c0700 on minolta di350, di250

June 3, 2009

-toner motor is unable to rotate the toner bottle= The most likely cause is  wrong pointing of toner bottle 

Solving:

turn of the copier, pull out the toner bottle(don’t rotate the bottle

turn on the copier :

1. hear the noise behind the copier then- c0700 = the toner motor or toner rotate mechanism was broken -you must change the toner rotate mechanism or change all (motor +mechanism) with a new toner motor from EP 1050/1054-it works perfect.

2. c 0700  code appears immediately : first -check and repair the toner rotate mechanism-see above-

                                                                         :second- replace the blowed 1A fuse on PWB-A with new one

turn on the copier — everything seems ok ? insert toner bottle in correct position

bizhub 250/350 code c2557

April 25, 2009

Troubleshooting for bizhub 250/350 are generally the same like DI250/350  the major difference is this code : 2557

Code usually appears when the meter count of drum and developer (in service mode) was reseted without changing deleloper followed by F8.

how to reset:

-the simplest way is to change developer and run F8.

-without change the developer:

—First : add a spoon of toner in dev. unit and instantly run F8.

—Second (if first way was not good) : in service mode-level history-atdc,There you will see displayed the current value of ATDC. Usually this value should be approximately 13 %, but after resseting it becomes 5-6 % and comes into contradiction with the presetting value in tech rep choice-printer- ATDC gain (155).

So,  increase the concentration of toner in developing unit adding little amount of toner or decrease or increase the default value (in tech rep choice-printer - ATDC gain) to match the actual concentration in developing unit.

This procedure is logical and  it works but requires some patience and experience.

bizhub 420 code reset-service mode

bizhub c451,c 550,minolta c650 trouble

March 28, 2009

Jam in DF611:

-on 2-nd side:

Check  mylar on the 2nd transport guide plate.

Replace the damaged mylar  p/n :  9J07 4703 01

-on 1st side:

  • put the tension spring of feed roller  in lower position.
  • ckech the sensors inside DF611 case and use some adhesive (super glue, super bond) so that the sensors cases will be hard-set.

P21 warning :


- color shift in main scan direction
the amount of color shift is different between front and back side. Color shift occurs at 1 to 2 mm in the worst position.

bizhub C650/C550/C451 (FW Ver.6B only)

The problem will be observed when below 2 conditions meet. However it is not always but it depends on the gain of image density sensor (IDC).
1. When MFP returns from sleep mode within 8 hours from the last image stabilization.
2. In case MFP detects temperature change in printer head at more than 2 degrees from the last regist control when returning from sleep mode.

 

<Cause>
Regist control, which takes place in above condition,  is carried out with improper sensor gain setting.
- P-21 is displayed when the sensor gain is low for the MFP to detect toner pattern.
- Color shift occurs when MFP miss-detect toner pattern due to improper gain setting.

 How to recover the problem:

 

-Apply FW Ver.6M or later

- Turn off/on the main switch
- Carrying out image stabilization

-in the small hole on the right side of the control panel(same as DI 350,di351)press the soft initialization 

- When the dot appears on the LCD after reboot, press  3 key.

-enter the service code (default 0000000)

- The mode will change to the initialization screen.

-Choose trouble reset.

 -after reboot close the right door 

-if same trouble appear again- check the thermal fuse or thermistors(heat sensing elements) or replace the fusing unit.

 

Light copy on ADF (DF):

-clean with alcohol the optical unit (original glass, mirrors, lamp, lens)

-use the two screws in rear side of DF to correct the position of DF againts original glass.

-pull out the imaging unit and clean the frame glass of laser unit.
