Resolving the Transfer Cooling error
Symptom: The LCD indicates a Transfer Cooling error for an extended period of time.
Driver Settings may be too extreme.
Step Procedure
1 Verify if the Driver settings are too extreme.
a. Run a self-test from the Printer.
b. Select Menu from the LCD.
c. Select Print Test Image from the menu.
d. Select Gray/Align Self test from the Menu. (Note: This will cause the
Laminator to attempt to operate at the default temperature.)
e. If the Transfer Cooling message is not displayed for an extended period of
time, the transfer temperature setting in the LCD is set too high.
2. Adjust the Transfer Temperature setting
a. Press Menu on the LCD.
b. Select Setup Printer, scroll down, and then select Transfer Temp from the
menu.
c. Reduce the current value by 5.
d. Press OK and exit out of the menu.
e. Run a self-test.
f. If the Transfer Cooling message still appears, repeat steps a through e.
g. If the Transfer Cooling message is not displayed, continue printing.
3 Verify if the Thermocouple has failed.
a. Check the Thermocouple by using a Multimeter to check the leads across
the Thermocouple Control C111 on the Lamination Board. (Note: The
voltage should be equal to the desired temperature (degrees C) divided by
100 with an accuracy of +/- 10 degrees C (e.g., 150 degrees equals
1.5VDC).
b. If the correct value is not retuned, the Thermocouple may need to be
replaced.
4 Verify if the Lamination Board is functioning properly. Replace the Lamination
Board (as needed). See the Replacing the Lamination Board (140402)
procedure in Section 5, page 368.
