Description
LS-501/502, abnormal noise.

Solution
CAUSE: If the clip ring keeps rotating while touching the outer rim of the bearing, the clip wears and detaches from the roller shaft. The bearing then
becomes loose and the roller shaft is damaged. If this happens, abnormal noise may occur from the bearing. Additionally, the roller shaft becomes damaged
further if the tension of the belt that transfers drive to the roller is excessive.
A Bearing
B Clip ring
C Roller
D Belt

SOLUTION: Replace the roller with the modified roller (p/n 15AV46040 is the original style and p/n 15AV46041 is the modified).
Notes :
1. The modified roller is more durable and the ring has been changed from a clip to e-clip to prevent detachment. Therefore, after replacing the roller with the
modified one, use the recommended e-clip (p/n 00Z670606). It is not possible to fit the original clip ring on the modified roller.
2. CAUTION : When installing the belt ( D ), be careful not to adjust the tension in excess, so that it does not exceed the tension spring load. Otherwise,
bearing damage may reoccur.

Description
SD-501, after the Trimmer frame reinforcement kit was installed, over a period of time, the paper adjustment unit roller guidesbecomedamaged.

Solution
CAUSE: By applying the countermeasure against the frame damage, load added during trimming operation is concentrated on the roller guides, causing
fatigue breakage.

Description
The Trimmer frame may break under certain conditions. This is most likely to occur when a large amount of trimming is done AND the number of sheets to be
trimmed is relatively small (less than 40 sheets or so).

Solution
CAUSE: When a small number of sheets are trimmed, the bundle press pressure can exceed the design value, creating a heavier-than-expected stress on
the frame. When this happens repeatedly, metal fatigue occurs, resulting in fractured frame parts.

SOLUTION: The thickness of the frame metal was changed during production, resulting in greater inherent strength, and a spring was added to reduce the
bundle press pressure when trimming a small number of sheets. A reinforcement kit is available to strengthen earlier trimmers by adding the spring and
bracing the frame. Please see attached Bulletin Number 6361 for more details and installation instructions. To viewthe PDF, Adobe Reader® must be

bizhub PRO C6500P Controller - no or slow print, scan failure, garbled data, lockup
Solution ID TAUS0656888EN* Solution Usage 6

Description
When printing a calibration page from ColorWise™ Pro tools or the MFP LCD, the page does not print. There is nomessage on the printer orcontroller that
indicates the job was sent.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. There is a mismatch between the default paper media settings on thecontroller and the paper drawer settings on the engine.
TheFiery® controllersare configured with adefault paper setting of color specific, white, 81-105gm2. If the paper drawer of theengine is not set to these same
settings, the job will not print until the drawer is configured to match these settings. There will not be an indication on thecontroller panel and the job will also
not show up in the job list on the engine. The only place that the problem can be observed from is Command WorkStation™.
To have all jobs print, based on the drawer settings by default, enter thecontroller "Launch Configure" through a web browser and edit the PS settings for
paper type "PDL => PS". Paper weight should be set to "Printers Default".
Note :When printing aconfiguration page from the controller, the paper weight will show as "0" for this setting.

2. Incorrect DIP switch setting. Image stabilization control has been disabled on the mainbody(DIP switch 24-2 set to1).
Enable image stabilization by setting dipswitch 24-2 to 0 . Toenable image stabilization perform the following:
a. Enter Service mode.
b. Select System Setting.
c. Select Software SW Setting.
d. Set DIPSW 24-2=0.
e. Exit Service mode.

Solution
CAUSE:It has been determined thatthe IC-408 Fiery® patch 1-15RA85is causing this issue.This patch may have been installed during arecent Fiery® auto
update.EFI has removed this patch from its auto update servers as of 3/3/2010, so this issue should not occur via auto updates after this date.
Note : IC-303 & IC-305 are not affected by this.

SOLUTION:Print a Fiery® configuration page and check the installed patch list. If patch 1-15RA85 is listed then IC-408 Fiery® system software needs to be
reloaded.

IC-408 powers down after booting.

Solution
CAUSE: The IC-408 with system code version 1.0. is installed on an unsupported configuration (Professional configuration), OR version 1.0A or higher is
loaded but unsupported PRO series finisher is installed

SOLUTION: The IC-408 must be updated to system code version 1.0A or higher to allow operation of the SD-501, RU-503, and/or the PF-701. All other PRO
series finishers are not supported when using the Fiery® IC-408.

bizhub PRO C6500P Controller - no or slow print, scan failure, garbled data, lockup
Description
Slow printing or locking up when printing multiple print jobs or large PDF files (500 pages+).
Most noticeable when using a NearStar® application.

Solution
When the machine is printing multiple print jobs,it will cycle between the print jobs slowing the machinedown, and if the queue fills up enough, it could "lock
up".
The reason the machine cycles between print jobs is becauseitchecks which printer language (PCL or PostScript) the next print job is using.
Toprevent this from happening,the machine needs to identfy which PDL to use.To accomplish this, please perform the following settings:
Utility a User Settings a Printer Settings a Basic Settings a PDL Settings a thenchoose PostScript or PCL (depending on what driver is being used)

For the bizhub 200/250/350/222/282/362 follow these steps:

Utility a Printer Settings a PDL Set

For the bizhubPRO 950 and 1050efollow these steps:

Description
Printing appears to be very slow and the controller has high disk and CPU activity.

Solution
CAUSE: Secure Eraseis enabled.

SOLUTION: Secure Erase is enabled insetup under Server => Jobs. If enabled, it will securely erase all print jobs by rewriting over the data 3 times. This
requires constant disk access and CPU utilization and will significantly slow down the printing capabilities of the controller.
Secure Erase is required in government or other environments that handle sensitive orconfidential material.

CAUSE:Customer is using FreeForm2 to create masters for individual pages.This function was never supported by Konica Minolta products;even though this
technique may have worked on older controllers, it was never really supported.

Since the OS was rewritten for many of the new printers, any programming (Feature) holes that existed in the previoussystem code, wereplugged;therefore,
this function will not work.

When installing a new IC-303, nothing can be setup from the front panel of the controller. Howis the controller configured?

Solution
The IC-303 is configured using 2 different methods.
1. After the controller has initialized completely and is connected to the MFP, a controller button will be available under the Machine settings on theMFP LCD
panel. This button will allow basic funtions to be configured under setup. Server Name, system Date/Time, TCP/IP settings, Ethernet speed, enabling Remote
Desktop and Enabling web services are the basic functions that can be configured.
Ensure that Web services are enabled as the remainder of the configuration will have to be done from the web-based configure utility.

2. After a TCP/IP address has been configured and Web services are enabled, launch configure from a Web browser and configure the remaining settings on
the IC-303.

After updating the IC-408 to version 1.1, unable to print andfinishing options and features not available.

Solution
CAUSE:Correct PPD has not been loaded in Adobe® PageMaker® or PPD has not been assigned to printer in PageMaker® print dialog box.

SOLUTION:To correct this:

1. Remove the EF9M9A90 and the EF9M9090 PPDs from the C:\Program Files\Adobe\PageMaker 7.0\RSRC\USENGLSH\ppd4 folder.
2.Copy and paste the EF9M9A91.ppd from the extracted IC-408 version 1.1 print driver into the PPD4 folder.
3.Reboot the system then open PageMaker® file (File=> print => select the IC-408 printerthen select PAPER). This should now make the DOCUMENT
button available.
4.Select DOCUMENTand change the PPD to Fiery® X3ETY2 65_55C-KM.
5.Press ENTER on keyboard. This may cause job to print but the PPD will now be assigned as the default PPD to use for this printer.
Note :Once the PPD is selected in the Document screen all the finishing features become available andthe remainder of the steps are just to set the PPD to
that printer so the PPD does not have to be selected everytime.

RU-503/RU-504, when printing on 200g/m2 or more thick paper, the "scratches" appear on the solid part of the image.

Solution
CAUSE: At the paper path of finishing options, including RU, the thick paper contacts with the steel plate or gate. As the result, fine "scratches" appearin the
face-down direction.

SOLUTION: On the steel plate of RU, attach PET sheets to reduce the contact area between paper and paper path so that scratch is reduced.
However, this solution is effective only for the face-up exit and not effective for the face-down exit or duplex printing. Also, this solution is effective against the
"scratches" caused by the RU but not effective for the "scratches" generated by lower stream option.

Description
Small blank area appears or color registration error is visible with text or fine lines.

Solution
CAUSE: When using heavy paper (256gsm or more) or thick paper, the intermediate transfer belt rotation speed is changed when the paper passes the 2nd
transfer unit.It causes the color registration error at the first transfer where the toner on the photoconductor drum is transferred to the intermediate transfer
belt.The color registration error appearing at thefirst position depends on the distance between the 2nd transfer roller and drum for each color (see attached

bizhub PRO C6500P Image delay, advance, shift or skew
file).
From 495mm of the 1st sheet or from the 2nd sheet, the color registration error of each color overlaps and is visible for all colors.

SOLUTION: To reduce the intermediate transfer belt speed change, increase the line speed:
1. From COPY or MACHINE screen, select [Paper Setting].
2.Select arbitrary tray.Then select [Change].
3.At the [Weight], select the lighter weight than paper actually used. Asa rough indication, 1/1 speed= 105gsm or less and2/3 speed for 106 to 209 gsm.
If the above setting change is performed, fusing time is reduced and fusing failure may occur.The setting should be used carefully.

Iffusing failure occurs after trying the above, change the fusing temperature:
1. From COPY or MACHINE screen, select [Paper Setting].
2. Select arbitrary tray. Then select [Change].
3. Select [Process Adj.] then press [Next] button. For the Upper Roller Temperature (Print) and Lower Roller Temperature (Print), then enter larger value.
If the fusing roller temperature is changed, paper turns wavy or blisters oncoated paper may occur.Additionally, depending on the paper, the registration error
cannot be solved completely.If the improvement level is not enough, please request that the customeruses another paper type.

Description
Low density/light copies.

Solution
CAUSE: The perception of density is largely subjective; consequently individual interpretations may occasionally disagree with measured results or other
individuals’ evaluations, even when the measured values are within the machine’s design specification. The issue is compounded by the nature of
electrostatic printing where some degree of variation is inherent, especially when comparing it to traditional offset press printing.

SOLUTION: Acolor registration unit is available for use when a customer believes that the density is not adequate. Themodified unit contains a different
gamma sensor which can help with this issue. It is recommended for use only in those cases where a customer requires greater density than can otherwise
be achieved through standard adjustment procedures. It should be installed only under the following conditions:

The color settings are within the published specifications.

The customer perceives insufficient density, especially in large solid fill areas.

How to create a new substitute color inColorWise Pro Tools.

Solution
Substitute color works with color recipes in RGB and CMYK.It does not use the Pantone® spot color numbers, but you can look up the recipe.

You will need to know the color recipe that you want to substitute. Pitstop inspector or another program can measure color recipes.

Record the recipe values for CMYK or the RGB values.

Open Command WorkStation™.
Select ColorWise Pro Tools.
Select Manage Color.
Select Spot-On® from the ColorWise™ Pro Tools window.
From the Select Output Profile menu, access the “Edit spot colors for this output profile” pull-down menu and choose the current default output profile.
The Select Output Profile window opens. (Fiery 65-CKM).
The Spot On menu appears.
From the Edit menu, choose New Substitute Group.
The new substitute group appears with the default name “Untitled1”.
Double-click on the Untitled1 and rename it.
Highlight the renamed color group.
From the Edit menu, select New Substitute Color.
In the Add Substitute Color menu, select RGB (0-100%) or CMYK (0-100%) and enter the values from the recipe that you wanted to substitute.
In Tolerance, click the radio button next to Large (small +/- .25, Large +/- .50), and click OK.
The new substitute color now appears in the library list.
Default CMYK values appear to the right of the RGB recipe. The strength of the Spot-On feature results in its ability to calculate CMYK conversion values in
order to establish more accurate color matching in print.
Highlight the new substitute color in the library list and form the Edit menu choose Color Search.

Spot-On offers several ways to create alternate color recipes for CMYK conversion:
1. Printing patches of the target color and surrounding neighbors to perform a visual evaluation of the closet color match from the printed sheet. This is a
streamlined and efficient process.
2. Using a measurement instrument, such as the EFI ES-1000, to obtain an accurate measurement from an existing ink color sample.
3. Editing the substitute color table directly.
4. Double-click the Center Patch to edit the color table directly.
5. In the Set Center Patch Color menu you can select the new conversion recipe.
6. After processing with Spot-On, the original color will be changed to the new Substitute color.

Thick Paper BK mode setting.

Solution
Thick Paper BK mode setting is to reduce banding that occurs 230mm in from the lead edge when printing halftone images with thick paper stock.
Thick Paper BK Mode engages the first transfer rollers on each YMC colors and operates in color mode during printing in B/W mode.
Use Thick Paper BK mode in conjunction with 2nd Transfer Low setting in Paper Setting ? Process Adjustment ? 2nd Transfer Pressure.
Notes :
1. Use only for thick paper on whichbanding occurs.
2. Sinceprinting in B/W mode operates in color mode, the total counter counts in B/W and the maintenance counter counts in color. It does not develop YMC,
but the life of the developer is shortened since it agitates the developing unit.
3.Concerningcolor printing, after printing more than 1000 sheets in this mode toner scattering or blurred color image may occur.

To enable Thick Paper BK mode, perform the following:

1.Press the Utility button on theMFP and select #3 Machine Admin. Setting.
2. Select #6 Common Settings.
3. Pressthe Next button and select Thick Paper BK mode to ON.

How to install system code on the IC-408 through the Ethernet port or USB flash drive.

Solution
ETHERNET LOAD
Version 2.0 systemsoftware or higher can be run directly from the DVD;
1. Disconnect cables from Fiery® and power it down. Power downthe MFP using sub-switch.
2. Double-click on Fiery® Installer.exe.
3. Flip both DIP switches (one inch away from LED display on Fiery® - sometimes covered by gray tape).
4. Approve license screen and Ethernet connection screen.
5. TurnON the Fiery® power switch and wait 15 seconds or so until "FF" is seen on the Fiery® LED (green switch light must be ON). Within 2-3 minutes "1 of
12" will show on installer screen.
6. This will take 35-50 minutes.
7. Once "12 of 12" is done, with status bar not moving and "0KB" visible, click "Finish".
8. Ignore verbiage in installer, power down Fiery® using the AC switch, reset DIP switches to original, then power down the MFP using the main sub-switch.
9. Reconnect normal cables, power up the MFP, then the Fiery® AC switch making sure the green soft-switch light goes ON.
10. At this point it can take the Fiery® up to 60 minutes to complete self-install. When the Fiery® is done the "Controller" button on the MFP LCD is active
and "00" is seen on Fiery® LED.
11. Set up the Fiery® partially through the MFP interface, or via Web Configure (more settings).
Notes :

Video port is totally dead when monitor is connected to Fiery® VGA port.

When Fiery® is booted up, "00" is in LED display.

FLASH DRIVE LOAD

Preparation
PC must have a DVD drive and USB 2.0 port (remove USB devices prior to procedure). According to the manual, 6GB flash drive is minimum size, but a 5GB
drive will work. A 4GB drive may also work, but it has been reported that some features are not loaded as the result of this. BIOS on the PC must be set so
that DVD drive is bootable.
Procedure
1. Put flash tool version 3.11 CDROM into the PC drive and boot to it. Follow prompts to insert system DVD and flash drive; then select language.
2. Continue to follow prompts. DVD contents will copy to flash drive.
3. Load Fiery® with prepared flash drive:
a. PowerOFF sub-switch on the MFP and powerOFF Fiery® AC switch.
b. Plug in flash drive.
c. DIP switches do NOT have to be changed for this load method.
d. PowerON the Fiery® AC switch. If green light does not come on, push soft-switch until it does. Shortly, observe LED on flash drive itself sporadically
flashes.
e. When done (about 10 minutes), LED on Fiery® shows "FF" and stays there; flash drive ceases blinking.
f. PowerOFF Fiery® AC switch, wait at least 30 seconds, remove flash drive andreconnect cables.
g. Power ON the MFP sub-switch, then the Fiery®,watching to ensure green light comes on.
h. The Fiery® must self-configure for 45 minutes. Unfortunately, there is nothing, other than very intermittent Fiery® LED activity to show if anything is really
happening. Be patient and wait 45 minutes.
i. IMPORTANT - Power down the Fiery® andcompletely power down the MFP. Power up the MFP, wait for normalMFP screen to appear and then bring up
Fiery®, making sure green soft-switch light is ON. Within 3-5 minutes "Controller" button on LCD should be active.
Notes :

The documentation states that the controller button will appear after about 60 minutes. During testing, waiting 70+ minutes, "Controller" button never
appeared. But as soon as the controller and the MFP are powered up again, it does. Recommend following the above procedure (step i).

Flash drive and Fiery® LED behavior while transfer from flash drive to Fiery® (steps d and e above):
On initial power up, for about 20 seconds, there willbe rapid Fiery® LED changes and the flash drive will flash a few times. Then, Fiery® LED will count 00,
01, 02 ... 13, 14, FF(changing values about every 30 seconds or so). Once the flash drive stops blinking and Fiery® LED has not changed from "FF", transfer
is complete. The IC-408 Service Manual, pages 50-61, covers this procedure (see attached).

Description
How black and white versus color increment the machine counters.

Solution
The reason that many ofthe color printers will count a page as color, even though the page content looks like Black and White or Gray, is that many “Office”
applications create or use graphics using RGB data. Even though a graphic may be black, it uses RGB values of 0-0-0 to achieve black or will use equal
values of RGB to represent gray. As far asa Konica Minoltaprinter is concerned, this is color information and will therefore count the page as a color page.
This scenario applies to applications like Microsoft® OfficeWord, Excel and Publisher, to name a few. Higher end applications like Adobe®
PageMaker®/InDesign®/Illustrator® and Quark® typically use the CMYK color space.
A job can consist of just K (Black), with no CMY components. This will print as just black. If printing a gray shade from one of these applications, a halftone
screen would have to be used using just K or using equal values of CMYK, which would count as color.
Note : If the files have been converted to a PDF, Acrobat® 6 and7 Pro have built-in Preflighting tools under the “Advanced” menu. Preflighting the
document will provide detail of what color components each graphic is composed. Other add-ons, such as Enfocus© PitStop Professional will also provide the
same capabilities from within Acrobat®.

To create and perform scan to E-mail on the Creo® IC-304 version 2, perform the following:
1.From the Creo® workstation select File, Preferences and then Mail Services.
2.Enter the Outgoing Mail Server TCP/IP address (preferred) or the E-mail Server Name.
3.Enter the Attachment Max Size.
4.Enter a valid Administrator E-mail Address. Set it for Anonymous or Basic (authentication User ID and Password).
Note :After performing the above, the bizhub PRO C6500 Scan tab should set up a Box called IC-304 E-mail. Scan something to this box. You will need the
Remote Scan Application loaded on a workstation in order to retrieve the scanned image and to perform the Scan to E-mail.
5. Launch the Remote Scan Application.
6. Type in the Server Name or TCP/IP address and thenpress the Connect button.
7. Select the Scan box IC-304 (or one that you have already created and scanned to). Highlight the scanned file andpress the Send button.
8.Enter the From: and To: E-mail address, Subject and Text if desired and hit the Send button.
Note : If you getonly the URL link and have selected Send Scan as Attachment, the Attachment Max Size (Step 3) needs to be increased.

Unable to create scan boxes using Remote Scan software. The scan boxes do not appear at the Scan/HDD
CAUSE: The Creo® has been joined to the customer domain or has been signed-on toan account other than the operator account.

SOLUTION: Log onto the Creo® locally using the default account ( operator ) and password ( colorserver ).

Unable to scan to FTP or E-mail when using an IC-301 controller (bizhub PRO C500 only)
CAUSE: These options are not available when using an IC-301. Only a Fiery® controller will provide these scanning options.

SOLUTION: Scanning will need to be performed using the Remote Scan utility (provided on the User CD). Once the scans are retrieved with this utility, the
scans can then be manually E-mailedor moved to an FTP site.

How to create saddle-stitched booklets from Macintosh® OS 10.4x and Microsoft® Windows® XP.

Solution
The attached document details how to make a saddle-stitched booklet using the IC-303 print driver from Macintosh® OS 10.4x and Microsoft® Windows®
XP. These should also apply to other versions of Microsoft® Windows and Macintosh® OS 10. The document procedure was as tested with Adobe®
Acrobat®.
Notes :
1. The IC-408 works the same way with minor differences in features in the screen shots.
2.When printing from Microsoft® Word, there is a known issue that prevents the job from printing on the correct size paper without configuring the document
in Word correctly on controllers with system software prior to 1.02.
The page size must be defined as 8.5x11S and the "Scale to paper size" option in the Word print dialog box must be set to 11x17. "Booklet Best Fit" must
also be selected in the print driver options to get the page to fit within the margins. This will result in a slightly reduced image. The other option is to send the
job to the hold queue on the Fiery® and then use Command WorkStation™ to change the paper size to 11x17. This will result in a properly scaled print job,
but requires this extra step.
3. Version 1.02 system code does not require the Scale to paper size option in the Word print dialog box to be set to 11x17. Instead set it to either "none" or
8.5x11S. This will output an image that is not reduced.

Description
Requirements needed for testing and escalation to SSD or ESS of print quality or related issues for Fiery®, CREO©, Emperon and applications.

Solution
Requirements are:

Hard copy samples of issue, with the issue identified/highlighted/circled.

Hard copy samples of what the copies should look like (if possible).
Engine test prints of gradations, halftones at different densities levels, 255, 100, 80, 40.
Mixed halftones at different density levels (see attached Mixed halftones document for additional information).
All machine management and adjustment list printouts.
If relevant, Fiery® configuration page, PostScript and or PCL test page.
If relevant, CREO© configuration page.
Operating System versions (Service packs, 32-bit or 64-bit, etc.), application versions (e.g., Adobe® Acrobat® Pro 8.13), driver versions.
A print to file. PCL or PostScript test print file. This file must have been tested using an LPR command to copy to the MFP and the reported failure observed
prior to sending to SSD or ASG.
If applicable, an archive jobfrom the Fiery® with rasters (RIPped data). This archive should have been tested and verified to contain the reported failure. The
archive folder and associated files must be zipped before sending or placed directly on a CD or DVD.
If applicable, an archivefrom the CREO© that also contains the rasters (RIPped data)
The original application file. If the problem is with Quark® or InDesign®, we need the file and all of its assets (fonts, linked graphics, etc.). Use the feature
“Select Package” within the application for Portability (see attached InDesign file document for additional information). Fill out the wizard, put in the associated
ticket number and special instructions of how the job was set up (detailed, including screen shots if available) and a folder name (usually of the ticket number
and or name of the account). Archive the files into a Folder or burn it from the Macintosh®. These files will typically be too large to attach to a ticket or to
E-mail and will have to be sent on a CD/DVD.
Notes :
1.To view a PDF, Adobe Reader® must be installed. Adobe Reader® can be downloaded for free from the Adobe® web site at:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html .
2. If the files were created on a Macintosh® system the CD/disk needs to be burned on the Macintosh® for the files to be good. You cannot take the files from
the Macintosh® and store them on a USB drive then burn a CD on a Microsoft® Windows machine.They are not portable using that method and will be
useless when burned. If you must burn them on a Microsoft® Windows machine you have to use the following method to make them portable.
a. All the files must be saved/stored in the same folder on the Macintosh®.
b. You must use the"Compress " function on the Macintosh® to save all of the files in the folder in a zipped file format. This must be done to make them
portable.
c. Once this is done then you can then burn them on a Microsoft® Windows PC.
Rather than going through the additional steps it is easier to burn them on the Macintosh® to start with.

Connector (convex) - 292254-6 (CT RELAY HDR ASSY 6P NAT)
Pins (6 needed) - 179518-1
Connector packed in installation kit has 7 wires. Only six are usedfor the light bar. Pin 1 is marked in the plastic of the connector with the black wires
attached;please look closely.
The wires on the machine plug side of the connector are numbered in reverse (pin 1 on the indicator light side of the connector is attached to pin 6 of the
machine side). Keep this in mind when consulting themachine schematics and the Service Manual sectionfor connecting the indicator light.
Connector pins below refer to the harness with the black wires that comes in the kit with the light.

Pin 1 is not used (would be a ground but our system switches to ground)

Pin 2 connected to the BLACK wire in the light harness(+24 volt power lead)

Pin 3 is connected to the ORANGE wire in the light harness and causes the AMBER light to come on. This happens when the machine is out of toner.

Pin 4 is connected to the RED wire in the light harness and causes the RED light to come on. This happens when there is a machine paper jam or when
there is a paper mismatch from the Fiery® controller and the Detail Check button comes on requiring customer interaction.

Pin 5 is connected to the GREEN wire in the light harness and causes the GREEN light to come on. This happens when the machine is operating
normally (making copies). The BLUE light is also on at this time.

Pin 6 is connected to the BLUE wire in the light harness and causes the BLUE light to come on. This happens when the machine is on and ready to
copy, print or scan but not actually running. The BLUE light is also on with the GREEN light when the machine is operating and making copies.
Note : This is a four-light system that indicates Ready, Operating, Low toner, and Jam.The wiring for the light system can be found in the Service
Manual.Please see attachments for reference. To view a PDF, you may need to download a free copy of Adobe Reader®.

Description
Can the Pixel Ratio data be used to determine the toner usage or coverage?

Solution
The pixel ratio data cannot be used to determine the toner usage or coverage.

The pixel ratio data reported on the list is simply referential data and it is not designed for accounting purpose.The intentedpurpose of this data is to check
rough machine usage conditions (low coverage or high coverage). Therefore,KMBS does not recommendusing the pixel ratio data for accounting purpose.

The pixel ratio is calculated from the actualarea written bythe write unitand the total paper area, based on A4 size.

The calculation formula is as follows: Pixel ratio =actually written area for the period / total paper area for the period (# of sheets x A4 area).

The total paper area in the above formula, however, is always calculated using A4 sizem regardless of the actualpaper size used. (One sheet of legal, letter,
A3,or A5 paper is counted as 1 sheet of A4.) The calculationis not affected by any machine setting or market destination. The pixel ratio for an A3
whole-area-solid image is calculated as 200%. If a customer prints many A3 whole-area-solids, the pixel ratio exceeds 100%.

In addition,the pixel ratio datadoes not reflect the actual amount of toner attachedper dot.

ENERGY STAR compliance.

Solution
The ENERGY STAR Program has been established to encourage the widespread and voluntary use of energy efficient technologies that reduce energy
consumption and prevent pollution. As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Konica Minolta has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for
energy efficiency, based on the following features.

Auto Low Power -This function conserves energy by lowering the set temperature of the fixing unit. In the standard setting, Auto Low Power operates
automatically when 15 minutes have elapsed after completion of the last copy, with theMFP remaining in the ready to copy state during that time. The time
period for the Auto Low Power function can be set for 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, 120 minutes, or 240 minutes.

Automatic Shut-Off -This function achieves further energy conservation by partially turning the power supply OFF, thereby reducing energy consumption to
7.9W or less. In the standard setting, Automatic Shut-Off follows Auto Low Power, operating automatically when 90 minutes have elapsed after completion of
the last copy, with theMFP remaining in the ready to copy state during that time. The time period for the Automatic Shut-Off function can be set for 30 minutes,
60 minutes, 90 minutes, 120 minutes or 240 minutes.

LS-501 and LS-502 have been changedto allow forcompatibility with the bizhub PROC6500.Accordingly, care must be takenwith interchangeability between
the current andmodified built-in trolleyand the LC-501.Please beaware of thecautions and the required actions.
Cautions about trolley interchangeability
1. It is not possible to use the current style trolley with a new version LS-501 (15AT/15AM/15AU).

In the new version LS-501, the tray shape is different for an additional tray sensor. To share the trolley between the current and new LS-501, install
themodified tray in the current style trolley.

LS-505 cannot be connectedwith anotherLS-505. Therefore, an old built-in trolley cannot beusedwith the LS-505.
2. It is not possible to install the paper holding leverto hold paper during trolley transport in the current style trolley.

Prior to version 3.0 System 9, calibration for one calibration set could be applied to all specific calibration sets. This option is not available from Command
Workstation 5 when connecting to a System 9 controller. The option is available when connecting to system 8 controllers.

Solution
CAUSE: EFI engineers determined that applying a calibration from one media type to calibration sets specific to other media types wouldreduce quality. This
is EFI's reasoning:

“It is not valid to apply measured calibration values from one media to another.

"If it were, we'd ship one ICC, not four (coated and uncoated with and without gloss setting on Mondavi).

"The feature was a mistake on our part as we know internally that this is not a valid way to achieve best color quality, which EFI is committed to. It's a shame
we had to take it out for future versions as some users had grown to rely on on this cheat, but to leave it there would mean that all users see this to be a valid
workflow and likely pursue it, getting suboptimal results on all the other papers except the one they actually measured.”

Unable to configure 2.5x3 paper size or other small sizes including business cards into a workflow.

Solution
CAUSE:The current printer driver does not allow the selection of 2.5x3 because this size is too small for the engine to feed properly.

SOLUTION:A special Fiery® patch is available which provides a special PPD printer driver without minimum paper size restrictions.

Fiery® PRO80 65-55C-KM version 3.0 = 1-16TABO.exe

Fiery® PRO80 65-55C-KM version 2.1 = 1-16W1NA.exe

The patches are available for download via the Konica Minolta Download Selector. Access the Selector from SSD Web Support (CS Expert Support) by
clicking on 'Download MSDS, Drivers, Firmware and more'. The special patches arecomprised of:
-Patch EXE file
-Release notes explaining how to install the patch
-Microsoft® Windows User Software
Note : Refer to the attacheddocument for details on how to create the custom paper size in Microsoft® Windows. To viewthe PDF, you may need to
download a free copy of Adobe Reader®.

The patches along with a special PPD, allow end users to create custom paper sizes in the driver that are smaller than the MFP specified minimum paper
size. This enhancement enables users to send smaller paper size print files directly to the HOLD queue for additional processing using Command
WorkStation™ Impose.
From a workflow standpoint, Impose® can be used to create a multiple-up document that will print on paper that is large enough to be fed through the engine
(for example, having 8 small business cards on an 8.5x11sheet).
CAUTION : This patch and driver is a workflow solution. NEVER send a print job with apaper size smaller than 5.5x8.5 to the MFP or a jam will result.This
solution requires end user training to prevent jamming and potential engine damage.

2. The Finisher Driving Board assembly has failed. The board failure may present itself as jamming on the second stapled of 8.5x11 only (no jamming with
8.5x11R or 8.5x14). The jam occurs due to the trail edge of the first sheet of set two still being driven slightly after the lead edge has been stopped to allow the
first set to be stapled and exited. J72-20 or J-7220jam codemay also occur.
Replace the FNSDB (p/n 15AA -932 2F).

3. Worn conveyance rollers.

Check and replace conveyance rollers (p/n 15AA 4516 0 and p/n 15AA 4517 0) especially if the MFP has run more than 200,000 copies. There are two (2) for
each.
Conveyance roller/1 is also suspect (p/n 15AA 4515 0). Check the idler roller springs, too.

4. One or more of the finisher conveyance idler rollers (p/n 15AA 4279 0) are dislodged or binding in their holders. J72-20 or J-7220jam codemay also occur.
Inspect all white idler rollers confirming that all rollers turn freely and that the roller shafts have not become dislodged from their holders and the shafts are
not binding in their holders.

5. If jam occurs when stapling 8.5x11 portrait or when recalling a stored copy job with finishing options selected, Special firmware is needed for the FS-503.
(bizhub PRO 1050 series only)

J-3201.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. Too much toner on page when printing with high toner coverage. There is a very high toner coveragewith the papersometimes wrapping around the fuser
roller and sticking thus causing the jam.
In the printer driver, select TONER REDUCTION which islocated under the IMAGE tab.

2. Incorrect setting of DIPswitch 8-5. This DIPswitch default is normally set to 0 or disabled.
Enable DIPswitch 8-5 setting to 1. Depending on paper type, thickness, weight and size, enabling this DIPswitch increases the reversing speed, closing the
timing gap between PS17 (Fusing Paper Exit) and PS13 (Paper Exit).

3. Paper Exit sensor (PS13) is not flagging correctly.

Check the operation of PS13 in I/O mode 20-8. The correct reading is 000 (LOW) when no paper is present and 001 (HI) when paper is present. Replace
PS13 (p/n 08AA 8551 2)if needed.
Note : The Paper exit Relay Wiring/2 harness for PS13may also need to be replaced (p/n A03U N226 00) .

4. Damaged linkage for paper exit gate or failed paper exit solenoid SD4. The jam occurs when duplexing either face up or face down. Paper stops in the
inversion section at reverse roller/Lw before entering the ADU section. All motors and sensors test good in state confirmation mode.
Test SD4 in state confirmation mode 80-0. Repair linkage (p/n 65AA 4928 0) or replace SD4 (p/n 65AA R704 00) if deemed necessary.

PF-601/PF-602, paper tray lift or paper feed problems.

Solution
TheLCD still indicates out of paper,even after adding paper, andthe 5th paper tray does not lift.
CAUSE:Photosensor (PS9 - paper lift upper limit) is operational in the IO test mode, butit is not dropping far enoughto signal the machinethat the tray is in the
lower position.

SOLUTION: Replace PS9 (p/n 08AA 8551 2).

The paper tray fails to rise after being loaded with paper and inserted.
CAUSE: The paper feed tire mechanism that is lifted when the tray is extracted from the machine to ease installation of paper is being damaged as the tray is
inserted into the machine. The mechanism is becoming misaligned, which results in the machine falsely detecting the paper lift tray as being raised.

SOLUTION: Position the bypass feed up down rack (p/n 65AA 4232 0) back a tooth and realign any misaligned plates. Instruct the customer to insert the
paper tray slowly into the PF-601 after the paper tray has been filled in order to allow the paper feed mechanism to return to its normal position prior to
contacting the PF-601 frame assembly.

Paper tray(s) will not lift.

PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. Upper limit sensor is actuated when the tray is down in the lower position.
Repair or replace the Tray 4/Tray 5 upper limit sensor, PS1/PS9(p/n 56AA 8551 2) or adjust the position of the feed assembly for proper upper limit sensor
operation. The operation of the sensor can be checked in the State Confirmation I/O mode code 23-7 or 23-8 (Tray 4/Tray 5). Upper limit activation
shouldindicate"1".
It is also advised to check the operation of the cam on the left hand side of the drawer that raises and lowers the feed assembly when the drawer is pushed or

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. Worm gear of bundle press motor (M23) is loose due toset screw(s)not gripping shaftbecause ofinsufficient lock agent or a set position failure.

Bundle press section does not return to its home position and it cannot be detected by the bundle press home sensor.
After the operation starts, bundle press section does not move to the predefined position and it cannot be detected.
Abnormal noise also may occur since the motor keeps rotating when gears do not engage properly.
If the worm gear is not worn or the edge part of the worm gear is not cracked, reinstall it on the motor.If the gear is damaged, replace it (p/n 15AN 7720 1E).
Note : When tightening the worm gear set screw(s) ( a , as seen below), please apply lock agent ("older" SD-501 M23 motor worm gearshave one set screw
whereas the more recent production models havetwo screws).

2.The bundle press home position sensor (PS37) is not being actuated by the bundle press motor (M23). The bundle press cable is wrapping around itself
causing the unit raise up cocked instead of parallel.
Inspect and realign the cable to wind properly around the capstan.

Description
On the PF-601 and LU-202, when approximately 2000 sheets of coated paper are fed under low temperature environment, a no feed jam or misfeedoccurs.

Solution
CAUSE: The resin from the coated paper is attached on the paper feed roller, the separation roller and the pick-up roller. The friction coefficient of the pick-up
roller surface decreases and causes the misfeed.

SOLUTION: Clean the paper feed roller, the separation roller and the pick-up roller. Install the countermeasure against no feed jam/misfeed of coated paper.

as necessary.

2. High toner coveragecreates anadhesive effect causing paper to stick to the folding knife. This usually occurs when Half-folding two sheets; first sheet
foldsthen exitsand the second sheet stays in thefolding rollers.
Lower the fuser temperatureto lessen the chance that paperadhere to folding knife.

Description
SD-501/SD-506, trimming scraps overflow at the scrap guide or trimming failure occurs if 15mm or more is trimmed.

Solution
CAUSE:The trimming scrap removal paddle rotates in the reverse direction when 15mm or more amount is trimmed. It is the specification (this is toensure
the paddle tipstouch the long-width scraps).
Since the scrap dropping position changes, the scraps may not drop into the scrap box smoothly, depending on type of paper.

SOLUTION:Checkthe areas whichcan prevent scraps from dropping into the box.

The blacktrimmer scraps guideattached on the trimming unit sideis loose.In that state, the dropping path is narrowed.Attach theguide properly.Thismay
occurif the paddle unit was installed in the field.
If the customer always trims 15mm or morefor their booklets, remove the paddle once and watch the operation.The scraps drop byweight.

Description
SD-501, booklets are being exited without being trimmed if Trim is selected.

Solution
CAUSE:The bundle press lower limit sensor (PS47)is ON due to the sensor being contaminated, defective, or due to damaged wiring. This prevents the
bundle press from lowering to press the booklet to be conveyed to the trimmer.

SOLUTION:Observe the operation of the bundle press when making booklets.If the press does not lower to the booklet, perform the following:
1.Check the state of PS47 using I/O inputcheck code 71-50.If L is displayed, the sensor is on and the bundle press will not lower.
2. Begin by cleaning the sensor.If cleaning does not resolve the issue, replace PS47 (p/n 08AA85512).
3. If the problem remains, the wiring for PS47should be checked for damage.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. The overlap home sensor (PS17) located at the bottom of the SD right side has become dislodged or damaged possibly due to a paper jam.
Inspect PS17 (p/n 13QA 8551 2) and the overlap mechanism for damage. The belt for the overlap mechanism may have also come off the pulleys.Place belt
back on pulleys and readjust tension using the belt tension mechanism.
Note : To inspect, the SD unit must be pulled away from the accessory to which it is attached.

2. Improper operation of the Conveyance Guide Plate section.

Check the proper operation of the Conveyance Guide Plate section latch, magnets, idler rollers, and pressure springs. Check that any of the springs are not
missing and supply sufficient pressure, that the idler rollers are not dislodged, loose or missing. The drive and idler rollers should turn properly and should not
be contaminated. All the magnets should not be loose or wedged between the two plates. Replace parts if necessary.

IMPORTANT : The following information isa temporary countermeasure to allow operation ofthe FS-607 while awaiting a replacement FNSCB. Operation
of unit must be monitored at all times when these settings are applied as jamming/damage may occur.
In some cases the messagecan be cleared by resetting communication with the FNSCBby setting DIPSW 18-5 to 1 (Faulty part isolation of the
fold-and-staple function of the SD), recycle power, set DIPSW 18-5to 0 .
If the message clears, set DiPSW 15-3and 15-4 to 1 . This allows the machine to continue printing even if an alarm stop signal is received (tray full, tray lower
limit, waste full, etc.) from the FD/FS/LS/SD. DIPSW 15-3 and 15-4 will need to be set back to 0 after the FNSCB is replaced.

bizhub PRO C6500P Paper Conveyance jams, no-feed, folding, tearing, skewing, curling
CAUSE: While outputting a job onto LS sub tray or other finishing option connected after LS, when the gate ( C in the photo below) lifts up, the gate partly
touches the sensor, PS4 ( A in the photo below) causing the sensor to falselydetect.The gate should stop at the gate stopper( B in the photo below).
However,the gate stopper recedes for some reason.

SOLUTION: If there is a gap between the gate and the gate stopper (check by inserting a sheet of paper at B ), slightly push the gate stopper with a finger
and make the gate touch the gate stopper to avoid the gate touching the sensor.
CAUTION :Do not push the gate stopper too firmly. The edge of the gate may interfere with paper path if it is toomalformed (paper jam may occur). If the
gate is tooseparated from the gate stopper, the gate stopper part may have already become damaged. Replace the guide (p/n 15AV45021).

SD-501, in some cases, a pressure line may appear about 25mm from the trimmed edge of a booklet. This is most noticeable with the following conditions:

Glossy (coated) stock used for covers

Heavy toner application on pages that contact the trimmer board
Booklets over 50 pages thick
Trimmer board nearing its end of life

Solution
CAUSE: A protrusion or ridge at the edge of the trimmer board may have developed during the molding process in manufacturing. The ridge occurs where
the flat surface of the trimmer board meets the beveled edge on the booklet entrance side, causing a line to be pressed into the finished booklet.

SOLUTION: Remove the trimmer board from the SD-501.Use a sharp knife or blade to remove the ridge.
WARNING : To avoid personal injury, keep your hands away from the blade.

Angle the blade away from the direction of travel to avoid cutting into the trimmer board.
Draw the blade along the length of the ridge in a single continuous motion from one end of the board to the other. Repeat two or three times until the ridge
line
area is slightly rounded. Do not remove too much, or marks from dents may result.

LS-501/LS-502, J73-17 (J-7350)or J73-18 (J-7351) jam codes.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1.The sponge, which is attached on the gate stopper section that controls the LS entrance switching gate, has sagged downward due to age deterioration.
Sometimes, the gate stopper moves for no apparent reason. Then the gate interferes with the sensor (PS4) during operation. As the result, the sensor
"chatters" causing J73-17 (J-7350) to occur.

A: Gate stopper B: PS4

As a temporary measure, pull out the gate solenoid. If the gate interferes with the sensor, slightly push the gate stopper with a finger toward the gate until the
gate does not interfere with the sensor when the solenoid is pulled.
CAUTION : Do not push the gate stopper too much. Ensure that the gate stopper does not protrude into the gate.
Note : The gate stopper interference rubber will be changed as follows.

Rubber material: CR rubber hardness 60 degrees

Size: Rubber plate thickness 2.0mm, 10mm x 8mm (the horizontal dimension of the rubber will be changed from 5mm to 8mm).

2. The PS4 (entrance sensor) mounting bracket may have loosened from vibration. This causes a timing error betweenPS4 and PS10 (sub tray exit sensor)
causing J73-18 (J-7351) to occur.
Use either Locktite® or clear nail polish to seal the mounting screw once it has been secured.
Note : J73-17/J73-18 codes pertain to bizhub PRO 1050/1050P/1050e/1050eP and J-7350/J-7351 codes pertain to bizhub PRO

The IC-303/IC-305 does have an Impose™ module option available that can be used to impose the file prior to utlizing FreeForm™.

Description
Corel® Draw X3 documents which are formatted in Landscape orientation will only print through the IC-304 Creo in Portrait orientation.

Solution
CAUSE: Corel® Draw X3 does not have a page orientation function as part of its printer interface. Correct page orientation must then be part of thedriver
manufacturerinterface to obtain correct output.
The IC-304 Graphical Driver Interface does not include a page orientation function, as almost all applications include this as part of their printing interface. As
there is no way to rotate the page within the application, the output will always be rotated 90 degrees.

SOLUTION: Install the IC-304 PPD in Corel® to allow the selection of page orientation.
To enable correct output in Corel®, select "Use PPD" from the General tab of the print dialog box. When this is selected, it will require a PPD to be selected
from the PC. Browse to the c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3 folder and point to the IC-304v1.ppd . Once selected, press the properties button
and choose the Landscape radio button under the Orientation settings. This should allow the job to print in the correct landscape orientation.

Description
In Microsoft® Publisher 2002/2003, publications/records are not individually collated and stapled when duplexing and using the Mail Merge feature.

Solution
CAUSE: Registry edit required.
WARNING : In Microsoft® Windows, system configuration information is centrally located in the registry. While this simplifies the administration of a
computer or network, one incorrect edit to the registry can disable the operating system. The following list provides some best practices for using the registry
and Registry Editor safely:

Before making changes to the registry, make a backup copy.

Back up the registry by using a program such as Backup. After making changes to the registry, create an Automated System Recovery (ASR) disk. For
troubleshooting purposes, keep a list of the changes you make to the registry. For more information, see System State data.
Do not replace the Microsoft® Windows registry with the registry of another version of the Microsoft® Windows or Microsoft® Windows NT-type operating
systems.
Use reliable tools and programs other than Registry Editor to edit the registry.
Incorrectly editing the registry may severely damage the system. Use tools and programs that provide safer methods for editing the registry.
Never leave Registry Editor running unattended.
Konica Minolta is not responsible for any system errors that may result from using a registry editor incorrectly.

SOLUTION: Microsoft® Publisher can be enabled to individually collate, staple and duplex publications/records when using the Mail Merge feature of
Publisher through a registry edit. This can be done either manually or by a script.
To manually edit the registry
Open the Registry Editor by clicking Start, click Run, type regedit , and then click OK. Go to:
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\ \Publisher\Printing
2. Right-click on the Printing folder, select New => String Value.
2. Create new "string value" called: NumberOfRecordsPerBatch
3. Double-click and set the Value Data to 1 . Instead of grouping records together into groups of 10to send to the printer (Publisher default), the records are
now sent in groups of 1 (i.e., each document is sent separately).
Note : A value for this size setting can be set between 0 and 99999.

To update the registry "automatically" from a script

1. Download the scriptfrom http://ed.mvps.org/20031Rec.reg and save the REG file to the Desktop (script is also attached in case the URL cannot be
accessed).
2. Double-click on the icon, and then click on Yes to the question, "Are you sure you want to add the information in C:DOCUME~1\administrator account
\Desktop\20031Rec.reg to the registry?"
3. The new value will be added to the registry.

Description
C-3102code possibly accompanied by an abnormal noise.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. One of the gears in the fusing unit gearboxfails. The shaft for fusing unit gear/H has been changed so that it is now supported at both ends instead of just
one end. The gear is now made of a stronger material.
The new design has been incorporated into all bizhub PRO C6500/C6500P machines beginning with s/n A03U010000787. A replacement gearbox is
available for machines with lower serial numbers. For the machines with serial numbers between A03U010000788 and A03U010001446 the fuser gearbox is
already updated and only fusing gear/H (p/n A03U 8088 11) needs to be replaced.
Note :See attached Bulletin Number5923.This only applies to bizhub PRO C6500. All other models have the new style.

2. The machine cannot determine the separation cam home position.

Check the following items PS16 (p/n 08AA 8551 2) and Release Actuator flag (p/n A03U 7244 00). Make sure when the fuser jam release green knob is
turned counterclockwise, the Release Actuator flag (p/n A03U 7244 00) blocks and unblocks PS16/PS17. Check to see if the sensor is disconnected. If
turning the Fuser Jam removal Knob does not change the position of the Release Actuator flag, then check the drive gears associated withM30 (p/n 27LA
8003 0) for broken or stripped drive gears andreplace them if damaged.

3. A one-way gear (p/n A03U 8093 00) is slipping in the fixing drive assembly.
Replace the (3) fixing drive gears with the modifiedFixing Drive Gear/M 22T (p/n A03U 8093 11) andthe fixing drive shaft/A (p/n A03U 7258 00).
Please refer to the attached Parts Modification Notices for details. To view a PDF, you may need to download a free copy of Adobe Reader®.

4. Failed fixing limiter.

Replace fixing limiter (p/n 65AA 5365 1).

5. Failed ICP14 on Conveyance Drive Board. Reference attached for ICP14 location.
Replace Conveyance Drive Board (p/n A03U H050 04).
Note : If the female connector on the fuser drive motor (M29) is broken it can allow CN512 to be plugged into the wrong pins. This can cause ICP14 to fail
on the Conveyance Drive Board.

possibly with C-4501, C-4502, C-4503and/or C-4504 error codes.

possibly with C-4521 and/or C-4522 error codes.

Solution
At power up
CAUSE: Ten (10) pixels of Color registration overlap is detected when comparing to a previous Color Registration adjustment.

SOLUTION: In order to reduce the error occurrence ratio, the following function was added to firmware version 60.
DIPSW 23-1
0 : SC detected condition 10 pixels (Default)
1 : SC detected condition 60 pixels
Notes :
1. To change SC detected condition only, color registration accuracy itself is not change.
2. The purpose of this DIPswitch is to reduce the occurrence ratio. Color registration problem itself cannot be improved.
3. Download and install firmware version 60 if necessary. The latest version firmware or system software is available via the Konica Minolta Download
Selector. Access the Selector from SSD Web Support (CS Expert Support) by clicking on 'Download MSDS, Drivers, Firmware and more'.

Poor copy quality, lines, wrinkles. The transfer belt may mis-track or slide toward one side or the other ("walking" off the rollers)
PROBABLECAUSES:
1. Upper front bearing falling out of the holderbecause oflack of tension on the upper roller bearings.
Remove and reverse the upper front bearing (p/n 5400 7605 0 listed on page 32, Key 5 in the Parts Manual) so that the bearing flange is outward and/or
slightly re-form the holder in which it sits so that more pressure is applied to the bearing.

2. Tension roller in the Intermediate Transfer Assemblybecoming dislodged, permitting the transfer belt to “walk off” or the upper and lower tension rollers
are not lining up correctly.
Addition of a new spacer at each end of the tension roller prevents the roller from disengaging from the bracket. To accommodate the new spacer, the length
of the roller has been increased slightly and a “D” shape placed on the ends. Refer to attached Bulletin Number 6331 for additional detail. Also, adjusting the
lower tension roller is suggested. Please see the attached document for directions.

3. Gaps between Tension Plate Rear Caulking (p/n 65AA -273 0) and Plate/Rear (p/n 65AA 2625 0E) after maintenance performed on the transfer belt unit.
Set Tension Plate Rear Caulking properly so that no gap exists and firmly fix with screw. See attached files for more information.
Note :Also refer to attached Bulletin Number 6522 which addresses Transfer Belt Sliding.

During color registration adjustment

PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. Failed color registration sensor PS8 or PS9.
To identify the failed sensor, you can swapPS8with PS9. Run Output Check, code 5, multi code 2 for Color registration sensor output voltageor code 5, multi
code 6 for Color registration sensor. A number between 0 and 255 is displayed on the [IN] area of the LCD.
Inspect the Color Compensating wiringconnecting each sensor to a CRB.The Color Registration assembly (p/n A03U R798 00) will need to be replaced if PS8
or PS9 has failed.

2. PS8 and PS9 not calibrated properly.

To calibrate:
a. Disable Color Registration Correction Control in the 25 mode, software DIPswitch 25, bit 3 to 1 (ON) and bit 4 to 0 (OFF).
b. Run Color Registration Adjustment in the Service Mode ? Machine Adjustment ? Printer Adjustment ? Color Registration Adj.
c. Enable Color Registration Control in the 25 mode, software DIPswitch 25, bit 3 to 0 (OFF) and bit 4 to 0 (OFF)).
d. Perform Auto Color Registration adjustment again.

After performinga PM
CAUSE:The Color Registration adjustment was not performed (bizhub PRO C5500/C5501/C6500/C6501 ).

SOLUTION: Perform the Color Registration adjustment:

1.Enter Service Mode.
2.Select Machine Adjustment.

CAUSE: The first transfer pressure release motor (M19) coupling gear is spring loaded and can become lodged in the back position.

SOLUTION: Release the first transfer pressure release motor (p/n 08AA 8003 0) coupling gear (p/n 65AA 1714 0) so that it springs freely when pressed and
released.

Possibly with C-4501, C-4502, C-4503and/or C-4504 error codes

PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. Open ICP fuse on the Printer Control Board (PRCB).
Check the continuity of the ICP fuses ICP17, ICP20, and ICP21 with the PRCB out of the machine. You can also carefully check that there is 24V DC on
each side of the fuses while the board is in the machine. Voltage on just one side of the fuse would indicate that the fuse is open and the board needs
replacing (p/n A03U R75911 - Printer Control Unit).

2. If [09 Writing Init. Pos. Memory] is not performed, the adjustment value is not reset to the initial value. Consequently, adjustment margin is decreased in
some cases.
Whenthe write unit is replaced, clean the dust-proof glass and perform the following adjustments in order:
a. Writing Init Pos. Memory
b. LD Bias Adjustment
c. I/O check mode
d. CD Skew Adjustment
e. Restart Timing Adjustment
f. Color Registration Adjustment
g. Color Registration/Manual (Adjustment)
h. Auto Gamma Adjustment
Note : Please refer to attached Machine Adjustment section taken from the March 2009, Version 2.0 bizhub C6501/C6501P/C65hc/C5501 Service Manual,
Theory of Operation.

Possibly with C-4521 and/or C-4522 error codes

CAUSE: ICP17 isOPEN on the Printer Control Board. The wiring between the printer control board and the hardware counters may be pinched. If the wire is
shorted to ground, ICP17 on the printer control board will open, resulting in the error code. If the wire is broken internally without shorting, the machine will
function but the counter will not increment.

SOLUTION:Check the wiring between the PRCB and the Total Counter. There might be a short to ground close to the Total Counter. After the short is found
and repaired, replace the PRCB (p/n A03U R759 11).
If the wiring is not damaged, reposition it so that it is secured in the plastic hooks behind the counters. This will keep the wiring from being pinched when the
cover is removed and reinstalled.
It is recommended that all machines be inspected at setup or the next service call to prevent future incidents.

CAUSE:A toner density sensor has failed or is being read incorrectly.

SOLUTION:To troubleshoot:
1. Swap suspected problem developing unit with theanother developing unit (tape up the developer toner entrance hole or leave toner hopper unit open with
interlocks made so it will not be adding toner to the incorrect swapped unit) and powerON the machine.
If the problem follows the developing unit and a different service code is indicated,the TDS sensor (p/n A03U M508 01) may have failed.
2. Check the values of the sensors in the Service Mode:
Service Mode a Process adjustment a Sensor output check a #4 TCR sensors .
Values should be around 127-130 (if no reading, check developing unit connections, spring contacts and for loose wires).

The higher the value, the more undertoned the developer.

The lower the value, the more overtoned.

3. Try depleting toner, if needed, from the suspected unit by running halftones of test pattern 53, density of 255 (leaving toner hopper unit open so it will not
add toner). Check if the TCR value rises, achieving a value of 130.
4. Try adding toner to the suspected unit (closing the toner hopper unit so it will add) in the I/O mode (54-0 for Yellow, 54-3 for Magenta, 54-6 for Cyan or
54-9 for Black) to see if the suspected unit values go lower (if not, the toner hopper may be packed or the toner motor has failed; test in I/O). Try to achieve
the value of 127-130.Please refer to attached documentation. To viewthe PDF, you may need to download a free copy of Adobe Reader®.

5. The above procedures might have to be done a couple of times to achieve the target values. Perform any required image adjustments after the procedure
has been done.

Solution
CAUSE: A failed Paper Lifting gear /D (15T/40T) and/or the Intermediate Roller Open/Close motor (M25).
Note : The motor worm gear and paper lift up gear are worn or improperly meshed and unable to transmit the drive. This applies to machines below the
following serial numbers:

15AE03833

15AF00951
Manufacturing changes were made to eliminate this situation on machines with higher serial numbers.

SOLUTION: Replace Paper Lifting gear /D (p/n 5400 7732 1) and/or the Intermediate Roller Open/Close motor (p/n 15AA R717 00 - includes worm gear).
Notes :
1. The operation of the intermediate roller and motor can be checked using I/O mode output code 72-56. When initiated, the intermediate roller should
perform a home search.
2. If improperly meshed and only slightly worn, loosen the screw that fixesM25(using#1 Phillips-head screwdriver). While pressing the worm gear slightly in
the direction of the gear, tighten the screw and apply asmall amount(2-3mm size) of Plus Guard grease (p/n 00GR00020) on the worm gear anda few drops
(5-6mm size)on the cam surface. If the worm gear and worm wheel are seriously worn, replace themand then apply grease as previously mentioned.
CAUTION : Be careful not to smear grease on the nearby sensor (PS33).

5524 0) and Paper Holding Spring/right (p/n 15AN 5538 0)may beincorrectly installed .
Inspect the holding springs on the bundle clip which are located in the slope section of the SD unit. If broken or even if they are incorrectly installed, replace
the springs. The work of replacing the springs takes approximately 10 minutes.

2. PS33 (bundle clip upper limit sensor) located at the top of then slope section has failed.
Using I/O mode code 71-42 input, check the sensor for changes of state. If the sensor does not change state, replace PS33 (p/n 08AA 8551 2).

3. M11 (Bundle clip motor) has failed.

After verifying that PS33 (bundle clip upper limit sensor), PS30 (bundle clip lower limit sensor) and PS34 (bundle clip home position sensor)are functioning by
checking in the I/O mode, replace the bundle clip motor (p/n 15AN R728 00). The motor may operate but may be too weak to overcome the spring pressure at
the top and bottom of the slope section.

4. The bundle clip is binding on its rail due to contamination or lack of lubrication.
Note : This occurs when making booklets.
Clean the bundle clip rail and lubricate with a light lubrication.Do not use a heavy grease.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. The clincher up/down gear has become damaged.
Note : A grinding noise may also be heard.
Replace the gear(p/n 15AN 7744 00). The stacker section must be withdrawn to access the gear.Pleaseseeattached SD-501 Bulletin Number 5384 as a
reference.
IMPORTANT :As a preventative measure,apply EM-30L grease (p/n 00GR00220) to the gear on the next service visit. After that, please apply grease every
750,000 copies. Grease is applied during the manufacturing process, but possibly dries upover time.
The gear location can be seen when the left door of SD-501/SD-506 is opened. Using a long brush or similar, apply the grease under good light (flashlight).
CAUTION : TurnOFF the power switch before starting the work and please be careful that grease does not fall off of the gear.

2. Failed M20 (clincher up/down motor) which"appears" to function normally, but lacks speed and strength to lift the clinchers and activate PS26 (clincher
up/down home sensor) at the designated time (for reference, please see attached SD-501 Theory of Operation).
The commutator in M20 becomes dirty and fails to make good connection with the brushes. The motor loses strength and speed or may fail tocommence
rotating. When continuity is measured with a meter, reading will fluctuate wildly as the shaft is slowly turned, indicating poor connection through the
commutator to the windings of the armature.
Replace M20 (DC Brush Motor/1 - p/n 15AQ M103 00).

3. PS26 has failed.

Replace PS26 (p\n 08AA 8551 2).

4. The staple clincher wiring is disconnected or the solenoid stopper portion of the staple clincher breaks.
Check the staple clincher wiring connection. The shape of the staple Assy/B has been changed. Please replace the part andsee attached SD-501 Bulletin

PB-501, troubleshooting for wrinkles/dents at spine of booklet.

Solution
Wrinkles and/or dents at spine of booklets influence thequality of perfect bound booklets. Therefore, please pay attention to the following for troubleshooting
tips.

CAUSE: A slight pasting unevenness at spine of a book may cause wrinkles and/or dents after cover paper is attached. If glue applying conditions (glue
applying area and cover paper pressing force) are the same, wrinkles and/or dents become more noticeable when cover paper is thin or book is thick. For the
details, see the attached Paper Wrinkles and Dents document.

SOLUTION: By pressing the cover paper forcibly against the spine of book, flatten the glue at the spine. Concretely, according to the combination of cover
paper weight and book thickness, increase the cover paper pressing force (spine corner forming position adjustment). The adjustment is on the [Machine]
screen => [Adjustment] => [Finisher Adjustment] => [Perfect Binder Adjustment] => [Spine corner forming Position Adj. (front and rear sides)].
For the amount of adjustment, see the attached Rough indication document.
Additionally, cover paper pressing force set when the machine is shipped from the factory (gap between the spine of book and cover paper). See the
shipment standard in the attached Rough indication document.
During the manufacturing process, the following values are input.

Basic: 0.8mm
Only for 7mm or thicker book printed with bizhub PRO C6500: 1.5mm
Adjustment target during the manufacturing process:
Book thickness: 10mm, cover paper weight: 128g/m2
For specified paper for PB-501, see the attached Specified Paper for PB-501 document.

Solution ID TAUS0702018EN* Solution Usage

Description
Loud popping noise anddamage to the LS-501 and LS-502.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. The main cause of damage to the LS-501 and LS-502 is power to the machine being turned off before the stacker tray has fully descended onto the hand
cart. This is not an issue for day-to-day operation in a static configuation; it becomes an issue if the bizhub PROconfiguration is being changed and the LS
units are being moved.
Before moving an LS-501 or LS-502, always be certain that the stacker tray has finished moving to the lowered position before turning the machine off. This
keeps tension on the stacker up/down wires, keeping them from binding when the unit is connected the next time.

2. Another cause of damage is improper positioning of the stacker tray on the hand cart, usually after unloading paper from the tray. If the tray is not
positioned properly, the upper limit switch is not actuated, so the mechanism continues driving the tray until the alignment plate or other parts are damaged, or
the up/down wires break.
Be certain that the stacker tray is positioned properly on the hand cart before placing it back inside the LS-501 or LS-502.

Solution
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1.SD-501 trimming scraps not dumping; backing up due to malfunction of the Bundle Exitmotor (M5).
Test the M5 motor in the Machine Condition I/O Service Mode 71-09 and 71-21 for proper operation. Also, with the scrap drawer out, try manually rotating the
M5 motor clockwise withonly your index finger; it should rotate easily with no hesitation. Look for binds or cracked gears. Replace thefailed M5 motor (p/n
27LA 8003 2E) as necessary.
Note :This DC BRUSHLESS MOTOR/30 can be found on page 29 (Trimmer Section), Key 10 of the SD-501 Parts Manual.

2. Trimming scrap wraps around the scrap removal paddle. As shown by Figure 1, the trimming scraps drop unevenly (the center of the scrap delays) andthe
scrap iscaught at the roller of the paddle.

Figure 1

If the unit continues trimming operation, the scrap does not drop and wraps around the paddle as shown by Figure 2.

Figure 2

This might occur because:

The trimming blade is dull.

The trimming scrap width is large.
If the scrap tends to drop vertically (not horizontally), the scrap in the collection box is not straight or the trimmed surface is not smooth thenthe trimming
blade is dull. Replace the blade unit (p/n 15AN-5701).
Ifthe scrapis about 10mm, it may easily be caught by the paddle. Set the width to between 2mm and 4 mm:
a. Enter the Service Mode.
b. Touch [11 Finisher Adjustment].
c. Touch [06 Saddle Stitcher Adj.].
d. Touch [07 Trimming Adjustment].
e. Enter a value using numeric keys and touch [Set]. Value: 1 step = 0.1mm

Description
If the feed direction (FD) alignment plate does not move properly, there is interference with the paper clamp, which can result in the alignment plate being
bent. There is no associated error code.

Solution
CAUSE: Evaporated glue can accumulate on the slide shafts for the FD alignment plate, preventing the plate from operating normally.

SOLUTION: As a preventive measure, apply grease to the slide shafts at the next service visit. The grease will prevent evaporated glue from adhering to the
shafts. After the initial application of grease, reapply it every 750,000 prints. The recommended grease is Plas Guard No. 2 (p/n 00GR00020).
Notes :
1. Applying grease to the FD alignment plate shafts has been added to the 750,000-print PM schedule.

PB-501, SC78-15.

Solution
CAUSE: Severe damage to the machine involving the glue tank and the regulation plate /2 in the clamp section. The screws that secure regulation plate/2 are
loose and the plate interferes with the glue tank. In some cases, the regulation plate bows outward and the clamp unit becomes bent.

SOLUTION: Due to the potential serious damage that may occur if the regulation plate becomes loose (and also as a preventive measure), check the screws
on the next service call to ensure that they are tight. If loose, add a drop of thread lock adhesive to prevent loosening in the future. Machines currently in
production have the screws fastened with a thread lock adhesive.
