Kodak i5200 scanner how to disassemble and assemble

If your i5200 scanner is not functioning properly, you may need to cycle power and clean the lower imaging guide. To do this, first power off the scanner and unplug it from the wall. Then, use a soft cloth or cotton swab to clean the lower imaging guide. Once the guide is clean, plug the scanner back in and power it on. If this does not resolve the issue, then you may need to contact a qualified technician who can inspect the scanner and make the necessary repairs.

Hello
You can check the following:
1. The second scan image interface cable
2. The second scan image
Which is usually the interface cable fault

Each strip has it's own codes, when you swapped them you probably burnt the drivers out. I am surprised that they would plug in to different LCD arrays. You will probably have to replace the drivers for each strip. You can get the number off them and order them from eBay or I use [www.alldatasheets.com]. You can enter the part # there and it will give you the data sheets on each one. As a last resort contact the mfg. Their tech's can advise you better than anyone but I am sure replacing the BDC IC's will fix the problem.

Error 55: "Lamp I2C error reading from DAC". Operator log message: "Cycle power, if problem persists, call service.". This error is involves communication errors between the LED AY and the DAC. A couple things can be done to alleviate this issue but unfortunately, as a user, you can only perform the first step. The other steps require a Kodak Field Engineer to complete. First step, upgrade your Firmware. Firmware updates can be found at the following web page: http://graphics.kodak.com/DocImaging/US/en/Support_Center/Document_Scanners/Production/i5200_Scanner/Support/Drivers_And_Downloads/i5000_Series_Scanner_Firmware/index.htm. If you still experience issues following the firmware upgrade, call Kodak Service & Support to schedule a field engineer to be dispatched to your site.

Check with the dealer who is selling you the part, to see if they can provide you with the required pages for disassembly, repair & re-assembly from the Kodak Service Manual. You should be aware that in some cases when this repair is made, it requires the technician to re-calibrate the auto-focus system. To do that, you will need 2 special tools (a "Target Slide" and a "Range Slide"), that were manufactured by Kodak for use on the assembly line and by their authorized warranty repair dealers. You MAY need those, as well.
As you can imagine, all this can begin to get expensive (if you can still get the special tools).... It may be more economical to try to locate another used projector on the internet... Here are 2 dealers I can recommend: For parts & tools - www.micro-tools.com
For used projectors - www.vinevalleyimaging.com

Good Luck!! Jim

Hello,

This guide shows how to disassemble the scanner assembly to clean the mirrors.

http://www.ccl-la.com/blog/index.php/hp-laserjet-3330-scanner-warming-up-error/

Replace the CCD (if you can find one.. They used to be plentiful and cheap - sub $20). Otherwise, you'll need to replace the lens assembly. The camera is modular, so most repairs you can do yourself. There are videos on disassembly on YouTube.

I highly doubt the main board is going bad. There is a huge difference between an electronic high pitched noise vs a scanner noise. Does the noise only occur while scanning or when parts are moving? If yes, then a scanner noise. If the noise is on all the time even when idle, then you have an electronic noise like an open or leaking capacitor.
On this particular model the seperation idle roller builds up with paper dust and will cause a high pitched noise. Like nails on a chalk board. Very simple fix. Open cover. Grab seperation assembly and pull toward the tray at the front of the scanner, it will pop loose then lift up. Make sure to pop it back into place good. Be forcefull. With the assembly in hand, clean, and lube idle roll. It is the first metal/plastic roll the paper touches at the tray entrance. Also clean the shafts and bushings for the rubber rolls. Reassemble and you are all set. Happens on EVERY I420 scanner I have seen.

Hello,

Search on internet for service manual, where you can find instruction to disassembling the printer.

You can fix this in home only if you can disassembly the scanner section.Open the top cover and remove the scanner glass. Then you must remove the scanner section.Open it cover and carefully clean the ash from all mirrors.Then assembly everything and scanner will work again.
