Trouble type | C2557: Abnormally low toner density detected black TCR sensor |
Rank | B |
Trouble detection condition | When sampling data is determined in TC ratio calculation control, TCR sensor output is higher than a predetermined value for a predetermined number of times in a row even though there is toner in the sub hopper. |
Trouble isolation | – |
Relevant electrical parts | -Developing unit/K -Toner cartridge/KPH unit -Toner empty sensor/K (PS31) -Toner cartridge motor/K (M25) -Toner supply motor/K (M6) -Expansion control board (EXCB) -CPU board (CPUB) -Base board (BASEB) |
Procedure
- Perform image troubleshooting procedure if image density is low.
- Reinstall the developing unit/K.
- Reinstall the toner cartridge/K.
- Check the connector between the developing unit/K-relay CN252-relay CN25-EXCB CN4EX for proper connection and correct as necessary.
- Check the connector between EXCB CN1EX-BASEB CN11E for proper connection and correct as necessary.
- Check the connector between EXCB CN2EX-BASEB CN12E for proper connection and correct as necessary.
- Check CPUB for proper installation and correct as necessary.
- M25 operation check
- Control signal: EXCB CN11EX-1 to 4
- Location of electrical component: 15-P
