18.2 List
If an image stabilization or scanner fault occurs, the corresponding warning code
appears.

Code Item Description

S-1 CCD gain adjustment failure It is detected that the CCD clamp gain adjustment
value is faulty.
D-1 Split line detect When the main/sub power switches are turned ON or
when the machine is recovering from the power save
mode, if the original cover is not open, the cleaning
brush rotates 360 degrees to detect whether or not
stain exists in the original reading section.
This warning will be displayed if the original is set to
ADF when stain exist.
The thin line detection level and the warning display
can be changed by the following setting.
[Service Mode] [System 2] [Split Line Detect. Set-
ting]
P-5 IDC sensor (front) failure During IDC sensor light intensity correction, output volt-
P-28 IDC sensor (rear) failure age detected for all eight sample patterns are 3.25 V or
more.
During IDC sensor light intensity correction, sensor out-
put voltage for light intensity selected after the correc-
tion is under 0.7 V.
During IDC base surface detective control, sensor out-
put voltage detected is under 0.7 V or over 3.25V.
During image stabilization (gamma correction control),
detected output value for IDC sensor did not go below
threshold (half the value of what is detected by IDC
sensor on the belt surface) for three consecutive times
(position of the pattern end is not detected).
During image stabilization (gamma correction control),
sensors output value of each color for hyper 0 grada-
tion after the primary approximation is half the detec-
tion level on the belt surface or under
P-6 Drum/Development unit (C) failure All density readings taken from the density pattern pro-

photo receiver output) or less during max. density

P-8 Drum/Development unit (Y) failure adjustment (Vg/Vdc adjustment).
P-9 Drum/Development unit (K) failure All density readings taken from the density pattern pro-
duced on the transfer belt are 5.0 g/m2 (IDC sensor
photo receiver output) and more during max. density
adjustment (Vg/Vdc adjustment).
P-14 Skew correction trouble The difference between the skew default position set-
ting value and the cumulative amount of skew adjust-
ment values goes over the predetermined value.
P-21 Color regist test pattern failure During pre-pattern detection, pre-pattern edge (start/
end point of effective area) is not detected within the
pre-pattern search area.
During detection of regist pattern at vertical/horizontal
direction, pattern edge (start/end point of effective
area) is not detected within the pattern search area of
each unit.

Code Item Description
P-22 Color regist adjust failure The gap between maximum and minimum value of
deviations among each color (the values before averag-
ing) is over 3.85 mm.
Average deviation exceeds 3.85 mm.
In case the final value of the deviation after stabilization
exceeds 3.85mm, it is regarded as failure even if the
average deviation is within tolerance.
P-27 Secondary transfer ATVC failure An abnormal average value is detected during an
adjustment of the second image transfer ATVC value.
P-30 PC home sensor (color) Encoder pulse width error is detected consecutively for
malfunction a given period after the color PC motor (m2) rotates
stably with lock signal under active mode (LOW=0).
P-31 PC home sensor (K) malfunction While the transport motor (M1) is rotating at a stable
pace and lock signals are in an active (LOW=0) condi-
tion, an abnormal encoder pulse width continues to be
detected over the predetermined period of time.
L-1 Drum unit/C rotation time excess PC drum rotation time count value used for the life
warning judgment of drum units (the value for PC drum rotation
L-2 Drum unit/M rotation time excess distance calculated into the rotation time) is above the
warning threshold value for the excess warning.
