Error Name/Error Condition/Major Cause/Solution

SC443-00

C

Image transfer encoder error/Image transfer unit set fault

During encoder count of the transfer motor, if there is no effective edge interrupt for 1.5 sec, and there is an overflow for

1.5 seconds consecutively, it is determined that there is an encoder error, SC443-00 is logged, and the system shifts to FG control without stopping the transfer motor.

This error does not occur in this machine, because it does not have an encoder.

Encoder defective

Transfer motor defective

Connector disconnected

Harness broken

Replace the image transfer unit

Replace the transfer motor

Reset the connector

Replace the harness

Ensure that SP2-920-07 to 009 is set to "1(FG)". It must not be set to "0".
