Description: At the start of FAX message printing, the controller detects that paper is smaller than A4 size in width.
Causes:
Remedy: Paper smaller than the specified size loaded in the paper tray Load the correct size of paper. Platen stained Clean the platen. Paper width sensor broken Replace the carriage PCB ASSY. Paper width sensor not adjusted Adjust the margin for near-edge printing with Function code 66 in the maintenance mode. Main PCB defective Replace the main PCB.
Code: 81
Description: Recording paper jam. (The paper width sensor keeps detecting paper even after completion of paper ejection.)
Causes:
Remedy: Foreign materials in the paper path Remove foreign materials. The paper ejection roller does not rotate correctly Replace the paper ejection roller. (Engine unit) Paper width sensor broken Replace the carriage PCB ASSY Main PCB defective Replace the main PCB.
Code: 82
Description: Recording paper jam in paper pull-in operation (The paper width sensor fails to detect the leading edge of paper.)
Causes:
Remedy: Foreign materials in the paper path. Remove foreign materials. Paper not loaded correctly in the paper tray Reload paper. Head flat cable connection failure Insert the head flat cables correctly. Paper width sensor defective Replace the carriage PCB ASSY. Main PCB defective Replace the main PCB.
Code: 83
Description: Recording paper jam. (The registration sensor detects paper abnormally early in paper feeding operation.)
Causes:
Remedy: Paper is not correctly set in the paper tray Reload paper. Separation pad damaged Replace the paper tray. Registration sensor actuator unhooked Set the registration sensor actuator into place. Main PCB defective Replace the main PCB. PF encoder sensor defective Replace the PF sensor PCB.
Code: 84
Description: Recording paper jam. (The registration sensor stays ON after completion of paper ejection operation.)
Causes:
Remedy: The paper ejection roller does not rotate correctly Replace the paper ejection roller. (Engine unit) Foreign materials in the paper path. Remove foreign materials. Registration sensor actuator caught on the surrounding parts Correct the surrounding parts on which the actuator caught. Registration sensor broken Replace the PF sensor PCB. Main PCB defective Replace the main PCB.
Code: 87
Description: The paper feed motor has not stopped at the correct position.
Causes:
Remedy: Abnormal load applied to the paper feed roller Check the PF roller gear and its related gears. PF encoder disk stained or scratched Replace the PF encoder disk. PF encoder sensor defective Replace the PF sensor PCB. Paper feed motor broken Replace the paper feed motor. Main PCB defective Replace the main PCB.
Code: 88
Description: Recording paper jam. (Even after paper pulling-in operation, the registration sensor is still OFF.)
Causes:
Remedy: Recording paper not loaded correctly Instruct the user to load the recording paper correctly. Registration sensor broken Replace the registration sensor. Separation pad damaged Replace the paper tray. Objects, such as bits of paper or chips, are in the paper tray Remove the objects from the paper tray. Paper pull-in roller holder defective Replace the paper pull-in roller holder. Purge lever at the right end of the paper feed roller shaft not slid smoothly Clean the purge lever. Any one of the gears at the both side of the paper feed roller shaft are damaged Replace the paper feed roller ASSY with a normal part. Paper feed motor broken Replace the paper feed motor ASSY. Main PCB defective. Replace the main PCB.
Code: 8A
Description: The paper feed motor does not rotate.
Causes:
Remedy: Abnormal load applied to the paper feed roller PF-related gear(s) broken Replace the PF-related gear(s). PF encoder disk stained or scratched Replace the PF encoder disk. PF encoder sensor defective Replace the PF sensor PCB. Paper feed motor defective Replace the paper feed motor. Main PCB defective Replace the main PCB.
