component wear.
Therefore, the actual measurements taken from the folding paper may not exactly match the
location of transport roller or rib.
