4. Open the printer registration cover, and clean the OHP sensor with a dry, lint-free cloth.

-> Open the registration cover, and pass a white piece of paper over the OHP sensor. The number on the LCD should increase by one each time the sensor is covered.

-> Press Cancel to stop the test, and then press Menu to exit the diagnostics.

-> Turn the printer off, and then back on to resume normal operation.

7. If the error still occurs, or the diagnostics fail, please contact
