iR4080 error code e0225

[OtherTech]

Has anyone had this error code and fixed it. We have changed a lot of parts with no success. Most recently the scan motor. Can print no problem but intermittantly when using the scanner will get this code!

maybe

check scanner home position mylar to see if it is bent, if so straighten. causes 225-001.
clean the white plate and change the lamp.
if you replaced ccd assy be sure to input the values on the label of the ccd unit. this should get you started.

Mylar on home position sensor ok. Previous tech replaced lamp and inverter bd. Also replaced reader control pcb and ccd unit (did not fix so he put back original pcb and ccd). New thing I noticed is code only comes up when using feeder (works fine off platen) Other symptom is machine does not properly recognize size of original on platen when ADF is closed. (ltr read as 11 x 17 and ltrR read as legal). Could lamp be in wrong position or could software settings be problem?

more info

After Replacing the CCD Unit: If you have replaced the CCD unit, be sure to enter the settings indicated on the label attached to the CCD unit:
COPIER>ADJUST>CCD>CCDU-RG (to enter the correction value for CCD-dependent RG color displacement in sub scanning direction)

COPIER>ADJUST>CCD>CCDU-GB (to enter the correction value for CCD-dependent GB color displacement in sub scanning direction)

Moreover, be sure to update the settings indicated on the service label attached behind the reader unit front cover with the settings indicated on the label

attached to the CCD unit. (left rear of compartment)


make sure the glass is not upside down, heard of that before. Make sure the scanner is actually making it to home position. that's what it sounds like it is. If it doesn't make it to home it will read paper sizes wrong and will do a lamp intensity check in the wrong spot and give 0225. when it uses the doc feed its going to move into position. keep an eye on it and see if indeed it stops in the proper area.
I'm not sure about the lamp being in the wrong position. You know, as much as you want to believe and trust your fellow techs, you still have to go over every detail he or she did and then move on.Even though they changed stuff doesn't mean they didn't boo boo or cause something else to happpen. I dont even assume a new board is good, i have to believe they are but sometimes even they are not. I would tend to believe its the position the lamp/scanner is in thats your problem. Be sure to check and input all values. double check the glass to see if the tech before the tech put in wrong, or even could be the wrong glass if it was changed. Look in the history book to see who was there last and what did they do. did it start after that. I'm just saying this because i would do all this. the answer is in front of you,( i tell myself) be calm and take your time, dont let the customer make you feel rushed. Stop and think after each thing you do and check and run the video in your head and re- analyze it. the 225 states the intensity is not right. It reflects back off a surface to know that. the white plate. thats all i can think of for now

Thanks, I agree with what you are saying about double checking the previous tech work. I changed the scanner home position sensor yesterday , it didn't seem to change anything but machine had not coded out in past day. Checked settings in service mode for ccd (all good) Did white plate adjustments. Am planning to do an rcon clear and reload just in case its corrupt from having pcb's swaped in and out. Currently has Rcon ver 2.02 (will try and find out if this is most current version). This problem arose weeks after system software upgrade , so I suspect this could be related. Ordered original size sensor as doc's on glass are still not recognized as right size.

Not sure if you are a tech or not and I'm not positive about the error codebut if it relates to the DF CIS home position then I have fixed numerous ones by oiling the shafts that the cis are on. They are located right by the motor that drives the cis in the df.

Hope this helps

[OtherTech]

Yes I am a tech but not familiar with the term cis? Do you mean the scan cable pulley shafts? eo225 is a lamp intensity error.(lamp intensity needing to be done at white plate means lamp position important) The fact that the machine does not recognize paper size on platen when the ADF is being closed is a possible related symptom.

E225 4080

Change the xenon lamp I have had this problem with an ir5055 and it was also pointing me to a faulty contact sensor in dadf s1.. This is an incorrect code for that is e225-0101 .Elsewhere it refers to 001 as scan lamp related . So i changed the lamp and have had no problems since

[OtherTech]

Thanks , lamp was changed but maybe I should try another(bad parts can be the worst nightmare to good troubleshooting) I am going to upgrade the system software from 54.01 to 79.01. I noticed in the tech info for the upgrade to 69.02 that E0225-001 codes were addresed(must occur 3 times before error displayed) Maybe this is the answer.

Document size sensing problem was original sensor plugged into wrong connector on pcb. There are 2 places to plug in , one for AB size the other for inch. Previous tech plugged in wrong place when switching bds!
