General Troubleshooting Flowchart
When the ac power is first applied to the printer:
•• Both the printer motor and the laser/scanner
motor rotate for 6 seconds.
•• All of the LEDs illuminate for one second; the
“Ready” LED will illuminate after 3 seconds.
If no error message is displayed, the Printer Door
is firmly closed, and the toner cartridge is
installed, but the motor does NOT rotate when ac
power is applied to the printer:
1 Verify that ac power is present at the input
power receptacle and that the power cord is
firmly inserted into the printer.
2 Verify that FU102 is not open. (See Figure
7-2.)
3 Verify that motor connector J1 is seated into
J401 of the DC Controller. (See Figure 7-2.)
4 Verify that the motor is correctly mounted to
the printer chassis.
5 If all of these conditions are correct, replace
the DC Controller PCA an/or the motor.
If the Control Panel is not functional:
1 Verify that the Control Panel connector J9 is
seated into both the Control Panel and the
Formatter PCA at J3. (See Figure 7-2.)
2 Verify that the Formatter PCA is firmly seated
into the DC Controller PCA.
3 Perform an Print Engine Test. (See Figure
7-4.)
4 If the engine test is successful, replace the
Control Panel first, then, if necessary, the
Formatter PCA.
5 If the engine test is not successful, replace the
DC Controller PCA.
If the control panel displays an error, refer to the
appropriate section in this chapter to correct the
error.
