Re: SHARP DX-2000U - F2-40 Error, EE-EL error

Hello Everyone,

I want to appreciate you all for your technical input and support during my dark moments with my machine. I am glad to inform you that the machine is up and running. the printout is good and I learned a lot during this process. long before now, Copiers are not my thing but I came to understand that when one is faced with a challenge it opens up an opportunity to learn.

Well, I had to change the Cyan and Black DV.
Serviced the machine by removing excess toners in the machine
I Ran Sim 25-02 without the toner cartridge
Also Sim 44 etc...

Eventually, my machine worked and so happy. though I had to spend money to get DV.

Thank you, guys.
Cheers,

That refers to the cyan now. If you're lucky you can tweak it like the black and get it going. They are tricky sometimes. Occasionally you can have a problem with the toner sensor on the developer unit.

25-01 will not fix the error because you are just turning the toner motors. A sky shot is when you make copies with the platen cover open. Take a piece of paper place it about an inch from the lead edge, place it on the glass and run about 50+sky shots with the toner removed, if possible. Do not attempt another 25-02. The purpose of the sky shot is to use up the toner in the developing unit, but it may not be possible.
But, like I said, if your CQ is good, just go with it, and hopefully all will be good until the next pm on the developer. If not you will have to replace the developer.

Hi,
I was able to perform sky shots with the developer check disabled. i ran 50 black copies and 50 colored copies. DV check is enabled while the toner cartridges are installed back, now am getting F2-41 not 40

Please how do i hard reset DX - 2000U to factory default. Like how do I wipe the machine ?

Re: SHARP DX-2000U - F2-40 Error, EE-EL error

At this stage, I have tried different sets of Toner Cartridges, also confirmed my DV tanks on another machine and it worked. Does this have to do with bad PCB or factory related issues?

This machine is driving me insane and just need solutions to get it up and running

Help!

I would say the the MX-70GV-SA should not be used in the DX-2000U.

In the US there is MX-36NVSA and a MX-70NVSA. These are used in two different machines with two very different sized DV hoppers.

The 36NVSA is 585 grams and the 70NVSA is 765 grams.

Hello Everyone,

So I removed my developing tanks and tried them on two different machines and it worked fine. The print out was super good. I did not run sim 25-2 on these other machines but it worked. Infact one of the machine has having an f2-40 error and immediately i inserted my DV tanks the error cleared.

Please what exactly is the problem with my machine? Kinda scared buying another DV and the machine ejects it.

Someone was saying the error is stored in my machines memory and i need to clear the error out else the won't recognize the DV unit. This doesn't make sense to me. Secondly i don't know how to clear the machines memory.

Experts in the house should help out.

It will also help to turn off the dv control in sim 7-1 while running sky shots so it doesn't keep replenishing the toner. It will also get around the f2 code if that is locking up the machine. Then run 25-2 when it looks like it's where you want it.

Thank you all for your technical input.
However, I have decided to change the tri-Color DeveloperMaterial Kits. the machine came with MX-36FV-SA (M, C, Y, and B) I was able to get the MX-70GV-SA developer kit instead though am yet to place an order for it. my challenge now is that I don't know if it's going to be compatible with the machine.

Furthermore, what is the standard procedure when installing new developer kits?

- Remove toner cartridges from the machine.
- Remove old developer kits from the developing tank, and clean the tank very well.
- Pour the new developing unit into the DV tank accordingly
- insert the DV tanks back into the machine.
- Power the machine and run sim 25-02, allow the machine to calibrate to 100- 130
- Now insert toner cartridges and press the CA button

Hope am on track.

Someone should assist me here

Thanks

Hi 25-01 it used to mix the toner and dev then after that you run 25-02 to set the reference value.

Hello there,

Please what do you mean by sky shots and how do I access them? I have done sim 25-01 multiple times but did not fix the EE-EL error. am looking at going for new developers

Re: SHARP DX-2000U - F2-40 Error, EE-EL error

Do you have cq issues? If not, just use the copier as is cross your fingers and hopefully all will be fine. With the EE-EL, you could try running sky shots without the toner installed, but I think it may overtone again, possibly. If all else fails you will have to replace developer.

I can't seem to find a cross reference to a US model so I'm afraid that I don't have an answer for you on the cost for a set of developers.

Sorry

Re: SHARP DX-2000U - F2-40 Error, EE-EL error

You might get lucky but the easiest and expensive way is to replace the developer in all of your DV units and start over. Then run perform your calibration per the SM.

Good luck

Bil

Thank you Bil.. please how much is the developer for this machine
