7100-XXX Paper size sensing service check Step 1 2 3 4 5 Questions / actions Yes No Turn printer off, and remove engine controller board shield. See "Engine controller board removal" on page 4-34 for steps to remove engine controller board shield. Is cable properly connected to engine controller board connector MCN7? Turn printer on, and check for 5 VDC between MCN7 pin 2 and ground. Is 5 VDC present? Check for cable continuity between LVPS ACN1 and engine controller board POCN. Is continuity present? If paper tray is removed, set paper tray for desired paper size, and insert paper tray into printer. Using table below, check for proper paper size sensor action by taking voltage readings between ground and engine controller board MCN7 pins 4, 6, 8 and 10. Is paper size sensor working properly? Check cable for continuity between engine board MCN7 and paper size sensor. Also check for shorted pins. Is cable okay? Go to step 2. Go to step 4. Replace LVPS. See "Low voltage power supply (LVPS) with cage removal" on page 4-40. Replace engine controller board. See "Engine controller board removal" on page 4-34. Replace paper size sensor. See "Left tray guide assembly removal" on page 4-42. Properly connect cable. Go to step 3. Go to step 4. Go to step 5. Replace cable by replacing the left tray guide assembly.

Paper size sensing service check
Step
Questions / actions
Yes
No
1
Turn printer off, and remove engine
controller board shield. See
“Engine
controller board removal” on page 4-34
for steps to remove engine controller board
shield. Is cable properly connected to
engine controller board connector MCN7?
Go to step 2.
Properly connect cable.
2
Turn printer on, and check for 5 VDC
between MCN7 pin 2 and ground. Is 5 VDC
present?
Go to step 4.
Go to step 3.
3
Check for cable continuity between LVPS
ACN1 and engine controller board POCN. Is
continuity present?
Replace LVPS. See
“Low
voltage power supply
(LVPS) with cage
removal” on page 4-40
.
Go to step 4.
4
If paper tray is removed, set paper tray for
desired paper size, and insert paper tray
into printer. Using table below, check for
proper paper size sensor action by taking
voltage readings between ground and
engine controller board MCN7 pins 4, 6, 8
and 10. Is paper size sensor working
properly?
Replace engine controller
board. See
“Engine
controller board removal”
on page 4-34
.
Go to step 5.
5
Check cable for continuity between engine
board MCN7 and paper size sensor. Also
check for shorted pins. Is cable okay?
Replace paper size sensor.
See
“Left tray guide
assembly removal” on
page 4-42
.
Replace cable by replacing
the left tray guide assembly.
