Press "C" then the "auto" key (exposure mode) then the "C" key then the "auto" key again.

Now press the "print" button
Now key in 7 as if you were making 7 copies
Now press the print button again.

Just press the online button on the copier screen and it will print

Well to do a reset , you don't need to open anywhere but it depends on what reset. To open the scanner glass, just lift the platen cover up and you will see right and left screws , unscrew them and remove the glass and wipe inside.

This machine (Sharp AL 1530CS) is a black and white printer/copier but can Scan (not print) in colour. It only has a black toner so will never print in colour...sorryhttp://www.sharp.net.au/cms/products/4011/downloads/AL1530CS_Brochure.pdf

L1 or L1-00 indicates Scanner movement failure. The scanner is the part under the glass that lights up and moves back and forth. So if you lift up the feeder so you can see the glass, turn the machine off for a few seconds then back on. Watch the movement of the scanner. It should move right and inch or two then back to the left. If all goes well the copier should come to ready. Lay a piece of paper on the glass and press the print button to watch the scanner movement. If it binds up or does not scan correctly there are 2 possibilities.
1) your scanner lock is engaged and is preventing the scanner from moving. Check the clear plastic dial located under the far left upper side of the copier, near where the paper exits the machine. Make sure it is in the unlocked position.
2) Your scanner rail is dirty and dry. This rail can be seen under the glass towards the back of the copier. The scanner rides on this rail. It is very common for these to get dirty and for the grease to dry up causing the scanner to freeze up on the rail. The glass must be removed and the rail cleaned and lubricated.
Just power off then on the copier to reset.

L what? These Sharp machines will flash a letter followed by a number such as L 1. The L1 is the most common so I will give you my link for that solution. If this is not correct just reply back with the code you have.

My AL-1530-CS printer will not copy

Check for registration options in your menu.

There are NO Win 7 drivers, and I suspect there never will be. Sharp are NOT writing a Win 7 driver, for this "Old", according to Win 7, hardware. You may be able to install a, XP SP2 or Vista 64 bit driver, and setup in Compatibility Mode, however if you do,do this EVERY-TIME you Bootup you MUST press F8, and select to Disable "Digital Signature Checking" at bottom of list. You need to do that at install time too.

You didn't mention the number or code or L code.
If its L1-00 its just only the scanner, it means the scanner is locked.

There is a crystal lock under the scanner and on the top of the exit tray. just rotate the lock, makes sure that the front of the lock is on the direction of the scanner(to the right).

Hope it helps...
