Failed part
• Check the conditions of ARCNET cables and connectors explained in 68100 ☞The Factor List of the ARCNET Communication
Errors.
• Remove the ARCNET cable of the emission side connected to the white connector,
and check whether the red light is weaker than any of the other connectors.
• If the red light is weaker than the other connectors or the the connector does not
emit any light, check whether there are chips of shaved ARCNET cable sheath
inside the connector.
• See 68100
☞Removing chips of shaved cable sheath in the ARCNET
connector.
• See 68100
☞How to use the aspirator.
• If no chips of the shaved cable sheath is found, check whether +5 V is normally
supplied to the printer control PCB, processor control PCB, laser control
PCB and printer I/F main PCB.
• If ☞No. 06909 or ☞No. 06901 occurs after replacing the printer I/F main PCB, Machine Type Registration of Machine
