Hi bblasdell,

The 4 and H that you're encountering are describing that the fuser is heating improperly or not heating up. The easiest way to fix this is to replace the fuser unit inside the machine.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

Hi

To reset the counter you'll need to press one-by-one Clear key and Exposure Key twice. The display will be shown as blank. Now press 24 -> start key -> 07 -> start key. To exit from this mode turn it off and on. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

CH stands for close hatch check that the front and side doors are closed. (open both then close again)

Have seen this problem before and if i remember correctly it is down to the fuser running at the wrong temperature. To prove this , make a copy. try and judge when the paper has left the drum but before it reaches the fuser. Open the side cover and very carefully remove the paper. look at the image. if it is clearer then it is the fuser. If it is still fuzzy then the problem lays in the development area.

code is not true.enter (C interrupt zero interrupt)42 start 1 start

Check under the scanner, there is a scanner lock that you may have hit removing copies. Its most likely in the locked position and stopping scan.

You have to open the door on the right side of the machine first, then you can open the front door. Remove the toner cartridge and then you can remove the drum unit.

Odds are, that the fuser driver rachet gear is stripped out and you may also have a broken gear on the upper fusing roller. It could be one or both..... You will have to take the fuser unit out and look at the gears. If you do take the fuser out.... Unplug the copier from the wall...... There are just two screw that take the fuser out, you will have to take off the back cover to unplug and remove the fuser unit.... Good Luck

Check the dash and see if the lower tray is selected or the by-pass tray on the side. If the side tray is selected change to the bottom tray.

It is the fuser temparature error, may be with the heater rod, thermistor or thermostat, or with the mcu pwb. rate this and vote for this

Hello,
It could be carousel out of index. If that is a case, your printer needs service.
However, have you had a chance to try the following steps?
Do a copy instead print to see it copies the whole page?
Take out toner cart and gently shake it back and forth. Look inside to see if you find any pile of lose toner, and check to see if there is any lose parts too and remove them.
Cartridge you currently have: is this new? some cases cartridge can be a problem too. Has it been working fine with the same cartridge? Trying with new cartridge?
Last: if you have tried all but still not working. I believe it is carousel is is out index. You might be able to request the instruction from Sharp on how to to fix this issue, but most of case they request you to bring in.
Let me know if I can further help.
Thanks

Press the following keys in sequence and as fast as possible. Clear, exposure mode (far left key), clear, exposure mode. In other words...clear, far left, clear, far left. The display should go blank if this is done properly. If so then enter 24 as if you were going to make 24 copies, then press print. You should get flashing 000. then enter 7 as if you were making 7 copies, then press print. Should get flashing zero's.
Hit clear a few times and there you go!
Here it is in a line:
"C",far left, "C", far left, 24,print,7,print, CCC or turn machine off then on.
Good Luck

Sounds to me like your lamp is stuck. There is a scan latch that can catch the lamp. it is on the under side of the scanner on the left side.
Or is your lamp not coming on at all.
If it prints , it eliminates the laser, drum and developer unit. Try making a page with the top up and see if the lamp is moving back and forth.
