It keeps flashing check image drum drum missing, i had paper jam took out drum to remove it then replaced it but keeps flashing this message

If all the lights are blinking on your Fuji Xerox 203A printer, it is indicating a "Fatal Error" or "Unknown Error" that has occurred.
Here are some possible reasons and troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Paper jam - Open the printer cover and check for any paper jams. If found, clear the jam and close the cover.
2. Toner cartridge issue - Remove the toner cartridge and check if it is empty or low. If so, replace the toner cartridge with a new one.
3. Imaging drum issue - Remove the imaging drum and check if it is damaged or has reached the end of its life. If so, replace the imaging drum.
4. Connectivity issue - Check the printer connections to ensure they are securely plugged in.
5. Firmware issue - Try updating the firmware on the printer to see if that resolves the issue.

If none of these steps solve the issue, you may need to contact Fuji Xerox customer support for further assistance.

I'm not familiar with your model, BUT this is a laser printer. That being said, you have toner and not ink. If it's jamming at the drum, and you still see an image on the drum, then it sounds like you have an issue with the discharge corona that should release the image from the drum. You are likely seeing part of the image from the previous page.

Paper light flashing could mean several things on this machine.

There could be a paper jam in the machine. Open the front cover remove the drum and toner and look in the machine. You can also check in between the drum and toner by removing the toner from the drum. Open the back cover and look for a Jam as well.

Try putting a piece of paper in the manual feed tray which is right above the paper tray, sometimes on certain documents the margins are too big and asks to go into the manual feed slot.

Hello ,

Please follow the below steps to try and clear this message.

1. Turn the power off on the unit.
2. Open the front and back cover of the unit.
3. Remove the drum and toner cartridge from the unit.
4. Check thoroughly inside for any paper jams or any other foreign objects and remove them.
5. Reinsert the drum and toner and close the front and back cover.
6. Turn the unit back on.

If the light keeps flashing you will want to check to see if you need to feed paper through the manual feed.

The manual feed is the opening on the front of the printer, just place a page there.

This should clear the error message on the display screen and allow you to resume normal use of the printer.

Thanks,

Pat

Feed Jam or Exit Jam 1. Remove the tray and clear any misfed sheets as given above.

2. Open the top cover.


WARNING! The fuser area will be hot. This area is clearly marked. Do not touch it.

CAUTION! Never expose the image drum unit to light for more than 5 minutes. Never expose the image drum unit to direct sunlight. Always hold the image drum unit by the ends or from the top. Never touch the surface of the green drum inside the image drum unit.
3. Carefully lift out the image drum, complete with the toner cartridge. Be careful not to touch or scratch the green drum surface.

4. Remove any jammed sheets from the paper path.

5. Re-install the image drum complete with toner cartridge, ensuring that it correctly locates into the slots on each side of the printer.

6. Close the top cover and press down to latch it closed.

7. The printer will warm up and commence printing when ready. he page lost through the jam will normally be reprinted.

NOTE If the edge of the jammed paper protrudes (or can be seen) from the exit, reinstall the image drum, close the top cover and switch the printer on. Remove the jammed paper from the exit when the exit roller begins rotating after a few seconds after switching on. However, if the jammed paper cannot be removed, contact a service representative.

Open the access door, move the carriage if necessary, and then remove any jammed paper. On some Laserjet printers, you might need to remove the toner cartridge and/or imaging drum to access the paper jam. If your printer has a paper path cover behind the carriage, remove the cover, and then remove any jammed paper

Make sure that all rollers in the paper tray is working properly. If not, then this might be the reason why your having this issue. Try calling your manufacturer to have it replaced, if it's still under warranty.

you have take out zamed paper from the printer from the back side of the printer by ejecting the try from back side if it present. or pull out your tonner and then pull out the zame paper.

You need to clean the drum surface as well the charger roller. Removing the paper jammed can caused the surface get the dirty by toner split.

It sounds like the problem is with cyan drum, drum cover broken?, The fix I'd follow without looking is replace cyan drum (or possible remove drum cover completely if broken) but it could also less likely be the Transport Unit aka "shinny" it just clicks out too for inspection

Keep fingers off drum's and trans unit surface.

Service manual is japanesse english limited stuff, trust me they are not much help, try the user manual it at least has the names of stuff. User manual is on disc that comes with printer or via download from oki's web support page.
