Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

When powering up the bizhub 228, if the scanner carriage moves violently or sticks at one end, the start sensor is not providing the expected response. My bizhub 228 shows C-2252 error constantly? The issue might lie in the carriage drive pulley.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Disconnect the machine from the main power source.
  2. Remove the top scanner glass to view the steel cable and pulleys.
  3. Clean the unit rails with a lint-free cloth.
  4. Verify that the carriage cable is not frayed or stuck at any point in the path.
  5. Turn the machine on; if it does not resolve, perform the 'Scanner Adjustment' procedure in service mode.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Lubricate the rails with high-quality silicone grease once a year. Avoid bumping the scanner surface. Perform periodic cleaning to remove dust that can be absorbed by the gears.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

This C-2252 error is highly technical; if rail cleaning does not work, it is necessary to replace the scanner stepper motor or the main control board.

Frequently asked questions

This error indicates that the scanner cannot complete its initialization cycle. It is generally a physical fault in the carriage movement.

If the printer works but the scanner does not, you may be able to print over network, but scanning will be disabled until the motor is repaired.

This unit uses the original TN-118 long-life toner to ensure print quality.

It occurs mainly in units with years of heavy use where mechanical scanner components begin to wear out.
