Precautions
For Your Safety
To prevent severe injury and loss of life, read this section carefully before
servicing the Panasonic machine to ensure proper, and safe operation of your
machine. Please ensure that the machine is installed near a wall outlet, and
is easily accessible.
This section explains the Warnings and Cautions used in the machine and/or
this manual.
WARNING: Denotes a potential hazard that could result in serious injury or
death.
CAUTION: Denotes hazards that could result in minor injury or damage to the
machine.
This section also explains the Warnings and Cautions used in the machine
and/or this manual. These symbols are used to alert operators to a specific
operating procedure that must not be performed. These symbols are used to
alert operators to a specific operating procedure that must be emphasized in
order to operate the machine safely.
WARNING
Power and Ground Connection Cautions
Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a
contaminated connector can draw a significant amount of current that can
generate heat and eventually cause fire if left unattended over an extended
period of time. Always use the power cord provided with your machine. When an
extension power cord is required, always use a properly rated cord.
120 V/15 A or AC 220 – 240V/10 A If you use a cord with an unspecified current
rating, it may be underrated, and the machine, or plug may emit smoke,
orbecome hot to the touch. Do not attempt to repair, pull, bend, chafe or
otherwise damage the power cord. Do not place a heavy object on the cord. A
damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks. Never touch a power cord with
wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.
If the power cord is damaged, or insulated wires are exposed, contact the
authorized Panasonic dealer for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause
fire or electric shocks. Stop operation immediately if your machine emits
smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise, or abnormal smell, or if water is spilt
onto the machine. These conditions can cause fire. Immediately switch Off and
unplug the machine, and contact the authorized Panaso. nic dealer. Do not
disconnect or reconnect the machine while the power switch is in the On
position. Disconnecting a live connector can cause arcing, consequently
deforming the plug and cause fire. When disconnecting the machine, grasp the
plug instead of the cord. Pulling on a cord forcibly can damage it, and cause
fire, or an electric shock. When the machine is not used over an extended
period of time, switch it Off and unplug it. If an unused machine is left
connected to a power source for a long period, degraded insulation can cause
electric shocks, current leakage or fire. Be sure to switch Off, and unplug
the machine before accessing the interior of the machine for cleaning,
maintenance or fault clearance. Access to a live machine’s interior can cause
an electric shock.
5
Once a month, unplug the machine and check the power cord for the following.
If you notice any unusual condition, contact your authorized Pana.sonic dealer
The power cord is plugged firmly into the receptacle. The plug is not
excessively heated, rusted, or bent. The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
The cord is not cracked or frayed.
Operating Safeguards
Do not touch areas where these caution labels are attached to, the surface may
be very hot and may cause severe burns. Do not place any liquid container such
as a vase, or coffee cup on the machine. Spilt water can cause fire or shock
hazard. Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the machine.
If metal and flammable parts get into the machine, they can short-circuit
internal components, and cause fire or electric shocks. If debris (metal or
liquid) gets into the machine, switch Off and unplug the machine immediately.
Operating a debris-contaminated machine can cause fire or electric shock. Do
not try to alter the machine configuration or modify any parts. An
unauthorized modification can cause smoke or fire.
Consumable Safeguards
Never dispose of toner, toner cartridge, or a waste toner container into an
open flame. Toner remaining in the cartridge/bottle can cause an explosion,
burns and/or injuries. Keep button batteries/stamp out of the reach of
children to prevent chocking or poisoning. If a button battery/verification
stamp is swallowed accidentally, get medical treatment immediately.

CAUTION
Do not place a magnet near the safety switch of the machine. A magnet can
activate the machine accidentally resulting in injuries. Do not use a highly
flammable spray or solvent near the machine. It can cause fire.
When copying a thick document, do not use excessive force to press it against
the document glass. The glass may break and cause injuries. Never touch a
labeled area found on or near the heat roller. You can get burnt. If a sheet
of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, do not try to remove it when it is
hot, to avoid injuries or burns. Switch Off the machine immediately, and wait
until it cools down. Do not use conductive paper, e.g. folding paper, carbonic
paper and coated paper. When a paper jam occurs, they can cause a short
circuit and fire. Do not place any heavy object on the machine. An off-balance
machine can tip-over or the heavy object can fall, causing damage and/or
injuries. Keep the room ventilated when using the machine for an extended
period of time to minimize the ozone density in the air. When copying with the
document cover open, do not look directly at the exposure lamp. Direct eye
exposure can cause eye fatigue or damage. Pull out paper trays slowly to
prevent injuries.
When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in
the machine. A piece of paper remaining in the machine can cause fire. If a
sheet of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, or when clearing a jammed
paper that is difficult or impossible to see, do not try to remove it by
yourself. Doing so can cause injuries or burns. Switch Off the machine
immediately, and wait until it cools down.
If accessing the inner components of the machine to clear misfed paper, etc.,
exercise care not to touch heated areas, or you may get burned.
Consumable Safeguards WARNING
Never throw a toner cartridge into an open flame. Toner remaining in the
cartridge can cause an explosion and you can get burnt. Never throw toner, a
waste toner container, or a toner cartridge into an open flame. It can cause
an explosion and you can get burnt. Keep button batteries out of the reach of
children. If a button battery is swallowed accidentally, get medical treatment
immediately.
CAUTION
Never heat the OPC Drum, or scratch its surface. A heated, or scratched drum
can be hazardous to your health. Do not mix new and old batteries at the same
time, or batteries can burst or leak, causing fire or injuries. Be sure to use
the specified type of batteries only.
Ensure that batteries are installed with correct polarity. Incorrectly
installed batteries can burst or leak, resulting in spillage or injuries.

Yield: 5 K (5% coverage), 6 K Max Average yield is based on 5% coverage of the
printable area with repetitive printing of 10 pages (Letter/A4 size, single
side printing, default density). The yield of a Toner Cartridge varies
depending on the coverage, temperature, humidity, media, etc. Therefore, the
average yield cannot be guaranteed. Continuously printing 10% coverage of
printable area will reduce the yield of the Toner Cartridge to about half as
compared to 5% coverage printing. The maximum yield of the Toner Cartridge
will not exceed 6,000 pages by way of Digital Counter.

3.5.7. Firmware Emergency Recovery
The easiest method to recover the firmware in an Emergency Recovery routine is
to use the Master SD Memory Card method (1 SD Memory Card required if the SD
Memory Card capacity is Large enough size for all necessary Firmware).
If the Master SD Memory Card includes all necessary firmware as a package, all
necessary firmware can be recovered once which including PCL option
configurations, except the 2nd G3 Fax option.
After recovering, if optional 2nd G3 firmware is required, use the Network
Firmware Update Tool, the Local Firmware Update Tool or use the Master SD
Memory Card to update the firmware selecting the “Auto Mode” to the required
level.
If the unit does not boot up properly, follow the steps below: 1. Turn the
power OFF. Before proceeding to the next step, you must create the Master SD
Memory Card (read the appropriate sections first 3.5.5). 2. Turn the power On
while holding the [ENERGY SAVER] button. 3. When the green lamp on the front
panel turns On, release the [ENERGY SAVER] button.
The unit is now ready to accept the firmware code from Master SD Memory Card.
If there is additional 2nd G3 firmware code file to be updated, use the Master
SD Memory Card to update the firmware using the “Auto Mode” again.

4.6.2. Testing the TCP/IP Network
It is beyond the scope of this Service Manual to cover Networking in detail,
there are many excellent manuals on this subject, but we hope the information
in this section will aid with your troubleshooting efforts. In most cases, the
Network Administrator will be able to provide you with needed information or
assistance.
When encountering Network problems during an onsite service call or during the
installation stage, try to isolate the steps that are not being completed so
that you can quickly locate the components that don’t work. It is best to
organize your troubleshooting efforts by understanding what should be
happening, then you can trace the path and see where the problem is occurring.
In our case, we use TCP/IP for transportation of data from one system to
another, which involves a whole series of events occurring throughout a number
of different layers. As with all networking, TCP/IP works better when its
plugged in, therefore, start your troubleshooting by checking the Physical
Connectivity first, the cable(s).
In our examples, we’ll use several simple tools readily available in the DOS
command-line utility for troubleshooting. There are many other utilities
available for checking more detailed information, some are Free of charge,
others are available for a nominal fee.
1. System Diagram Model Ask the customer to provide you with the Pre-
Installation Information form, that was filled out by the Network
Administrator. A description or system diagram for the unit, including its
physical address, email server and DNS server is required.

2. Checking the Current Configuration Print the current unit Internet
Parameters configuration. Locate a PC connected to the same Subnet Mask as the
unit, then from the DOS Prompt, type the following command-line utility:
“ipconfig /all” for Windows 98/Me/XP/2000/NT.
Verify that the displayed Network configuration on the PC, matches the
following Internet Parameter settings of the unit:
Default Gateway IP Address: DNS Server IP Address: Subnet Mask: (whether it is
valid)
For Windows 98 / Me / XP / 2000 / NT The following example shows the output
after you type “ipconfig /all” at a command prompt:
C:>ipconfig /all

192.168.3.18
From the above examples, you know the Network configuration for the specified
Subnet Mask is as follows: IP Address: 192.168.3.4; Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0; Default Gateway (Default Router IP Address): 192.168.3.254; DNS
Server: 192.168.1.1 and the Domain Name: labo.mgcs.com (obtained from the Host
Name).
3. Using “PING” to Test Physical Connectivity The Packet Internet Groper
(PING) is a command-line tool included with every Microsoft TCP/IP client (any
DOS or Windows client with the TCP/IP protocol installed). PING is a simple
utility that is used to send a test packet to a specified IP Address or
Hostname, then, if everything is working properly, the packet is echoed back
(returned).
Sample command-line PINGing and parameters are shown below. There are several
available options that can be specified with the PING command. However, for
our examples, we will use two options (-n and -w) which are commonly used when
the response from the destination location is too long.
-n count : The number of echo requests that the command should send. The default is four. -w timeout : Specifies the period PING will wait for the reply before deciding that the host is not
responding.

Network), the PING option command default value must be changed to compensate
for the expected delayed response. e.g.

4. Tracing a Packet Route Another useful command-line utility is TRACERT,
which is used to verify the route a packet takes to reach its destination. The
result shows each router crossed and how long it took to get through each
particular router to reach the specified destination.
The time it takes to get through a particular router is calculated three times
and displayed for each router hop along with the IP Address of each router
crossed. If a FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) is available, it will be
displayed as well.
This utility is useful for two diagnostic purposes: a. To detect whether a
particular router is malfunctioning along a known path. For example, if you
know that packets on a network always go through London to get from New York
to Berlin, but the communication is failing. A TRACERT to the Berlin address
shows all the hops up to the point where the router in London should respond.
If it does not respond, the time values are shown with an asterisk (*),
indicating the packet timed out. b. To determine whether a router is slow and
needs to be upgraded or additional routers should be installed on the network.
You can determine this by simply comparing the time it takes for a packet to
get through a particular router. If its return time is significantly higher
than the other routers, it should be upgraded.
To use this utility, from the DOS command-line, type: tracert <IP Address or
Hostname>
Tracing the Route to SMTP/POP Server
C:WINDOWS>tracert sv2.labo.pcc.com Tracing route to sv2.labo.pcc.com

5. Managing Network Route Tables In the simplest case a router connects two
network segments. In this model, the system used to join the two segments
needs to know only about these segments.
The routing table for router R1 in this case is simple; the following table
shows its key routes:
Network Address 192.168.3.0 192.168.1.0
Netmask 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.3.254 192.168.1.253
Interface 192.168.3.254 192.168.1.253
When the Unit at 192.168.3.5 attempts to communicate with the Unit at
192.168.1.x, IP performs the ANDing process to find two things: The local
network ID is 192.168.3.0, and the destination network ID is not. This means,
that the destination host is not on the local network.
IP, is responsible to find a route to the remote network, and therefore, it
consults the routing table. Here, the local host normally determines that the
next step in the route is the Default Gateway, and sends the packet to router
R1.
The router R1, receives the packet. After determining that the packet is for
another host and not the router itself, it checks the routing table. It finds
the route to 192.168.1.0 and sends the packet through the interface to the
Unit at 192.168.1.x, which receives the packet. This is a simple route that
took only a single hop.
When another network is added as the number of hosts grows, it gets
complicated, and the systems on the most distant networks cannot communicate.
When the router receives a packet in this case, it cannot find a route to the
remote network. It then discards the packet and a message indicating
“destination host unreachable” is sent to the originator.
Here, is where the ROUTE command-line utility is useful when dealing with more
than two networks, and is used by Administrators to statically manage a route
table by adding, deleting, changing and clearing the route table. It has a
number of options that are used to manipulate the routing tables, some are
shown below:
· MASK If this switch is present, the next parameter is interpreted as the
netmask parameter.
· Netmask If included, specifies a sub-net mask value to be associated with
this route entry. If not specified, it defaults to 255.255.255.255.
· Gateway Specifies the gateway.
· METRIC Specifies the metric / cost for the destination.
All symbolic names used for the destination are looked up in the network
database file NETWORKS. The symbolic names for the gateway are looked up the
host name database file HOSTS.
UF-7000/8000 UF-7100/8100
When the packet does not reach the specified destination even when the
physical connection is properly made, check the registered persistent routes
on the same subnet as the Unit by typing “route print” in the DOS command-
line. The output display is shown below:
6. Host Name Query on DNS Server Windows XP/2000/NT 4.0 also has a tool that
enables you to test DNS to verify that it is working properly. This utility is
not available on Windows 98/Me. From the DOS command-line, type “NSLOOKUP” to
display the following output:
UF-7000/8000 UF-7100/8100
7. Testing Unit Using the TELNET Command TELNET is a terminal emulation
protocol. TELNET enables PCs and workstations to function as dumb terminals in
sessions with hosts on internet works. From Windows 98/Me/XP/2000/NT, use the
TELNET to test the communication of TCP/IP and SMTP Protocol manually to the
Unit. This method eliminates the SMTP Server.
For better understanding, type “telnet” in the DOS Command-line to bring up
the Telnet screen. Then, click on the Terminal menu and on Preferences, check
the “Local Echo” and “Block Cursor” radio dials and click on the OK button.
Click on the Connect menu, then click on Remote System. Enter “25” in the
