SUBJECT: SERVICE CODE 385
SYMPTOM:
SC385 sometimes may occurs at intervals of 20k prints or less
CAUSE:
Toner scatters from the transfer belt during process control, which can then sometimes accumulate on the
center ID sensor.
SOLUTION:
If SC385 occurs, clean the surface of the ID sensor by opening and closing the ID sensor shutter (black felt
covered handle) several times.
The ID sensor shutter is located inside the drum positioning plate (at the end of the ID Sensor).
At the next service visit, make sure that SP3107-02, -04 and –06 all show a value of 200 or lower. If they do
not, clean the ID sensor as described above.
NOTE: In either case, after cleaning the ID sensor, check the SP modes listed above and confirm that
they show a value of 200 or lower.
