Fusing low temperature error

Symptom: Detected fusing temperature
remained abnormally low for 1
second during fusing operation
(below 140°C) or during standby
mode

Possible Cause: Fusing thermistor defective
• PSU defective
• Bad connection between fuser and
machine

Problem Cause Solution Colored lines appear. The exposure glass or scanning glass is dirty. Clean them. See "Maintaining Your Machine", About this Machine . Copies appear dirty. Image density is too high. Adjust the image density settings. See "Adjusting Copy Image Density", Copy and Document Server Reference . Copies appear dirty. Auto Image Density is not selected. On the control panel, select [Auto Density]. The reverse side of an original image is copied. Image density is too high. Adjust the image density settings. See "Adjusting Copy Image Density", Copy and Document Server Reference . The reverse side of an original image is copied. Auto Image Density is not selected. On the control panel, select [Auto Density]. A shadow appears on copies if you use pasted originals. Image density is too high.

• Adjust the image density settings. See "Adjusting Copy Image Density", Copy and Document Server Reference .
• Change the orientation of the original.
• Put mending tape on the pasted part.

The same copy area is dirty whenever making copies. The exposure glass, scanning glass, or ADF is dirty. Clean them. See "Maintaining Your Machine", About This Machine . The same copy area is dirty whenever making copies.

• The original that has already been printed is scanned.
• Original Type is set to [Text / Photo], and an original with text and photographs that can hardly be distinguished from each other is loaded.

On the control panel, press [Generation Copy], and then begin copying. Copies are too light. Image density is too light. Adjust the image density settings. See "Adjusting Copy Image Density", Copy and Document Server Reference . Copies are too light. A light copy may result when you use damp or rough grain paper. Use recommended paper only and be sure its storage environment meets the recommended temperature and humidity conditions. For details about recommended paper and the proper way to store it, see "Recommended Paper Sizes and Types" and "Paper Storage", About This Machine . Parts of images are not copied. The original is not set correctly. Set originals correctly. See "Placing Originals", Copy and Document Server Reference . Parts of images are not copied. The correct paper size is not selected. Select the proper paper size. Parts of images are not copied. Even if you place originals in the ADF correctly, margin of a few millimeters on all four sides of the original might not be copied. Use "Create Margin" function to reduce the image of its original size. For details about missing image area, see "Missing Image Area", Copy and Document Server Reference . images appear only partially. The paper is damp. Use paper that has been stored in the recommended temperature and humidity condition. For details about the proper way to store it, see "Paper Storage", About This Machine . Black lines appear. The exposure glass or scanning glass is dirty. Clean them. See "Maintaining Your Machine", About This Machine . White lines appear. The exposure glass or scanning glass is dirty. Clean them. See "Maintaining Your Machine", About This Machine . White lines appear. The dustproof glass is dirty. Clean the dustproof glass. See "Cleaning the Dustproof Glass", About This Machine . Copies are blank. The original is not set correctly. When using the exposure glass, face the originals down. When using the ADF, face them up. A moir? pattern is produced on copies. Your original has a dot pattern image or many lines. Place the original on the exposure glass at a slight angle. Black spots appear on the copy of a photographic print. Because of high humidity, the photographic print has stuck to the exposure glass. Place the print on the exposure glass in either of the following ways:

• Place an OHP transparency on the exposure glass, and then place the print on the OHP transparency.
• Place the print on the exposure glass, and then place two or three sheets of white paper on it. Leave the ADF open when copying.

White stripes appear on the OHP. Fragments of paper are stuck to the OHP. Use a dry cloth to wipe any paper fragments off the back of the OHP. The image on the back side of duplex copies has mottled blank patches or is smudged. Missing patches and smudges are caused by moisture leaking from the paper.

• Do not install the machine in areas that are susceptible to low temperatures.
• Use paper that has been stored where temperature and humidity conditions meet the limitations we recommend. For details about the paper storage conditions we recommend, see "Paper Storage", About This Machine .
• Install the Optional anti-humidity heater. For details about the anti-humidity heater, contact your service representative.

When You Cannot Make Clear Copies

reset by going into service mode "clear modes (yellow) and 1 0 7 then hold stop for 5 or so seconds -Carl

Check your developing gear maybe one already worn out replace one set 5 pieces if not try re-install toner cartridge twice, check sp mode -toner drop or reset. hope this may help you.

Check copy life of consumables like Developer and Drum if ghost image might be Cleaning Blade found Imagaing Unit or Upper Fuser at Fusing Unit. If replace the whole imaging unit can solve your problem but individual parts try to clean first imaging include charge roller before you replace drum, cleaning blade and developer. mostly we replace developer only.

Clean the true white on the slit glass housing. Check for a dirty scanner mirror or that the scanner mirror is out of position. Also, check if the scanner is blocked or if the dirty white plate underneath the glass is obstructed. Try cleaning the glass with water. To reset this error try the code:"Clear Mode"+107+"Clear/Stop" hold for 5s.Turn ON and OFF the Main Switch.

The exposure lamp is the lamp that lights up when you copy something which is located under the scanner glass. It is on the carriage that moves from side to side when copying from the glass.

if you already replace PCU still produce line on copy it could be fuser roller found at fusing unit. if black lines replace fuser unit or if available fuser roller much better but if white lines just clean laser unit. another problem may contribute might be deform frame of scanning section includes mirrors and alignment of lens unit this problem occur usually upon transport of the machine.

check cleaning blade or hot roller

Standby temperature error 1

Symptom:
Fusing temperature failed to
drop to expected level within a
given time (15 seconds, 15
minutes, or 25 minutes,
depending on mode) after
entering standby or low-power
mode.

Possible Cause:
• TRIAC short
• Fan not running

What type of environment is this copier in? Standard office, warehouse, etc. If the temperature in the area fluctuates a lot, that could have something to do with your problem. Usually ghosting problems like that originate in the fuser. Try increasing or decreasing the fuser temperature to see if that fixes the issue.

Try to stop the copier (by jamming a sensor or opening a cover) mid-way through the printing cycle. Remove the 1/2 copied document out from the drum area. Look to see if you have the double printing. This will eliminate the fuser as the problem. If you don't have the double printing then the fuser's cleaning roller may be shot causing repeat image. If it is in the drum area it will be hard to determine since you already replaced the drum(?). But there is a "cleaning" lamp or charge wire on the drum to check.

You need to forcibly open the tray, that's the only way. It could be the feed roller assy is gettin hung up.

sound like it needs a service,u need to clean the optics and scrape the hot roller, engineer needs to do that though

please try to open the cover while the machine is on and close it back or remove the toner and putt it back sometimes the machine not register the new toner good, so you need to do this two or three times if this not help call a technician
