1-8 Service Manual Most paper jams can be avoided by correctly loading paper and specialty media in the printer. The following hints can help prevent paper jams: • Use only the recommended print media. • Do not overload the print media sources. Make sure the stack height does not exceed the maximum height indicated by the stack line on the labels in the sources. • Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or curled print media. • Flex, fan, and straighten print media before loading it. If jams do occur with the print media,then try feeding one sheet at a time through the manual feeder. • Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same print media source. • Push all trays in firmly after loading them. Note: Make sure the media stack is below the maximum media fill indicators on the 250-sheet tray before pushing the tray into the printer. • Make sure paper guides are positioned before loading the paper or specialty media. • Do not remove trays while a job is printing. • Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together. • Do not use envelopes that: – Have excessive curl – Are stuck together – Are damaged in any way – Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossments – Have metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars – Have postage stamps attached – Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed position printing environment. Tools The removal and adjustment procedures require the following tools and equipment: • Spring hook • Needle nose pliers • Volt-ohmmeter • #1 and #2 Phillips screwdriver • Slotted screwdriver • Use only recommended media. Refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the Dell Web site at www.dell.com for more information about which media provides optimum results for the current

Error Description Action 200.00 Paper jam around input sensor. Remove the PC kit and paper or debris at the input sensor. 200.01 Classic input jam. The media is too long over the input sensor. Possible causes include multi-sheet feed, tray size sensing problem, and media slippage. First, remove the PC kit and paper or debric at the input sensor. Then, inspect the flag on the input sensor. It should rotate freely. Replace the sensor if necessary. Finally, check the paper size settings in the printer and the driver. 200.02 The main input sensor never became uncovered from the sheet ahead. 200.03 The video never started on the page at the input sensor within two inches after hitting the input sensor Check the printhead. See “Printhead service check” on page 2-38. 200.04 The media at the input sensor before interrupt occurred–not enough time elapsed since the printhead started to expect the printhead mirror motor lock. Possible causes include bouncy sensor or exceptionally fast pick– perhaps due to media pre- staged in the source tray. Carefully remove the tray and notice if the leading edge of the media is pointed upward and out of the tray. If so, then inspect the tray wear strips and replace if necessary. Inspect the input sensor flag and replace it if it does not rotate freely or is too loose. 200.06 Imaged page not expected page (bouncy passthru sensor) Remove the toner cartridge/PC kit. At the front, remove the upper front guide, and inspect the flag on the manual input sensor. If the flag is loose, then replace it. See “Media manual input sensor removal” on page 4-42. 200.08 Media reached the input sensor before the EP was ready Inspect the tray for prestaging. Verify the proper media and inspect the tray wear strips. Replace the wear strips if necessary. Error Description Action
2-10 Service Manual 200.09 Transfer servo never started Inspect the LVPS/HVPS. See “Controller board service check” on page 2-23. 200.12 Media detected at manual feeder sensor when not expected. Possible causes include user insert of media when motor is running or pre-staged media in the tray. Carefully remove the tray and notice if the leading edge of the media is pointed upward and out of the tray. If so, then inspect the tray wear strips and replace if necessary. Inspect the input sensor flag and replace it if it does not rotate freely or is too loose. 200.13 The input sensor is covered when the media is not expected (media in machine during warm-up) Remove the toner cartridge/PC kit and inspect the input sensor flag. Replace the flag if necessary. 200.14 Trailing edge cleared manual feed, but did not successfully debounce the sensor. Potential causes are a small gap or a bouncy manual feed sensor. Remove the toner cartridge/PC kit. At the front, remove the upper front guide, and inspect the flag on the manual input sensor. If the flag is loose, then replace it. See “Media manual input sensor removal” on page 4-42. 200.15 UNRECOVERABLE NO GAP JAM. Engine detected no gap at the manual feeder sensor, attempted to open the gap by stopping the feed rolls, but no trailing edge was ever seen at the input sensor. Remove the toner cartridge/PC kit. At the front, remove the upper front guide, and inspect the flag on the manual input sensor. If the flag is loose, then replace it. See “Media manual input sensor removal” on page 4-42. Verify that the media is approved. Inspect the wear strips in the input tray, and replace if necessary. 200.16 Transport motor error detected Inspect the main motor. See “Main motor service check” on page 2-27. 200.17 Took too long to ramp up transport motor 200.18 Manual feeder sensor never became uncovered from the sheet ahead. Remove the toner cartridge/PC kit. At the front, remove the upper front guide, and inspect the flag on the manual input sensor. If the flag is loose, then replace it. See “Media manual input sensor removal” on page 4-42. 200.19 The media never reached the input sensor, but was detected at manual feeder sensor. Remove the toner cartridge/PC kit, and inspect for debris in the paper path. Check the bottom of the PC kit for any obstructions. Remove the upper front guide, and inspect the pinch rollers. 200.20 The media is too long over the manual feeder sensor. Possible causes include multi-sheet feed, media size (length) problem, pre-staged media in the tray. Verify that the media is approved. Inspect the wear strips in the tray, and replace if they are worn. 200.22 FAILED SMALL GAP OR NO GAP JAM RECOVERY. Engine detected small gap or no gap at the manual feeder sensor, opened the gap by stopping the feed rolls, but never saw the leading edge of the second page at the input sensor. 200.23 Laser Servo never started due to potential conflict with the transfer servo. Possible causes: slow or missing transport motor positional feedback, or the media is transferred too quickly to the input sensor. Verify that the media is approved. Inspect the wear strips in the tray, and replace if they are worn. Check the main motor. See “Main motor service check” on page 2-27. Error Description Action
Diagnostics information 2-11 200.24 The measured gap at the input sensor is too small to meet the video delivery requirements. (There is not enough time since prior image finished to start new image) Verify that the media is approved. Inspect the wear strips in the tray, and replace if they are worn. 200.26 The trailing edge never cleared the input sensor when feeding out the media that was detected during warm- up. 200.27 Printhead Driver: Mirror motor fell out of lock condition after the media at the input sensor–more time elapsed since the printhead than the expected stable lock time, but less than the printhead jitter-stable specification. Check the printhead. See “Printhead service check” on page 2-38. Mirror motor fell out of lock condition after media at the input sensor–more time elapsed since the printhead than expected stable lock time, but less than the printhead jitter-stable specification. 200.28 First writing line of a page at the developer nip, but laser servo cleanup is not complete. Likely pre staged media or a fast paper feed. Verify that the media is approved. Inspect the wear strips in the tray, and replace if they are worn. 200.29 Printhead drive control out of range due to an external event beyond what the control is designed to handle. Probable causes: ESD or noise on hsync signal. Check the cable routing for the printhead. See “Printhead service check” on page 2-38. 200.30 Narrow media sensor covered during warm-up. Check that the narrow media flag rotates freely and securely. If it is dislodged or broken, then repalce the rear exit guide. See “Rear exit guide assembly with sensor and reversing solenoid removal” on page 4-56. 200.32 Media more than 14 inches too long over the manual feeder sensor. Possible causes include multi-sheet feed or pre-staged media in the tray. Verify that the media is approved. Inspect the wear strips in the tray, and replace if they are worn. 200.33 Page from tray 1 did not reach the input sensor after multiple attempts. Page did make it out of the tray at least as far as the manual feeder sensor. Possible cause is that the page stalled at the alignment gate. Verify that the pick tires are clean, not worn, or filled with paper dust. Replace the pick tires if necessary. See “ACM pick tire roller removal” on page 4-3. The alignment roller may be binding. Call the next level of support. 200.34 Timed out waiting for page from tray 1 to reach the input sensor after multiple pick attempts, but the page was later detected at the input sensor while waiting for any page(s) ahead to clear the paper path. Possible cause is that the page is delayed at the alignment gate. 200.35 Failed to create hsync during auto alignment Check the printhead. See “Printhead service check” on page 2-38. 200.36 Lost hsyncs during auto alignment 200.37 Timeout on data collection during auto alignment 200.38 Interpage servo gap is smaller than expected for printhead offset target evaluation 200.42 Rogue sheet is at the manual feed sensor while flushing the paper path prior to declaring MPF source empty. Retry alignment. 200.43 The media is at the input sensor before interruption occurs. Possible causes include bouncy sensor or an exceptionally small gap, perhaps due to the media being pre-staged in the source tray. Remove the media, realign the stock, and re-insert. Do not let the top sheets to go beyond the wear strips. Error Description Action

Diagnostics information 2-23 Service checks Service checks which involve measuring voltages on the LVPS/HVPS (low voltage power supply/ high voltage power supply board) should be performed with the printer positioned on its back side. Note: When making voltage readings, always use frame ground unless another ground is specified. See the wiring diagram in the back of the book for more information. Controller board service check Controller board service check FRU Action Controller board assembly Warning: Do not replace the operator panel and controller board at the same time. Each card contains the printer settings. When either of these cards is new, it obtains some of the settings from the other card. Settings are lost when both are new and replaced at the same time. POST (Power-On Self Test) Note: The printer should complete POST in approximately 30 seconds. If the printer fails to display lights or activate the drive motor, fuser, or fan, then check the following order: 1. Power to the LVPS/HVPS 2. Power from the LVPS/HVPS to the controller board 3. Cables are plugged in correctly, especially for the operator panel. The printer will not power-up without a functioning operator panel. 4. The controller board assembly. The LED adjacent to J12 will be illuminated if the card is powered and good. 5. The operator panel. See “Operator panel service check” on page 2-28. Verify +24 V dc input from the LVPS/HVPS. 1. Turn the printer off. 2. Disconnect the LVPS/HVPS cable from the controller board at J502. 3. Turn the printer on. 4. Verify +24 V dc on positions 6, 17, and 19 of the cable connector (LVPS/HVPS). 5. If voltage is correct, then check the continuity in the other conductors of the cable. If the cable is good, then turn the printer off, and check the connectors to the controller board. 6. Verify that pins 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 on both the cable and the card connector are grounded. 7. If grounds are not correct on the cable, but the cable passes continuity otherwise, then check the LVPS/HVPS. 8. If the grounds are not correct on the controller board, then replace the controller board. (Check with one probe on the connector pin and the other on the card’s ground plane found at each screw head.) Controller board voltage outputs Turn the printer off, and plug the LVPS/HVPS cable into J502 of the controller board. See the wiring diagram at the end of the manual which identifies the output voltages and grounds for a good controller board. Turn the printer off before plugging or unplugging any connectors.
2-24 Service Manual Cooling fan service check Cover interlock switch service check Note: Make sure a print cartridge assembly is installed and the cover closes all the way, engaging the cover open switch lever. LVPS/HVPS Verify main power to controller board With the printer off, unplug the LPS/HVPS cable at J502 on the controller board. Verify grounds on pins 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18 for both the cable and the controller board. If any of these grounds are incorrect, then check the cable for continuity. If the cable fails continuity, then call the next level of support. Turn the printer on with the cable still unplugged, and verify the following on the cable (controller board will not be powered): If any of the voltages are incorrect, then replace the LVPS/HVPS. See “Dead machine service check” on page 2-25. FRU Action Cooling fan Make sure the fan cable plug is properly seated at J9 (controller board). Turn the printer on. Within a few seconds, the controller board assembly should apply +24 V dc to pin 2. • If voltage is not present, then check or replace the controller board. See “Controller board removal” on page 4-6. • If voltage is present then check pin 1 for 24 V dc as well. If it is close to 24 V dc while the fan is still idle, then replace the fan. See “Fan removal” on page 4-16. FRU Action Cover interlock switch Disconnect the cover interlock cable from the controller board at J7. With the printer turned off: 1. Verify continuity between cable pin 1 and pin 2 with the door closed and discontinuity with the door open. 2. Verify continuity between cable pin 1 and pin 3 with the door open and discontinuity with the door closed. 3. Verify discontinuity between cable pins 2 and 3 whether the door is open or closed. • If any fail, then replace the cover interlock switch. • If both pass continuity, then turn the printer on, and measure +5 V dc on pin 2 at J7 on the controller board. • Verify pin 3 at J7 is ground. • If voltage or ground is not present, then see “Controller board service check” on page 2-23 for more information.

2-26 Service Manual Fuser service check When toner is partially fused to the media, it is usually caused by low fuser temperature. The line voltage to the printer must be within the following limits: • 100 V ac-127 V ac for the 110 V model printer • 200 V ac-240 V ac for the 220 V model printer This printer uses a belt fuser and therefore does not have a lamp. LVPS/HVPS service check Fuser service check FRU Action Fuser power cable LVPS/HVPS Fuser Unplug the printer, and disconnect the fuser cable plug from the LVPS/HVPS board connector at CN102. Check for continuity across the fuser by checking across the connector pins. • If there is continuity, then check the LVPS/HVPS. See “LVPS/HVPS service check” on page 2-26. • If there is no continuity, then disconnect the fuser power cable at both ends, and check each conductor for continuity. Replace cable if necessary. • If the cable tests good, then replace the fuser. Reconnect the cables, turn the printer on, and at &12, check for approximately +5 V dc on pin 1 and ground on pin 2. If line voltage is incorrect on pin 1, then see “Controller board service check” on page 2-23 for more information. Fuser Disconnect the thermistor cable from J12 on the controller board. Measure the resistance across the ends of the thermistor cable. Replace the fuser assembly if the resistance is lower than 1K ohm or shorted. Note: Resistance measures approximately 400K ohms when cool and 1K ohms hot. FRU Action LVPS/HVPS LVPS portion of board Fuses that open typically indicate a faulty LVPS/HVPS. Disconnect the power cable, and open the LVPS/HVPS enough to test the switch. The switch will show continuity across the conductors with a meter when the switch is on. If the switch is good, then see “Dead machine service check” on page 2-25 for more diagnostics. HVPS portion of board Problems with the HVPS are exhibited in the print quality. See “Print quality service checks” on page 2-31 for more information.
Diagnostics information 2-27 Main motor service check FRU Action Main motor gear drive Main motor cable LVPS/HVPS Controller board Warning: Do not replace the operator panel and controller board at the same time.

2-28 Service Manual Operator panel service check Inspect the operator panel cable for damage. Make sure the cable is plugged in securely. Run POST, and check each light for proper operation. See “Power–On Self Test (POST) sequence” on page 2-1. Paper feed service checks Paper jam error indication during POST Media picks but stops halfway through the printer LCD Operator panel service check FRU Action Operator panel (LCD) Controller board Warning: Do not replace the operator panel and controller board at the same time. Each card contains the printer settings. When either of these cards is new, it obtains the settings from the other card. Settings are lost when both are new and replaced at the same time. Lights If the LCD does not come on, then open the controller board cage and locate the operator panel connector at J3. Make sure the cable is properly connected to the controller board and the controller board has input voltage to it. With the printer on, verify the following without disconnecting the cable: • Pins 1, 3, 5, and 6: 3.3 v • Pin 2: 5 v • Pins 4 and 7: GND If these are approximately correct and the operator panel is not functioning, then replace the operator panel. If any are incorrect, then see “Controller board service check” on page 2-23. Buttons If the buttons do not respond, then replace the operator panel. There is no test or repair for the faulty switches on the operator panel. FRU Action Fuser (exit sensor) If the exit sensor flag, which is visible at the back of the fuser, is in any position other than vertical, then the printer will display a paper jam. Make sure the flag is operating freely. Replace the fuser if the sensor is damaged. Input/duplex sensor Manual feed sensor Make sure the input paper feed sensors are working properly. A stuck or incorrectly installed sensor causes a paper jam indication. FRU Action Input/duplex sensors (under print cartridge assembly) Input sensor (manual) Make sure the input sensors are working properly. Check for a broken or stuck flag on the input sensors. Clear anything that keeps the flags from rotating freely. Make sure the cables are seated on the controller board at J27 (input/duplex sensor) and J23 (manual input). Check for +5 V dc on pin 2 and 5 at J27 (input/duplex sensors) and pin 2 at J23 (Input sensor). Voltages on pins 1 and 4 at J27 pin 1 at J23 should change as the flags intersect with the sensor. • If correct, then replace the input paper feed sensor. • If these voltages are not correct, then replace the controller board. • Check the pick tires. Clean or replace as necessary.

Make sure the rubber tires on the ACM are installed and clean. Replace the tires, ACM drive, clutch assemblies, solenoids, or drive shaft as necessary. FRU Action Tray 1 Tray 2 (option) Check tray for media catch points. If the sheet being fed stops momentarily, then the ACM applies additional vertical force, causing additional sheets to feed. Do not mix media types in one tray. Paper pick tires (Tray 1 or tray 2) Check the tires in the ACM assembly for signs of wear or damage. Replace the tires as necessary. ACM clutch Manual feed clutch Media feed clutch ASM (tray 1 only) Manual feed clutch solenoid Open left cover, and observe the solenoid and clutch actions at the ACM and manual feed shafts as a print job is attempted. Replace the faulty part. Controller board P/U and manual feed solenoid ASM. Disconnect the solenoid cable at J26 on the controller board and measure the resistance across cable pins 1 and 2. • The resistance should be approximately 70 ohms. • If it is not, then replace the solenoid. • If the resistance is approximately 70 ohms, then check the controller board. Pin 1 at J26 should be +24 V dc. See “Controller board service check” on page 2-23 for more information. Replace controller board as necessary. FRU Action Paper feed (pick tires) tray 1 Paper feed (pick tires) tray 2 Tray 1 Tray 2 (option) Check tires for debris. If tires are new, then try reversing each on its hub. Check side guides on Tray 1 and Tray 2. Guides set for a full stack of media may be too wide when the stack is short.
2-30 Service Manual Media “trees,” wrinkles, stacks poorly, or curls Parallel or USB port service check 1. Perform a print test to make sure the printer prints correctly. Verify that the indicator light is on, then print the menu settings by selecting Print Menu under Utilities. 2. Be sure the printer parallel cable is designed for bidirectional printing. 3. Be sure the user’s application is set up correctly. 4. If the internal print test page prints correctly, then the user’s application/printer driver is set up correctly, and the correct bidirectional parallel cable is installed, but the printer still fails to print on command from the host computer, replace the controller board. 5. Check the USB cable for continuity. FRU Action Fuser This problem is most likely due to a worn backup roll. It causes the printer to run hotter than required for the media being printed. Excessive heat can cause media treeing problems, poor stacking, or curl. Print the menu sheet found under Utilities. Look at the media settings. Some, such as card stock or rough texture, may require a higher fuser temperature, which leads to more of these problems (except stacking) in plain paper. • Change settings using the printer driver. • Use the local printer setup utility (included on the CD) to change the NVRAM settings. Try a different ream of paper. Moist media has a higher tendency to crease (treeing) and curl.

To exit configuration, turn the printer off. Note: Refer to the print defects guide at the end of the manual for repeating defects. Blank page FRU Action Toner cartridge (not a FRU) Remove the toner cartridge, and gently shake it to evenly distribute the toner. Check for cartridge damage. Printhead LVPS/HVPS Controller board Blank pages can be caused by a defective printhead assembly, LVPS/HVPS, or controller board. • Printhead errors typically result in printer service errors unless there is blockage of the beam or dust on the lens. Check the lens and opening for blockage. • Blank pages typically are caused by the PC roll not being properly charged. Try a different PC kit. • With the cartridge out, check the spring loaded contacts on the right side for free motion. None should be ground except for #4 contact from the front. Unplug the printer, and check the cable continuity between the LVPS/HVPS connector marked OPC (at CN202) and the corresponding wire form (spring) found about 14 mm above and to the right of the transfer roll gear. • If there is not continuity, then call the next level of service. Try a different toner cartridge and PC kit. • If those fail, then replace the LVPS/HVPS, controller board, or the printhead in that order.
2-32 Service Manual Black page Note: Incorrect laser exposure or incorrect charging of the photoconductor causes an all black page. Always verify the same results from a different print cartridge assembly and developer before proceeding. Heavy background Poor development or poorly charged toner particles cause excessive background. This is more noticeable as the toner cartridge nears end-of-life. FRU Action Toner electrodes (not a FRU) Check the three rearward electrodes below the toner cartridge assembly for contamination, damage, or a short to ground. Correct as necessary. Check continuity between the cable (DEV, TAR, and doctor blade) connection PCN3 and on the contact tips below the toner cartridge assembly. • If continuity fails, then call the next level of service. LVPS/HVPS board Controller board Miscellaneous cables With the printer off, disconnect the LVPS/HVPS cable from J502 on the controller board. Turn the printer on, and verify +24 V dc on pins 17 and 19 of the cable. Verify +5 V dc on pins 1, 3, 5, 13, and 15. Verify ground on pins 10, 12,14, 16, and 18. • If any of the values are incorrect, then replace LVPS/HVPS board. • If the grounds are incorrect, then check ground paths. • Check continuity in the cable. If the cable is bad, then call the next level of support. • If the values are correct and the toner electrodes are good, then replace the controller board. • See the “LVPS/HVPS service check” on page 2-26 and the “Controller board service check” on page 2-23, if necessary. FRU Action Toner cartridge (not a FRU) Photoconductor kit (not a FRU) Check the toner darkness setting in the driver. Try a lower setting. Make sure the toner cartridge and photoconductor kit are correctly installed and the high voltage contacts are clean. If the toner cartridge and photoconductor kit are installed correctly, then try a new photoconductor kit first and then toner cartridge. LVPS/HVPS Controller board Check the contacts for correct installation and contamination where contact is made between the print cartridge assembly and spring contacts which connect to the LVPS/HVPS board at CN203. Clean as necessary. If this does not correct the problem, then replace the following FRUs one at a time in the order shown: • LVPS/HVPS board (See “Black page” on page 2-32 for pin values.) • Controller board
