Product : imageRUNNER 4570 series Title : E000
Error :
There were several symptoms:
1st symptom was an intermittent error code of E000, sometimes the machine would run as many as 20k before the problem would re-occur.
2nd symptom was the fixing film could be caked with toner.
3rd and most common symptom was that the latch would catch when opening the Main Right Side Door, this can be remedied by adjusting the cover that can interfere with the fuser release (1 screw ) (this cover is added when installing the internal finisher). The common mistake in the field is to bend this latch instead of adjusting the cover.
Workaround :
Problem was that the latch that releases and applies pressure to the fixing film had been bent causing this mechanism to work erratically (proper and improper pressure when the Main Right side door was closed ).
Solution was to replace the latch which is formally called the Hook Holder Unit;

Error :
When the machine powers up the E001 error code is displayed but cannot be reset. (Note: The reset procedure for an E001 code is COPIER>FUNCTION>CLEAR>ERR)
Workaround :
In this case, the Main Power Supply PCB Assembly was replaced. The machine was powered up and the E001 code was able to be reset. The part number for the Main Power Supply Assembly is FM2-0260-000.
Remember, if the fixing unit circuitry has an open or a short, the code may not reset. Be sure to confirm the fixing unit wiring and try resetting the code before replacing the Main Power Supply Assembly
Product : imageRUNNER 2270 / 2870 / 3570 / 4570 Title : E004 Error Code
Problem :
The imageRUNNER 2270 / 2870 / 3570 / 4570 displays an E004 code. Replacement of the fuser assembly and clearing of the error code in service mode resolves the issue. After approx. one day of operation the E004 code returns. Inspection of the fuser reveals that the ceramic heater element has cracked into two or more pieces with apparent arcing from the heater element.
Solution :
To resolve this reoccuring error code it is necessary to cut all the wire ties on the wire harness running from the fuser assembly to the DC-CON PCB and Power Supply.

Error :
E014-0001 was indicated upon start-up or when pressing the Start button. E014-0001 can be an indication of a faulty fixing motor. E014-0001 can be displayed when the drive detection signal is absent for 2 sec although detection is executed every 100msec after the start of motor rotation.
Workaround :
1. Check the fixing unit for binds or broken parts.
2. Re-fit J311, and J319 connectors of the DC Controller PCB.
3. Re-fit J1009 and J1011 connectors of the fixing motor.
4. If the symptom still occurs, replace the fixing motor with a new one.
The part number for the Fixing Motor is FK2-0367-000.
Product : imageRUNNER 2270 / 2870 Title : E020 Error Code
Problem :
E020 when copying. The sub-hopper motor M12 would not turn on in service mode or when running copies. As a result, the developing assembly would run out of toner. Tried replacing the Hopper Assembly, Developing Assembly and DC Controller with no change.
Solution :
Replace the Controller Power Supply PCB. This PCB provides 3.3v, 5v, 13v and 24v to the DC Controller. The part number is FM2-2764-000. It is item 15, shown below, and is located behind the Accessories Power Supply.
Product : imageRUNNER 2230 / 2830 / 3530 / 2270 / 2870 / 3570 / 4570 Title :E020-0000
Error :
The E020-0000 Error Code will occur if there is an absence of toner detected by the Developing Assembly Toner Level Sensor and a presence of toner is detected by the Hopper Toner Level Sensor. The error code will be displayed after a specified period of time with the sensors detecting this condition.
Workaround :
The output of the sensors can be checked at the DC Controller PCB. In this case, the sensors output indicated toner in all areas of the developing assembly. The DC Controller was replaced and resolved the E020-0000 Error Code.
Product : imageRUNNER 2230 / 2270 / 2830 / 2870 / 3025 / 3030 / 3035 / 3045 / 3530 / 3570 / 4570 Title : E020-0000 Error Code
Error :
E020-0000 Error Code will occur if there is an absence of toner detected by the Developing Assembly Toner Level Sensor and a presence of toner is detected by the Hopper Toner Level Sensor.
Workaround :
In this case, a small piece of plastic from the toner bottle was found lodged in the developer unit auger. With the auger blocked, the toner would not properly move to the sub hopper. The plastic piece was removed and the toner in the developer unit was vacuumed out to prevent further contamination. Inspection of the toner motor drive and the auger mechanism for any foreign object damage is recommended before installing a new toner bottle.
Product : iR 4570 series Title : E024
Error :
E024-0001 Error Code: The toner level sensor has an open-circuit or is not connected.
Workaround :
E024-0001 Error Code:
Toner gets in the developing assembly toner sensor (TS1) and may be shorting out the sensor. Blow out any toner in the sensor wiring and check to see if measure resolved the symptom. The toner level sensor has an open-circuit, replace the toner sensor.
Toner Sensor FK2-0358
However, re-attachment of the sensor also solves the symptom.
When the symptom has occurred, make the following selections in service mode [COPIER > I/O > DC-CON] and check the setting for the bit1 of [P021]. If the setting is "1", re-attach the toner sensor

Title : E024 on an imageRUNNER 2230/2270/3025 series machine.
Error :
E024 on an imageRUNNER 2230/2270/3025 series machine.
Workaround :
One problem found has been the toner sensor scraper blade in the developer not making contact with the surface of the toner sensor. To check the toner sensor scraper blade first set up a work area. Lay out several sheets of 11 x17 paper on the work surface. Disassembling the developer is a messy job. Remove the upper cover of the developer and then rotate the developer in a counter clock wise direction. Basically the cylinder should rotate so the toner is scraped off of the cylinder by the developer blade.
If it is rotated in the wrong direction a large amount of toner will adhere to the developer cylinder and makes a mess.
The toner sensor is located on the on the outside of the developer and part of it goes through the wall of the developer unit.
Product : imageRUNNER 2230/2270/2830/3870/3530/3570/4570 Title : E064-0002
Error :
The machine displays an E064-0002. The machine creates solid black copies/internal test prints from edge to edge without any blanking.
Workaround :
Check the physical connections of the primary contacts. The primary drum contact is located on the drum and makes contact with an HVT metal contact on the machine's rear. The drum's primary contact tab can be easily bent or deformed during drum replacement or removal. If it becomes bent it can cause solid black copies creating a voltage leak also causing an E064-0002. Before replacing the high voltage power supply check the contact tabs first. Reshape the contacts or replace the drum.

Error :
E064-0003
Workaround :
The E064 code with a 0003 sub code can occur if Toner gets on the Developing Bias Tab. If the Toner is getting on the Developing Bias Tab you should check the seal on top of the Developer.

Error :
The E531 error code indicates an issue with the stapler motor or stapler home position detection sensor.
In this occurrence of the E531, the stapler will drive to the rear staple position, paper will accumulate in the operation tray and generate the E531 at the time of staple. Staple assembly, staple harness ribbon cable and the finisher controller were replaced, the finisher continued to error with the E531.
Workaround :
It was found that MSW104, staple safety switch was not properly actuated. The spring on the white actuator was missing.
This switch cuts 24v to the stapler motor M11 and is actuated when the swing guide is forced in the maximum open position.
A quick way to check MSW104 is from the finisher controller at J714 pins 1 & 2. Pin 1 should read 24v constant and pin 2 will read 24v when MSW104 is actuated, and 0v when MSW104 is opened.
If pin 1 reads 24v and pin 2 reads 0v whether MSW104 is actuated or open, replace MSW104.
MSW104 part number is FH7-6379-000
Note: Due to the range of Finishers covered in this Knowledge Base article, the safety switch maybe addressed by a different identification number. Please check the related Service Manuals & Parts Catalog for correct identification

Product : imageRUNNER 2230/2270/2830/2870/ 3530 /3570/ 4570 Title : E674-0008
Error :
Although the error code of E674 is documented in the Service Manual, the sub code of 0008 is not. In this case, the machine was displaying an E674-0008. The Service Manual describes that an E674 is related to a communication fault between the multi line fax pcb and the Main Controller pcb. When looking in Service Mode>Copier>Display>Version>Fax, the machine displayed, a "??#" for the version of the fax. The machine in this case was flashed. Other symptoms experienced were, no dial tone when using the "On-Hook" key using the fax function, the machine could not print any internal/external prints, the machine could not complete the "forced shut down procedure" and would "lock up". Although these symptoms were experienced, the machine was able to copy without problems.
Workaround :
Following the Service Manual's instructions, the multi line fax pcb assembly was disassembled. Upon inspecting the unit, it was noticed that one of the ribbon cables on the G3 fax control pcb was not seated properly. After reseating the ribbon cables on the G3 fax control pcb, the machine stopped displaying this error code. The fax functionality then returned and the machine stopped exhibiting the other symptoms listed above. Checking and reseating the ribbon cables located on the G3 fax control pcb resolved the issue.
Related Service Manual error code information for an E674 code is:
1. sub code 0001- An attempt to set mode for the fax device has failed
Remarks for items to check are:
1. Check the connection of the cable between the fax control PCB (2 line) and the main controller PCB.
2. Replace the ROM DIMM of the fax control PCB (2-line).
3. Check ribbon cables within the fax pcb assembly.
4. Replace the fax control PCB (2 line).
5. Replace the main controller PCB.

Error :
A new boot rom was inserted into a slot and the machine was turned on. The E733 came up on the display after a few minutes.
Workaround :
In this case, the boot rom was mistakenly placed in the slot located on the DC Controller. The Boot Rom slot on the Main Controller is the same size as the DCON Dimm slot on the DC Controller. Hastily replacing this chip without confirming the correct slot will damage the chip. NOTE: If you are installing a network boot rom and it is damaged, you will need to contact the TSC for the replacement procedure.

Considered Buying Your Own Copier?
Does this sound Familiar! ... So you are getting tired of running down to your local copy shop. You get in your car and drive down to make a few copies, pay your 5 to 10 cents per copy then drive back to your office only to realize that you still need more copies made. What an inconvenience of time lost running back and forth.
With shopping the local copier dealers, you are shocked to learn that a new copier can cost from $2,000 to $25,000. Your next stop is the local office supply or superstore, which offer the smaller PC grade type of machine starting at about $400 up to about $2,000.
Considerations When Buying a Photocopier Machine
There are four primary considerations when buying a copier; 1) how many copies you will be producing monthly, 2) what features you require, 3) space and machine size requirements, and 4) how soon you will outgrow the machine.
Other important considerations are, the reliability of the machine, cost per copy, and how many copies the consumable parts (black toner, cyan toner, yellow toner, magenta toner, black developer, cyan developer, yellow developer, magenta toner, fuser oil or fuser unit and drums) yield and their replacement cost.
Which Brand is Best?
With our experience working on all makes & models from AB Dick to Xerox we have found that... "The Golden Rule of copier buying basically says that the factories that make the best Photography equipment make the best copiers. *Canon *Xerox *Sharp *Ricoh and *Minolta." Coastal Business Supplies is a leading supplier of Canon toner, Xerox toner, Sharp toner, Ricoh toner and Minolta toner.
Understanding Photocopier Machine Grades
There are three basic grades or classes of photocopiers. The first grade of copier is the PC (Personal Copier) grade that is often sold in office supply and department stores. The second and generally most preferable grade of copier is the standard Business Grade machine. Next there is the Commercial ReproGraphic Grade machine that is primarily designed for high volume users who produce 50,000 to 100,000 copies monthly.
The PC Grade Copier:
Most PC grade machines are sold by your local office superstore. They are designed to produce a maximum of 500 to 1,500 copies monthly. When buying a PC Grade Machine; The convenience of a new small PC grade copier may soon be over shadowed by the lack of features, capacity, high cost per copy, and lack of available on-site service.
Pro's and Con's of the PC copier. The advantages are 1) "instant warm-up" that means when you turn the machine on it is ready to make a copy within one minute, 2) operator replaceable drum / copy cartridges, and 3) low purchase price. Now lets get to the minuses, 1) slow...only 5-10 copies per minute (CPM), 2) high cost per copy aprox. 7 cents, 3) lack of available features and paper sizes 4) lack of on-site service.
In event of any repairs needed, most of these machines are not on-site serviceable and are shipped off to "Repair Depots" resulting in a loss of your copier (possibly for several weeks) during the repair period. However we would like to note that PC grade machines in general enjoy an excellent record for reliability and customer satisfaction.
* A note about how copy cost / toner yield is figured: Cost per copy / toner yield is figured on a percentage of how much toner is applied to a letter size copy. If all the toner applied to your letter sized copy is condensed down to a solid block / field it would equal a percentage of the size of the copy. Thus this "toner field" is the quotient in which cost per copy / stated yield is based upon.
In regards to PC type machines, the "stated yield" or copy cost is generally based upon a 5% field per letter-sized copy. If the stated yield of the Drum Cartridge says 2,000 copies, average yield will be more like 1,200. Reason being, most documents copied run an average of 8%-15% field. And with copying any graphics you can easily be up to a 25% to 50% field. These machines even for low volume users can rapidly become cost prohibitive to operate.
The Business Grade Copier:
The standard Business Grade Machine for most users is the best choice. This is the most common grade of machine. Features and machine size will vary; they can range from a simple desktop model to a large stand-alone machine. Business grade machines are generally recognized by a low cost per copy and the availability of "Full System" options. Average cost per copy is 1 cent (includes paper & toner).
Common features are R/E, ADF, and sorter. These machines are designed to produce from 1 up to 50,000 copies monthly. New purchase prices can range from $2,000 to $15,000. A Business Grade machine will give you years and hundreds of thousands of copies worth of service. This grade of machine truly represents the best overall value.
The Commercial Grade Copier:
The commercial grade copier will generally include many of the full system features and produce 50 plus copies per minute. Differences that separate this type of machine verses the business grade machine are 1) monthly copy volume, 2) lower maintenance (generally required only every 100,000 copies) with service costing no more than business grade copiers, and 3) low cost per copy.
The minus to this type of machine is the slightly larger size over business grade. New purchase prices can range from $25,000 to $40,000. However good used or recondition machines can be purchased for the price of a business grade machine. With low maintenance cost and low cost per copy, machines like this can become quite attractive.
Buying A Pre-Owned Copier
Purchasing a pre-owned copier will help you avoid that immediate 40-60% drop in resale value which happens the moment you take delivery of that brand new photocopier. With thousands of well-maintained copiers coming "Off Lease" and or being repossessed monthly purchasing a pre-owned copier maybe your best choice. Lots of great equipment available at a fraction of the new cost.
There are three basic sources in which to buy a pre-owned copier from. One is the franchised dealer, another is from a private party, and the third is from an Independent Photocopier Sales & Service Company whom maybe your best and wisest choice. They generally offer Fully Serviced or Re-Conditioned Copy Machines at a fraction of the cost of new equipment and generally include a 30-90 Day Warranty.
An Independent Dealer will generally offer better prices on copy machines, service, and supplies. Most of these independent dealers buy their machines from Wholesalers and Leasing Companies and then fully service or recondition them before resale. These "Independents" generally select only machines for resale that are in above average condition and are known not to have been produced with factory design defects.
You may however decide to browse the Sunday classifieds noticing for sale at an affordable price. Your mind immediately asks why are these people selling their machine. Well, in all probability it will be one of the following reasons, 1) their upgrading to a newer machine or one that has added features, 2) they no longer need a photocopier, or 3) the machine is problematic / lemon. Regarding the first and second reason, you may want to strike a deal.
Regarding the above third reason, does the machine have a good track record? To find out the status of a certain brand/model copier, you may think of calling that Franchised Brand Dealer. A typical answer from them in regards to the before mentioned question would be yes. In most cases it's likely you'll be calling them (the same dealer) for future service. This therefore allows the dealer a perfect opportunity to sell you the profitable and almighty "Service Contract". Call an "Independent Dealer" to get a less biased answer.
It is recommended that when buying a pre-owned copier you always get a warranty. Some sellers may offer you a lower "as-is / no warranty" price, its your decision...do you like gambling? Obtaining a 30 day / 3,000 copy warranty allows a sufficient period for evaluation of machine condition.
When purchasing a copier it is always much cheaper not to purchase a supply contract. Supply contracts offer supplies for free but charge a per copy charge. This charge can range from .08 to .20 cents. A Business grade copier costs about .01 per copy (including your supplies). This is substantial cost savings to you and can be used to pad your profit margins.
Things to look for when Buying a Pre-Owned Copier
Before purchasing it is important to check the overall condition of the machine. Regarding the age of the copier best values are often obtained with a machine age of 5 to 8 years old. Parts and Copier supplies are generally available for up to 15 years after the date of machine manufacture (do not let anybody tell you otherwise).
The four primary indicators for judging the condition of a pre-owned machine are:
1. Copy Quality, you are looking for a good copy with solid black toner color / color toner and a nice clear background. This indicates the general condition of the Drum, Fuser Rollers, Developer, and overall condition of the machine.
2. Lack of Paper Jams, run several copies through the various cassettes, and if applicable also the Sorter, Auto-Doc Feeder, and Duplexer unit. This checks the condition of Paper Feed Tires / Rollers, feed mechanisms, and the accompanying clutches.
3. Overall Cleanliness, if the machine is clean inside and out there is a good chance that the machine has been recently serviced.
4. Copy Count/Mileage, is not always a good way to judge the condition. Generally speaking you can use a simple formula to calculate a machines lifespan. Take the maximum factory rated monthly copy volume x 12 (months)=A, take A (Annual max. rated copy volume) x 5 (years)=L (maximum copy volume Lifespan). In this author's opinion you should seek to purchase a machine with no less than 50% of Service Life (L) remaining.
A Note About Service Contracts and "Per Call Service"
A dealer's bread and butter is in selling service contracts. A Service Contract Agreement is basically a 100% insurance policy that you have paid up front 100% of the cost of all the likely repairs and service if the machine were to totally self-destruct. Most users do not benefit from this economically unless they have a problematic machine or are extremely high volume users.
On "Per Call Charge" basis for service, some unscrupulous dealers often sell the most profitable or expensive parts first, then work down to replacing lower level parts that may actually be the source of the problem. It is not uncommon to be sold a drum that costs hundreds of dollars when a simple adjustment is just is needed.
Also when a service tech works on your machine have them explain to you what they are doing and why. Have them leave the old parts with you, this insures that the parts taken from your machine are not going to be re-installed into someone else's machine that's under one of their service contracts.
