The interrupt that checks the status of the combined high-voltage power supply board (charge) power pack every 10 ms detected SC signals 15 times consecutively.

Details:

In case of an overcurrent, the charge power pack outputs SC signals. The machine monitors it, and issues an SC when an error occurs.

  • High voltage harness shorted.

  • Leakage around the charge roller caused by a conductive object.

  • Remove the cause of leakage.

When SC signals are detected 25 times consecutively in 20 ms intervals (500 msec).

Details:

When the combined high-voltage power supply board (development) is shorted, the combined high-voltage power supply board (development) detects it by means of an SC signal (HIGH level). The IOB monitors the SC signals as explained above.

  • Development power pack shorted

Disconnect the high voltage cable from the output terminal of the combined high-voltage power supply board (development) of the corresponding color, and check the following points.

  • PWM: Check the signal of the corresponding color.

  • If the signal is fixed to HIGH during photocopying process, replace the harness or the IOB.

  • Check the output of the combined high-voltage power supply board (development) of the corresponding color.

    If the output is fixed to HIGH during photocopying process, replace the combined high-voltage power supply board (charge/development).

If the output is normal during photocopying process, test the resistance between the highvoltage cable and the ground. If resistance is “0” or nearly “0”, replace the high-voltage harness or PCDU.

Detected a lock signal which indicates overcurrent in the toner supply motor.

Error Condition:

  • The toner supply motor current prescribed threshold: 600 mA
  • The lock detection counter
  1. When a toner supply motor is on, it is checked every 1s (100 milliseconds) for motor current value. If the value is exceeds the prescribed threshold, the lock counter increases by one.
    • When the motor current value exceeds the prescribed threshold in one sampling: increase the lock counter by one
    • When the lock signal is not detected in one sampling: clear the counter
  2. The lock detection counter is cleared when the machine is turned OFF/ON (also when the machine enters sleep mode, in which the plotter is turned off), when the screen of the cartridge re-installation is displayed, or when the SC is issued.
  • The lock number counter
  1. The lock number counter increases by one when the lock detection counter exceeds 6 (in case of default value is 0), and when the machine determines
    • If the lock number counter value is 1 to 4, the counter is cleared at the time of the toner end sensor detect the presence of the toner.
  2. The lock number counter is cleared when the machine is turned OFF/ON (also when the machine enters sleep mode, in which the plotter is turned off), and when the SC is issued.

SC Condition:

  • When the lock number counter is more than 5, the machine issues the following SC.
  
  • Toner bottle not set correctly or the torque is large.

  • Toner bottle broken or defective

  • Toner supply motor defective

  • Toner bottle not set correctly, toner bottle broken, or large torque: After the machine stops, ask the user to remove the toner bottle, shake it and set it again. Then cycle the machine off/on to return from SC status.

  • Toner bottle broken or defective: Ask the user to remove the toner bottle and set a normal bottle. Then cycle the machine off/on to return from SC status.

  • Toner supply motor defective: Turn OFF the machine and replace the toner supply motor. Then cycle the machine off/on to return from SC status.

When the TD sensor control voltage (Vtcnt) is 4.3V, the TD sensor output (Vt) is less than 0.7V.

Details:

When executing TD sensor initialization (SP3-030), the machine checks the development unit for the presence of developer. If the error condition is detected at this point, the machine determines that there is no developer and issues the SC.

  • There is an extremely low amount of developer.
