Product Information - 1

Product Information The printers covered in this manual are • LaserWriter II SC • LaserWriter II NT • LaserWriter II NTX • LaserWriter IIf • LaserWriter IIg Compatibility: Except for I/O boards components, all parts are compatible among the five models. Refer to Illustrated Parts and Take Apart chapters for more information. Refer to “Print Engine Check” in Flowcharts for Troubleshooting information.

Startup Test Page - 2

Startup Test Page LaserWriter II printers generate a startup test page approximately 2 – 3 minutes after you switch on the printer. Except for the IISC, the startup test page also shows unit-specific configuration information. The following pages describe each element of the startup test page.

Startup Test Page - 6

IISC Startup Test Page The LaserWriter IISC test page consists only of vertical lines. The printer will generate a test page only if its SCSI address has been set to 7 prior to powering up. Note: Be sure to set the SCSI address back before you resume printing.

Service Test Page - 7

Service Test Page The service test page is generated by the DC controller board and serves to confirm print engine operation. To generate this test page, remove the bottom panel cap located at the rear of the printer. Insert a screwdriver or similar dowel-shaped tool through the quarter inch diameter opening and press the service test page button.

Preventive Maintenance - 8

Preventive Maintenance Before performing any preventive maintenance, be sure to do the following: 1 Check the page count on the startup test. If the I/O board has been replaced or upgraded, check the repair log label affixed to the bottom of the printer or consult with the customer to determine page count. 2 Power off and unplug the printer. 3 Allow the fuser assembly rollers to cool. 4 Prepare your work area for electrostatic discharge prevention. 5 Spread a drop cloth under the work area to protect the floor from grease and spilled toner. Caution: Never use an ammonia-based cleaner on the

Preventive Maintenance - 9

LaserWriter II. These cleaners can discolor the plastic. Caution: Before servicing the fuser rollers, make sure that the printer has been off at least 5 minutes to allow the fuser assembly to cool. The service provider should clean the following items every 12 months or during each service call.

IIf/IIg Diagnostic/ - 1

IIf/IIg Diagnostic Set the rotary switch on the back of the printer to 4 and connect the LaserWriter II Test Connector to the DB-25 serial port (or simply jumper pins 4 and 22). Switch on the printer. Under normal conditions, LEDs should flash during startup, and then fix on the “diagnostic executing” configuration for about 2 minutes. If no error is found, all LEDs flash and a page prints. If the LEDs indicate an error, go to the appropriate topic in Flowcharts. After running this diagnostic, switch off the printer, remove the Test Connector, and reset the rotary switch to its original setting.

Capacitor Discharge - 2

Capacitor Discharge When there is a failure of the fusing system, the DC controller board shuts off current to the fuser roller heater and charges capacitor C211 to prevent overheating. If there is a failure of the fusing system, you must turn the power off for about 30 minutes or manually discharge the capacitor before switching power back on. C211 DC Controller Board

Capacitor Discharge - 3

Switch off and unplug the printer, and remove the bottom panel and lower cover. Locate capacitor C211 on the DC controller board. Carefully jumper the two wires at the base of the capacitor using some kind of conductive tool, as shown on the next page. Caution: Take care not to damage the board tracings or the components neighboring the capacitor. Note: There are many different tools that can be used to discharge the capacitor: a flat blade screwdriver, paper clip, or aluminum foil doubled over. The tool illustrated is a length of lead solder. It has the advantage of being ductile and is less apt to damage the controller board.

Controller Board Readings - 5

Controller Board Readings Voltage readings on the Canon SX engine controller board are difficult to make and require accessing the underside of the printer. Rest the printer on the I/O board rails with the rear side facing you and the near rail at the front edge of your work surface. If you need to elevate the printer to get clearer access to the DC controller board, use the bottom panel and lower cover. Caution: The printer must be in an upright position during a print cycle or while the clamshell is open.

Roller Diameters - 6

Roller Diameters Repetitive printing defects can often be isolated by measuring the tracking left by rollers. On the next page is a diagram that shows all the rollers in the LaserWriter II that come into contact with paper. The dimension given is the distance between tracks.

Roller Diameters - 7

Transfer Guide Assembly .5" (13 mm): roller to corona assy 1.5" (38 mm): upper metallic roller 1.75" (44 mm): lower black roller Fuser Assembly 2.56" (65 mm): lower fuser roller 3.16" (80 mm): upper fuser roller Toner Cartridge 2.0" (51 mm): developer roller 3.75" (95 mm): photosensitive drum

Drum Check - 8

Drum Check Interrupting a print cycle and inspecting the photosensitive drum can help isolate the cause of print quality problems. If the image on the surface of the drum exhibits the same problem as the printed page, the fault is before the drum, probably somewhere in the scanning system. If the image on the drum is okay, the fault is after the drum, probably in the fuser assembly, transfer corona, or high-voltage power supply. Note: Refer to “Roller Diameters” in this chapter for further quick-check troubleshooting tips.

Top-Cover Interlock - 9

Top-Cover Interlock Defeating the top-cover interlock simulates a clamshell-shut condition and is required in certain troubleshooting procedures. You defeat this interlock by lodging a stiff, non-metallic insert into the interlock switch. A plastic ball-point pen cap or folded index card works well.
