1. Transportation/Installation
- When transporting/installing the equipment, employ at least two persons, take off the drawer
from it and be sure to hold the positions as shown in the figure. The equipment is quite heavy
and weighs approximately 24.4 kg (53.79 lb.), therefore pay full attention when handling it.
* To ensure the space to hold the equipment securely, take off the drawer as shown in the
figures (A) and (B).
(A) (B)
- Be sure not to hold the movable parts or units (e.g. the ADU or RADF) when transporting the
equipment.
- Be sure to use a dedicated outlet with AC AC 110V / 15A, 120 V / 12 A, 220-240 V / 8A for its
power source.
- The equipment must be grounded for safety.
- Select a suitable place for installation. Avoid excessive heat, high humidity, dust, vibration and
direct sunlight.
- Provide proper ventilation since the equipment emits a slight amount of ozone.
- To insure adequate working space for the copying operation, keep a minimum clearance of 80
cm (32”) on the left, 80 cm (32”) on the right and 10 cm (4”) on the rear.
- The equipment shall be installed near the socket outlet and shall be accessible.
- Be sure to fix and plug in the power cable securely after the installation so that no one trips over
it.
- When the equipment is used after the option is removed, be sure to install the parts or the covers
which have been taken off so that the inside of the equipment is not exposed.
- Do not use an ozone generator near the MFP. Or, place any ozone generator as far away from
the MFP as possible.
- Do not use an ultrasonic humidifier near the MFP. Components such as chlorinate and mineral
will be atomized by an ultrasonic humidifier and they will adhere to electric parts in the MFP. This
could cause malfunctions.
2. General Precautions at Service
- Be sure to turn the power OFF and unplug the power cable during service (except for the service
should be done with the power turned ON).
- After the power cable is disconnected, an electric charge may remain in the boards of the
equipment. Therefore, be sure to disconnect or connect the connectors when about 1 minute
(e.g.: the time for taking off the rear cover) has passed after the power cable is disconnected.
- The fuse could be in the neutral. The mains supply shall be disconnected to de-energize the
phase conductors.
- Unplug the power cable and clean the area around the prongs of the plug and socket outlet once
a year or more. A fire may occur when dust lies on this area.
- When the parts are disassembled, reassembly is the reverse of disassembly unless otherwise
noted in this manual or other related documents. Be careful not to install small parts such as
screws, washers, pins, E-rings, star washers in the wrong places.
- Basically, the equipment should not be operated with any parts removed or disassembled.
- The PC board must be stored in an anti-electrostatic bag and handled carefully using a wristband
since the ICs on it may be damaged due to static electricity.
Caution: Before using the antistatic wrist strap, unplug the power cable of the
equipment and make sure that there are no charged objects which are not
insulated in the vicinity.
- Avoid exposure to laser beam during service. This equipment uses a laser diode. Be sure not to
expose your eyes to the laser beam. Do not insert reflecting parts or tools such as a screwdriver
on the laser beam path. Remove all reflecting metals such as watches, rings, etc. before starting
service.
- Be sure not to touch high-temperature sections such as the fuser unit, damp heater and areas
around them.
- Be sure not to touch high-voltage sections such as the chargers, transfer roller, developer, high-
voltage transformer and power supply unit. Especially, the board of these components should not
be touched since the electric charge may remain in the capacitors, etc. on them even after the
power is turned OFF.
- Make sure that the equipment will not operate before touching potentially dangerous places (e.g.
rotating/operating sections such as gears, belts pulleys, fans and laser beam exit of the laser
optical unit).
- Be careful when removing the covers since there might be the parts with very sharp edges
underneath.
- When servicing the equipment with the power turned ON, be sure not to touch live sections and
rotating/operating sections. Avoid exposing your eyes to laser beam.
- Use designated jigs and tools.
- Use recommended measuring instruments or equivalents.
- Return the equipment to the original state and check the operation when the service is finished.
- Do not leave plastic bags where children can get at them. This may cause an accident such as
suffocation if a child puts his/her head into a bag. Plastic bags of options or service parts must be
brought back.
- There is a risk of an electric shock or fire resulting from the damage to the harness covering or
conduction blockage. To avoid this, be sure to wire the harness in the same way as that before
disassembling when the equipment is assembled/disassembled.
3. General operations
- Check the procedures and perform them as described in the Service Manual.
- Make sure you do not lose your balance.
- Avoid exposure to your skin and wear protective gloves as needed.
4. Important Service Parts for Safety
The breaker, door switch, fuse, thermostat, thermofuse, thermistor, batteries, IC-RAMs including
lithium batteries, etc. are particularly important for safety. Be sure to handle/install them properly. If
these parts are short-circuited and their functions become ineffective, they may result in fatal
accidents such as explosion or fire. Avoid short-circuiting and do not use the parts not
recommended by Toshiba Tec Corporation.
5. Cautionary Labels
During servicing, be sure to check the rating label and cautionary labels such as “Unplug the power
cable during service”, “CAUTION. HOT”, “CAUTION. HIGH VOLTAGE”, “CAUTION. LASER BEAM”,
etc. to see if there is any dirt on their surface and if they are properly stuck to the equipment.

• Original glass
This is a glass for placing original. Original (image) placed on the original glass is scanned by the
CIS.
The RADF original glass is used when original is read with the Reversing Automatic Document
Feeder. Original is transported on the RADF original glass by the Reversing Automatic Document
Feeder, and the transported original is read under the RADF original glass by the CIS. Do not use
such solvents as alcohol when cleaning the surface of the RADF original glass, because it is coated 3
so as not to be scratched by originals.

- CMOS sensor
Scans the light reflected from an original and converts it to an electrical signal.
In order to realize the same-to-scale optical system of A3 width and 7344 image pixels, the
equipment uses 17 CMOS sensors (each CMOS sensor has 432 image pixels per line) to make
up a CMOS sensor of 600 x 600 dpi resolution for scanning.
[ 1 ] Scanning operation
• Scanning an original on the original glass
During the scanning operation, the rotation of the scan motor (M1) is transmitted to the timing belt to
move the CIS unit (CIS).
The CIS unit (CIS) makes the position of the shading correction plate, attached to the inside of the
top cover, move left-to-right to carry out the initialization.
At this time, the CIS unit (CIS) detects the black mark position on the shading correction plate and
thus the home position is determined.
When the [START] button is pressed, the CIS unit (CIS) starts scanning the originals.
When scanning is finished, the CIS unit (CIS) carries out the initialization, returns to its home
position and then stops.

• Main charger 3
The main charger in this equipment consists of a metal rod with U-shaped section, insulated blocks
at both ends of the rod and a needle electrode attached between them.
When a high voltage is applied to the needle electrode, the air around it is charged (ionized). The
ionized air then flows into the drum causing it to be charged. This phenomenon is called “corona
discharge”. At the same time, a control bias is applied to the main charger grid to control the
charging amount.
In a dark place, negative charge is evenly applied onto the drum surface by the corona discharge
and this grid. In addition, a cleaner is installed to clean up the dust attached on the needle electrode.
- Needle electrode
The needle electrode has aligned needles and their points perform the corona discharge. These
points (electrodes) discharge toward the drum in one direction to realize the more efficient
discharging comparing to the charger wire which discharges in a radial direction. Therefore, the
needle electrode enables to reduce the ozone amount.

• Drum cleaner
- Cleaning blade
This blade is pressed against the drum surface and scrapes off the residual toner from the drum
surface.
- Recovery blade
This blade catches the toner scraped off by the cleaning blade.
- Toner recovery auger
This auger carries the residual toner scraped off to the developer unit and reuses the toner.
3.13.1 Configuration
Development is the process of converting electrostatic latent images into visible images. The developer
material is supplied onto the photoconductive drum surface by the developer sleeve (magnet roller).
Then the toner in the developer material adheres to this drum surface to form images. This process is
performed in the developer unit.
This chapter explains about the units, parts and control circuits related to development. 3
The developer unit in this equipment has a recovered toner supply mechanism which recycles the
recovered toner scraped off by the drum cleaning blade. The developer unit is driven by the main motor
(M3) to rotate the mixers and the developer sleeve.

[ 1 ] General description
• Toner cartridge installation detection mechanism (IC chip)
The toner cartridge is filled with toner. The toner motor drives the cartridge to supply the toner to the
developer unit.
The IC chip detects whether a toner cartridge is installed.
• Developer unit 3
- Developer material
The developer material is made of a mixture of the carrier and toner.
The carrier is an electrical conductive ferrite whose size is approx 44 µm. The toner is a resin
particle whose size is approx 8.5 µm.
The developer material needs periodic replacement since its quality is deteriorated by long use.
- Mixers-1 and -2
Friction is generated by mixing the developer material. The carrier is charged to (+) and the toner
to (–), and the image is formed on the drum surface by the static electricity caused by the friction.
- Doctor blade
Doctor blade controls the amount of the developer material transported by the developer sleeve
so that the magnetic brush of the developer material contacts with the drum surface properly.
- Auto-toner sensor
The carrier and the toner (toner density) in the developer material should be always fixed to a
certain ratio to output normal images. The auto-toner sensor detects the inclusion ratio of the
toner in the developer material by using a magnetic bridge circuit. When the quantity of toner
becomes insufficient, the toner motor is driven to supply the toner from the toner cartridge.
• Toner cartridge
This is filled with the toner and this supplies the toner to the developer unit by the drive of the toner
motor (M2). The toner cartridge in this equipment mounts the toner cartridge PC board (CTRG), and
the data identifying recommended Toshiba toner cartridges and the counter values determining that
the cartridge is nearly empty are written in this board. These data are read out by the toner cartridge
interface PC board (CTIF) in this equipment, and data related to toner supply are also written in the
toner cartridge PC board (CTRG). The toner cartridge interface PC board (CTIF) also detects
whether the toner cartridge is installed or not.
These data written in the toner cartridge PC board (CTRG) enable the functions below, and accordingly
this equipment operates as shown below.
Data reading is performed every time when the power is turned ON, the toner supply cover is closed
and the equipment has recovered from the sleep mode.
(2) Functions
• Cartridge detecting function
This function checks whether the toner cartridge is inserted correctly or not, and whether the
recommended toner cartridge is used or not.
• Toner remaining check function
This function notifies the user of the near-empty status of toner. Normally, the message (Toner
is low) is displayed when the toner is running out, and (Toner empty) when the toner cartridge
is empty.
• Toner remaining check notification function
Upon detecting the near-empty status of toner, this function automatically notifies your service
representative.
• Image optimization function
This function controls the quality of images to be optimal according to the characteristics of
the toner used.
• Toner remaining display function
This function displays the remaining toner amount from 0% to 100%.
(3) Operations
A sign indicating that the toner cartridge is nearly empty appears in the following cases:
• The counter value for the toner cartridge rotation time has exceeded the threshold previously
written in the toner cartridge PC board (CTRG). (Related code: 08-5155)
• The remaining amount of toner is equal to or less than the set amount (percentage or number
of sheets). (Related code: 08-5155, 08-5810)
When a used cartridge refilled with new toner is used, a sign indicating that the toner cartridge is
empty appears because information for determining the empty status is already written in the
toner cartridge PC board (CTRG).
When a non-recommended toner cartridge is used, “Toner not recognized” appears on the
control panel, and then the equipment may stop normal operations. The toner remaining display
function, the toner remaining check function, the automatic remote supply order to Toshiba sales
representatives and the image optimization function may also be disabled.
The self-diagnosis codes to adjust the timing for displaying the toner near-empty status are as
follows.
• Fine adjustment of threshold value for displaying the toner remaining amount / toner near-
empty (08-5156)
Performs fine adjustment of the threshold value for displaying the toner remaining amount
and toner near-empty.
Display threshold value = Default threshold value x setting value/100 (Unit: %)
When the change is made by using the toner remaining amount (%), set “4” in 08-5155 and
exchange the value of 08-5810. In order to designate the toner near-empty while the toner
remaining amount is greater than the default value, set a larger value in 08-5810.

Notes:
• Do not perform the change operations 1 (Fine adjustment of the toner remaining amount display) and 2
(Toner near-empty setting change) simultaneously. Otherwise, the desired results may not be obtained.
If the change is required by the combination of the operations 1 (Fine adjustment of the toner remaining
amount display) and 2 (Toner near-empty setting change), only perform either of them first. Then
change the setting for another one while checking the results.
• The values of the toner remaining amount and the number of print sheets are the reference. They will
vary depending on the printed images and usage conditions.

• Fuser roller
The fuser roller applies heat onto the paper and is heated by the heater lamps installed inside of the
fuser roller. The heat from this roller fuses toner onto the paper. The fuser roller in this equipment is
a thin roller which enhances heat conduction, and thus the warming-up time is shortened.
• Separation finger
Five separation fingers are installed above the fuser roller, in order to separate paper adhering to
each roller.
• Exit roller
The exit roller transports the paper from the fuser unit to the inner tray. This roller is driven by the
exit motor.
When the power is turned ON, the warming up of the fuser unit is started: the heater lamps are turned
ON. If the temperature of the fuser roller does not reach or exceeds a specified temperature within a
specified period of time, it is judged that the heater is abnormal. When the specified temperature has
been reached normally, the equipment goes into the ready state.
When printing is not performed within a specified period of time during ready, the equipment enters the
Auto Power Save Mode and turns the heater lamp. OFF or lowers the control temperature to save
power consumption. And if printing is not performed within another specified period of time after the
equipment has entered the Auto Power Save Mode, the equipment then enters the Auto Shut Off mode
to turn OFF the heater lamp.
[ 1 ] Configuration
In this equipment, the surface temperature of the fuser roller is controlled by turning ON/OFF the 2
heater lamps (center and side) which have different heat-generating positions with the command from
the engine-CPU on the MAIN board.
The surface temperature of the fuser roller is detected by 3 thermistors (center, side and edge) and
then the information of the temperature is transmitted to the engine-CPU and each control circuit.
Based on the detected temperature, the engine-CPU transmits the control signal of the heater lamp to
the control circuit (TRC: Triac) of each heater lamp on the switching regulator via the temperature
control circuit. The power supply to the fuser roller is thus controlled by driving TRC. The temperature
control circuit detects the overheating of the fuser roller. In case that the surface temperature of the
fuser roller has exceeded the specified temperature, the temperature control circuit turns the heater
lamp OFF. If the temperature control circuit does not function for some reason and the fuser roller is
abnormally overheated as the result, a relay OFF circuit transmits a relay OFF signal to turn off the
relay, and to turn the power OFF forcibly.
If the temperature control circuit does not function for some reason and the fuser roller is abnormally
overheated as the result, a forcible power-OFF circuit transmits a reset signal to the power switch to
turn the power OFF forcibly. In addition, if these control circuits do not function with thermistor
abnormality or other reasons and the fuser roller is abnormally overheated as the result, 2 thermostats
(front and center ones in the fuser unit) shut off the power supply to the heater lamps to protect the
equipment.

- If the error codes [C411] to [C452] are displayed and still not cleared even though the thermistor,
thermostat and heater lamp have been repaired (and the power ON/OFF does not clear the
error), check the Setting Mode (08-2002) to set the fuser unit error status counter to “0”.
Remarks:
• If the heater lamp does not turn ON and the service call [C411] is displayed immediately after the power
is ON, confirm if the fuser unit error status counter is “2” or over. If it is “2” or over, be sure to check the
thermistor, thermostat and heater lamp. Reset the counter to “0” after repairing them, then turn ON the
power.
• If the fuser unit error status counter is “20” or over (e.g., 31), the data in the memory * or the memory
itself may possibly have been ruined due to causes such as leakage from the chargers. Check the bias,
high-voltage transformers and charge wires to see if any of them is defective, and also look through all
the data in the memory.
• When the thermistors detect overheating, the SoC decides the error code and counter value of the fuser
unit error status, and turns OFF each output (the heater lamp, control panel display, motors and so on)
to protect the fuser unit.
Thermistors continue detecting the abnormal temperature even after the error codes and
counter values are decided. Even if the power is turned ON immediately, the heater lamp is
automatically turned OFF again when the surface temperature of the fuser roller is still higher
than the abnormal temperature detected.
Wait until the surface temperature of the fuser roller is lowered enough, and turn ON the
power to check the counter value. After confirming that it is the fuser unit abnormality, correct
the abnormality and reset the counter value (08-2002) to “0” to start up the equipment
normally.

The switchbacked paper is transported with acceleration. The transportation decelerates in front of the
ADU sensor. The front side printing (recording data of the front side of paper) is performed at the
registration section. The paper passes through the exit gate again and is transported to the inner tray to
complete duplex printing. 3
There are two methods of judging a paper jam: (1) whether the ADU sensor is turned ON or not in a
specified period of time after the switchback to the ADU started (E510). (2) whether the registration
sensor is turned ON or not in a specified period of time after the paper feeding from the ADU to the
equipment (E110).
If the ADU is opened during duplex printing, the ADU motor and ADU clutch are stopped, namely, ADU
open jam occurs (E430).
3.16.1 Composition
The power supply unit consists of the AC filter, insulation type DC output circuit and heater lamp control
circuit.
• AC filter
Eliminates noise from the outside and prevents the noise generated by the equipment from leaking
to the outside.
• DC output circuits
Converts AC voltage input from outside to DC voltage and supplies it to each electric part. The DC
voltage is divided into the following two lines.
a. Power switch line: Power supply used in the entire equipment during image forming process.
Two kinds of voltage (+24VS, +24VA) are output when the power switch of the equipment is turned
ON.
b. Door switch line: Power supply used in the entire equipment during image forming process, being
supplied via the interlock switch. One kind of voltage (+24VD) is output only when the power switch
of the equipment is turned ON and two doors (toner supply cover and right cover) are closed.
+5VD is generated for MAIN board.
Notes:
The power supply unit does not supply the power to the damp heater. The power is supplied to
the damp heater from the FUS board. The harness from the inlet is connected to the FUS board.
The power is supplied to the FUS board via this harness.
• Output protection
Each output system includes an overcurrent and overvoltage protection circuits, fuses and internal
protection circuits. This system is to prevent defective issues (such as damage to a secondary
circuit or malfunction) which may be caused by an overcurrent due to a short circuit or an
overvoltage due to a short circuit between different voltages. If the protection circuit is activated
(except in the case the fuse is blown out), remove the causes such as the short circuiting. Turn ON
the power again to clear the overcurrent protection.
- Sleep mode
Since +24VS and +24VA DC voltage is supplied to the MAIN board and +24VD DC voltage is not
supplied, the machine enters the power saving mode.

5.10.3 Functions
Important:
• The USB device for the backup/restore must meet the following conditions. A backup/restore operation
with any devices other than the following will not be guaranteed.
- A combination USB device with a flash memory (to be connected directly to the USB port)
and its capacity is 1GB or more.
- A device compliant with the following specifications established by USB-IF (USB
implementers Forum)
Class number: 8 (=08h) (Mass-storage class)
Sub-class number: 6 (=06h) (SCSI transfer command set)
Protocol number: 80 (=50h) (Bulk-Only)
The USB device should be formatted in the FAT or FAT32. (Correct operation cannot be
guaranteed if it is formatted in NTFS/exFAT.)
- Most of the common USB devices are compliant with the above specifications and are
therefore applicable to this backup/restore. However, most of these devices were originally
developed to be used in an environment for PCs (e.g. Windows or Macintosh) and thus
operations exclusively with this equipment have not been fully guaranteed. Therefore, the
user must thoroughly check in advance whether there will be any problem in operating
with this equipment when adopting one of these devices.
• A USB device compliant with both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 can be used for this backup/restore.
• Backup/restore with any storage devices other than a flash memory (e.g. USB-connectable memory
card reader, CD/DVD drive, hard disk) will never be guaranteed. Therefore never use them for this
operation.
• Be sure to unplug the LAN cable and Fax line before data are backed up / restored. Also, do not use the
RADF and open the cover, drawer, etc. during the backup/restore.
• Data can be backed up / restored only for the same model and version. If the version is different, update
the firmware and backup / restore data in the same version.
• Restore data to any equipment which has the same options as when the data are backed up.
• Delete the backed up data in the USB device after backup/restore.

Notes:
When paper thinner than specified is used, paper jams may occur frequently at the registration
section. In this case, it is advisable to change (or reduce) the aligning amount.
However, if the aligning amount is reduced too much, this may cause the shift of leading edge
position. So, when adjusting the aligning amount, try to choose the appropriate amount while
confirming the leading edge position is not shifted.
* As a tentative countermeasure, the service life of the feed roller can be extended by
increasing the aligning amount.

• Photoconductive drum
Like the toner and developer, photoconductive drum should be stored in a dark place where the
ambient temperature is between 10°C to 35°C (no condensation). Be sure to avoid places where
drums may be subjected to high humidity, chemicals and/or their fumes.
• Paper
Avoid storing paper in places where it may be subjected to high humidity. After a package is opened,
be sure to place and store it in a storage bag.
• Transfer roller
Transfer roller should be stored in a place where the ambient temperature is between 10°C to 35°C
(no condensation). Be sure to avoid places where transfer roller may be subjected to high humidity,
chemicals and/or their fumes.
• Handling precautions
As the photoconductive drum surface is very sensitive, be sure to handle the drum carefully when
installing and removing it so as not to damage its surface.
Be sure to apply “patting powder” (lubricant) to the entire surface of the drum (including both ends of
the drum where OPC is not coated) when replacing the drum. When the drum has been replaced
with a new one, the drum counter (the Setting Mode 08-6250-0, 3, 6 and 7) must be cleared to 0
(zero).
Notes:
• Application of patting powder is for reducing the friction between the drum and cleaning blade. If the
application of patting powder is neglected, the drum and cleaning blade may be damaged.
• When paper fibers or thread adhere to the cleaning blade edge, they may reduce the cleaning efficiency
and, in addition, may damage the blade and the drum. Be sure to remove any fibers found adhering to
the blade.
7
• Installation of the equipment and storage of drum
Avoid installing the equipment where it may be subjected to high temperature, high humidity,
chemicals and/or their fumes.
Do not place the light drum in a location where it is exposed to direct sunlight or high intensity light
such as near a window. Otherwise the drum will fatigue, and will not produce sufficient image
density immediately after being installed in the equipment.
• Cleaning procedure
Clean the blade edge with a cloth moistened with water and squeezed lightly.
- Pressure roller
Do not leave any oil (fingerprints, etc.) on the pressure roller.
• Checking
- Check for stain and damage on the fuser and pressure rollers, and clean if necessary.
- Check the separation guide and fingers and check for chipped tips.
- Check the thermistors for proper contact with the pressure roller.
- Check the fused and fixed condition of the toner.
- Check the gap between the entrance guide and pressure roller.
- Check the fuser roller for proper rotation.
• Cleaning procedure
When fuser roller and pressure roller become dirty, they will cause jamming. If this happens, wipe
the surface clean with a piece of soft cloth. For easier cleaning, clean the roller while they are still
warm.
Notes:
Be careful not to rub the fuser roller and pressure roller surface with your nails or hard objects
because it can be easily damaged. Do not use silicone oil on the fuser roller and pressure roller.
• Cleaning procedure
If bits of thread or similar adhere to the surface, remove them with gloves or a pair of tweezers. Be
careful that the roller surface is not damaged by the points of the tweezers.
• 2523A/2523AD/2823AM/2323A: When the number of output pages has reached 144,000 or 5 years
have passed from the start of use (Whichever comes earlier)
• 2323AM: When the number of output pages has reached 132,000 or 5 years have passed from the
start of use (Whichever comes earlier)
• 2829A: When the number of output pages has reached 156,000 or 5 years have passed from the
start of use (Whichever comes earlier)
(1) Check the components in the drive section (gears, pulleys, timing belts, etc.). Replace them with
new ones if they are damaged.
(2) Check all the adhesives such as tape and Mylar if they are damaged or have become unstuck.
Replace them with new ones if necessary.
(3) Check the performance of all the switches and sensors. Replace them with new ones if
necessary.
(4) Clean inside the equipment thoroughly.
The cause of a trouble in the equipment may be a minor failure. Check the items below first.
Notes: 8
If unusual odor is detected or if smoke or fire comes out of the equipment, immediately turn the
power OFF.
Even in the cases other than the above, fully observe safety precautions.
If any PC board shall be replaced, refer to P. 9-1 “9. REPLACEMENT OF PC BOARDS”.

[ 1 ] General description
The purpose of collecting debug log data is to acquire the information needed for analyzing problems
by following the procedure below only when a phenomenon requiring an investigation has occurred
during the MFP's operation. If such a phenomenon occurs, you can collect debug log data into a USB
device by inserting it into the MFP and operating the buttons on the control panel.
Notes: Precautions for collecting debug log data with a USB device
• Be sure to obtain the customer’s agreement before you collect the setting information of the MFP into a
USB device.
• Debug log data to be collected include the internal behavior of the MFP, job histories, memory usage
information, etc. in binary data.
• Since the collected setting information of the MFP is output in a CSV format, handle and manage it with
care.
• Manage the collected setting information of the MFP properly to avoid loss or its leaking.
• Do not use the collected setting information of the MFP for purposes other than the enhancement of
maintenance, product quality or services.
• If the customer requests the presentation of the data, do so promptly.
• Do not remove the USB device while data are being stored.
When the debug logs are collected, do so also for the information from 1 to 4 below since investigation
may be difficult using only the debug logs.
1. Precaution
Be sure to obtain the customer’s agreement before you collect debug log data.

• “BIOS MODE” appears on the control panel as shown below and the MFP stops operating.
• Once this appears, it will not disappear even after the power is turned OFF and then back ON.
Fig.8-27
Notes:
“*BIOS MODE*” is displayed on the upper line, and “Date and firmware version” and “WAIT
FIRMWARE UPDATE” are alternately displayed on the lower line.
[ 2 ] Countermeasure
First, reinstall the system ROM using the PC update tool. Then reinstall the engine ROM and Fax ROM
using the PC update tool or a USB device.
Procedure:
(1) While “BIOS MODE” is being displayed, connect the MFP and PC with a USB cable.
(2) Reinstall the system ROM using the PC update tool.
(3) After the reinstallation is completed, turn OFF the power of the MFP.
(4) Next, reinstall the engine ROM and the FAX ROM.
Refer to P. 11-2 “11.2 Firmware Updating with USB Device”
Refer to P. 11-5 “11.3 Firmware Updating with PC Update Tool”
(5) After the reinstallation is completed, turn OFF the power of the MFP and disconnect the USB
cable or the USB device. Turn ON the power of the MFP and check that it starts correctly.
[ 1 ] Phenomenon
The bottom margin may disappear and the image is sometimes missing if an A4-size original is copied
to an A3-size sheet by enlarging the size.
The range of the bottom margin at actual-size copying is 2.0 mm +/- 1.0 mm (measured value).
However, if this tolerance is located in the minus direction (bottom margin: 1 mm or 0 mm), this
phenomenon will easily occur.
[ 2 ] Countermeasure
When this phenomenon has occurred during enlargement copying, adjust the image dimension using
the following procedure.
Procedure:
(1) Perform image dimensional adjustment (bottom margin adjustment) by aligning the value to the
center one (2.0 mm).
* The value must be aligned to the center one. No tolerance value +/- 1.0 mm is included.
Refer to P. 6-23 “[H] Bottom margin”
(2) Adjust the secondary scanning data laser writing start position by aligning the value to the center
one (52 mm) in 05-4058 (drawer) and 05-4061 (bypass tray).
* The value must be aligned to the center one. No tolerance value +/- 0.5 mm is included.
Refer to P. 6-13 “[D] Secondary scanning data laser writing start position” 8
[ 1 ] Phenomenon
When the APS mode is selected and an original is scanned after it has been placed on the original
glass, the automatic paper size detection sometimes works incorrectly.
• When copying: “SET CORRECT DRAWER. PRESS [START]” is displayed even though the size of
the set paper and that of the original is the same.
• When scanning/fax: A scan/fax job is sent with a size larger than the one for the original.
[ 2 ] Cause
The original size is detected incorrectly caused by lights from a ceiling lighting which directly applying to
the CIS sensor.
The original size detection function detects the width of an original by lighting the optical source while
the original cover is being closed.
During scanning of the original size while the original cover is being closed, lights from a lighting device
sometimes directly apply to the CIS sensor through an area which is not covered by the original. As a
result, the size may be detected as one larger than the actual one.
• A4 series: No misdetection occurs with A3 and A4 originals. A size larger than the actual one may
be detected with A4-R, A5-R, B4, B5, B5-R, 8K, 16K and 16K-R originals.
• LT series: No misdetection occurs with LT and LD originals. A size larger than the actual one may be
detected with ST, ST-R, LT-R and LG originals.

[ 3 ] Countermeasure
Misdetection will occur caused by lights being applied to the area indicated by the red dot.
Be sure to locate the equipment in a place where no ceiling lights are installed above the area within 50
cm around the red dot. (The area indicated by the red frame below shows the prohibited zone.)
If a concealed lighting is used, be sure to adjust it so that lights from it are not directly applied to the
area indicated by the red dot.
For the 2329A/2829A model, this phenomenon can be solved by increasing the adjustment value of the
original detection timing in the self-diagnostic code without moving the equipment's installation position.
Refer to P. 6-36 “6.7.2 Adjustment of Start Timing for Original Detection <2329A/2829A only>”

Important:
• Only the USB device which meets the following conditions should be used for updating. Be careful since
updating with any device other than the above is never guaranteed.
- A USB device which complies with the following standards regulated by USB-IF (USB
Implementers Forum)
Class number: 8 (=08h) (Mass-storage class)
Sub-class number: 6 (=06h) (SCSI transfer command set)
Protocol number: 80 (=50h) (Bulk-Only)
* Most common USB devices are complied with the specification above and can be used
for updating. However, the operation in all the Multi Functional Digital Systems is not
necessarily guaranteed since the most of these devices are developed based on the
use in PC environment (Windows or Macintosh). Therefore, confirm thoroughly that the
device is operational in the equipment for which the updating will be performed when
purchasing the device.
• The data file for updating is stored in the model specific folder.
Never change the model specific folder name since it is used for discriminating the data file when the
updating data files for multiple models are stored in the USB device.
• Store the model specific folder in the root directory of the USB device.
• The USB device complied with USB1.1 and USB2.0 can be used for updating. However, the update is
performed in the speed of USB1.1 when the device complied with USB2.0 is used.
• Do not update the firmware by any storage device other than a flash memory (such as a USB connection
type memory card reader, CD/DVD drive or hard disk) since it is never guaranteed.
(1) Connect the USB device to a PC and write the model specific folder in which the data file is
stored.
• Confirm the model specific folder name and data file name before writing the data
( P. 11-2 “11.2 Firmware Updating with USB Device”).
(3) Connect the USB device [1] to the USB port [2].

COMPLETED
Fig.11-2
Notes:
• The firmware update operation cannot be canceled when it is in progress.
• Do not perform any other operations while the firmware is being updated.
• If the USB device is not recognized normally, “USB NOT DETECTED” will be displayed. In this case,
turn OFF the power of the equipment, reconnect the USB device properly, and then restart the
procedure from step (3).
