Power subsystem

Power-on checks

The basic product functions should start up when the product is connected into an electrical outlet and
the power switch is pushed to the on position. If the product does not start, use the information in this
section to isolate and solve the problem.

Power-on troubleshooting overview

Turn on the product power. The main cooling fan should begin to spin briefly after the product power is
turned on. Place your hand over the holes in the left-side cover, near the formatter. If the fan is
operating, you will feel air passing out of the product. You can also lean close to the product and hear
the fan operating. You can also place your hand over the hole in the right-rear lower corner. If the fan
is operating, you should feel air being drawn into the product. When this fan is operational, the DC
side of the power supply is functioning correctly.
After the fan is operating, the main motor turns on (unless the right or front cover is open, a jam
condition is sensed, or the paper-path sensors are damaged). You might be able to visually and
audibly determine if the main motor is turned on.
If the fan and main motor are operating correctly, the next troubleshooting step is to isolate print
engine, formatter, and control panel problems. Perform an engine test. If the formatter is damaged, it
might interfere with the engine test. If the engine-test page does not print, try removing the formatter,
and then perform the engine test again. If the engine test is then successful, the problem is almost
certainly with the formatter, the control panel, or the cable that connects them.
If the control panel is blank when you turn on the product, check the following items.
1.
Make sure that the product is connected directly into an active electrical outlet (not a power strip)
that delivers the correct voltage.
2.
Make sure that the power switch is in the on position.
3.
Make sure that the fan runs briefly, which indicates that the power supply is operational.
4.
Make sure that the control-panel display wire harness is connected.

Compare the images with the sample defects in the image defect
tables. See the images defects table in the product service manual.
No
After the print-quality is acceptable, see step 6.
Verify that all I/O cables are connected correctly and that a valid
IP address is listed on the Jetdirect configuration page.
No
If error messages display on the control panel when you try to print
an event log, see the control panel message section of the service
manual.
When the customer can print from the host computer, this is the
end of the troubleshooting process.
