Re: ir6870 "CHECK THE DRUM PHASE"

It is recommended to be done every 250000 to prevent drum memory.
The drum stops at the same area all the time
You should turn AINR off
rotate the drum 1/4 turn
and do COPIER > Function . MISC-P > Dr-P-ADJ.
The instructions are behind the Process Unit cover

================================================== =====================
"Check the drum phase"

With the default setting, the message "Check the drum phase" is displayed only on the service mode screen. However, following the procedure below enables you to display the message on both the user and the service mode screens.
---
In service mode [COPIER > OPTION > DRM-DISP], change the setting from "1" (default) to "2".
- Setting "0": disable message
- Setting "1": display only on Service Mode screen (Default)
- Setting "2": display on both User and Service Mode screens

"Check the drum phase" is displayed when the drum reaches at the estimated life of 100,000 images (Default value).
This is to urge you to shift the drum phase for prevention of drum memory.
Remedy
1. Shift the drum phase referring to Service manual [Maintenance and Inspection > Periodically Replaced Parts > Scheduled Service Basic Procedure >
Shifting the Photosensitive Drum Phase].
2. In service mode [COPIER > FUNCTION > MISC-P > DR-P-ADJ], press OK. The counter "DRM-PHAS" will be automatically reset, and the message will disappear.

----------------------------------------------------
E020-00ff. Relates to toner stirring not being executed.
It indicates that ITS1=0 continues when the hopper stirring motor has been driven for 8 cycles (ON for 4.5 sec, OFF for 0.5 sec x 8 times) after the presence of toner
inside the hopper (TS2=1) and the absence of toner (TS1=0) inside the black toner assembly have been detected.

Do a Part Check in service mode/ see if it shows the stirring motor(M23) turning,
try swapping the motor with bottle rotation motor (M25) see if shows the motor is good.
see if 5v at DC controller J1108b pin 1 changes when the motor is to be turned on.

if not ///DC Controller issue

Our 58 and 68 series machines that are still running are now up to 1,5M copies. We never turn the drumphase, never seen any trace of drum memory.
