IS PID excess load error (error code: 000101)

Cause
  • State in which load of IS motor exceeds expected load
  • When rotated in the opposite direction to rotation direction
    (There was a sudden load error, and the motor rotated in the opposite direction in reaction to it)
  • State in which load of motor exceeds expected load, and motor does not rotate at all
Suspected cause
  • Foreign object remaining
  • Inksystem gear train part damaged
  • IS encoder failure
  • IS motor failure
  • Main Board Assy failure
Troubleshooting
Step Check and measure Yes No
1

Check the state of the Inksystem gear train parts
Check the following in the Inksystem gear train parts.

  • Is there anything such as a foreign object impeding the operation?
  • Are the Inksystem gear train parts damaged?

Is the result OK?

 Go to step 2
