Toshiba e-studio 810

Vesigoth · 01-05-2009

I'm having several problems with this machine. The fuser is not heating up and I'm not getting any code even after 10 minutes of "warming up". After reinitializing the hard drive in function 2, I reset all connectors on both hard drives and on main board. Also cassette # 2 and LCC are not shown on the display although the paper lift motors do lift the paper. I load a document on the ADF and the document is taken in and spat out of the ADF but the scanner doesn't move although it does move when power is turned on. I've replaced the fuser unit and the IH board in front of the fuser unit and no help. If you've seen these problems before please help.

I had a similar problem, it was the HDD. Had to replace it. In my case you could actually hear the HDD clicking so it was pretty easy to narrow down. Your case might be different but I had the same symptoms with mine.

Hi. how you're doing. Thanks for replying. I don't hear it clicking, just an electronic beep or 2 @ initialization. also there are 2 HDDs. can I put a 550 HDD ?

hdd connected to sys boartd is for the copier
hdd connected to GL 1020 is for printing scanning functions
hdd from e550 should be ok
check firmware level (08- 900 codes)

Thank you both for the help. I'll replace the HDD and post back with results. Thanks again.

yeah...had some unrelated issues on an 810 and while swapping lgc pwb installed bc ram upsidedown. After installing the chip in right and putting the pwb back into the doaner machine it exhibted the exact same problems you described. New bc ram because it wouldn't reflash, and problem solved.
