    Probably a dozen times over the years I've heard customers say that a copier or printer is blowing a fuse. Only once has it actually been a short in the copier (it was a Mita DC-152Z).

    Every other time it was an overloaded circuit, and the copier or printer was just the last straw. The worst of which was in a home office with only one circuit, which included 5 computers, various monitors, printers, shredders, a washing machine, and an electric dryer (and a Mita copier). A total of 95 amps of potential load. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      9000's are known power hogs and must have a dedicated outlet. i've seen them display flaky things and were fine once power was cycled. Do not run them on a surge protector and try to make sure its the only thing on the circuit. The LVPS can go bad, main motor, and of course the infamous False 13.20 error (clear all sensors, if there's still a problem, replaced Fuser and DC Controller simultaneously). Other than those things I haven't seen too many problems. After a million pages examine cables harnesses carefully. I had to replace the harness that goes to the Laser Scanner.
      Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Coke in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!".
