Power Safety Precautions
Power Source
For 115 VAC printers, do not apply more than 135 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. For 230 VAC printers, do not apply more than 254 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. Use only the specified power cord and connector. This manual assumes that the reader is a qualified service technician.
Plug the three-wire power cord (with grounding prong) into a grounded AC outlet only. If necessary, contact a licensed electrician to install a properly grounded outlet. If the product loses its ground connection, contact with conductive parts may cause an electrical shock. A protective ground connection by way of the grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.
Disconnecting Power
Warning
Turning the power off using the power switch does not completely de-energize the printer. You must also disconnect the power cord from the printer’s AC inlet. Disconnect the power cord by pulling the plug, not the cord.
Disconnect the power cord in the following cases:
■if the power cord or plug is frayed or otherwise damaged,
■if any liquid or foreign material is spilled into the product,
■if the printer is exposed to any excess moisture,
■if the printer is dropped or damaged,
■if you suspect that the product needs servicing or repair,
■whenever you clean the product.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
Some semiconductor components, and the respective sub-assemblies that contain them, are vulnerable to damage by Electrostatic discharge (ESD). These components include Integrated Circuits (ICs), Large-Scale Integrated circuits (LSIs), field-effect transistors and other semiconductor chip components. The following techniques will reduce the occurrence of component damage caused by static electricity.
Be sure the power is off to the chassis or circuit board, and observe all other safety precautions.
■Immediately before handling any semiconductor components assemblies, drain the electrostatic charge from your body. This can be accomplished by touching an earth ground source or by wearing a wrist strap device connected to an earth ground source. Wearing a wrist strap will also prevent accumulation of additional bodily static charges. Be sure to remove the wrist strap before applying power to the unit under test to avoid potential shock.
■After removing a static sensitive assembly from its anti-static bag, place it on a grounded conductive surface. If the anti-static bag is conductive, you may ground the bag and use it as a conductive surface.
■Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage some devices.
■Do not remove a replacement component or electrical sub-assembly from its protective package until you are ready to install it.
■Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
■Minimize body motions when handling unpacked replacement devices. Motion such as your clothes brushing together, or lifting a foot from a carpeted floor can generate enough static electricity to damage an electro-statically sensitive device
■Handle IC’s and EPROM’s carefully to avoid bending pins.
■Pay attention to the direction of parts when mounting or inserting them on Printed Circuit Boards (PCB’s).

Printer Introduction and Overview
The Xerox Phaser 7400 Color Printer Service Manual is the primary document used to repair, maintain, and troubleshoot this printer. For manual updates, Service Bulletins, knowledge base, etc., see www.xerox.com/office/7400support. For further technical support, contact your assigned Xerox Technical Support for this product.
s7400-301
The Xerox Phaser 7400 Color Printer is a single pass, electrophotographic design, using light emitting diodes (LED) for image exposure. The Phaser 7400 supports PostScript 3 and PCL5c page description languages. Print performance for A4 paper is 40 pages per minute (ppm) monochrome, 36 ppm for full color in 1-sided or 2-sided modes. Full color prints are produced via consecutively transferring the subtractive primaries (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) directly to paper. Resolutions of up to 600 x 1200 dots per inch (dpi), 32-level grayscale print is applicable at 600×600 dpi. The base configuration (Phaser 7400N) features USB 2.0 and 10/100baseT Ethernet Ports, 256 MB of memory, a 250-sheet multi-purpose Tray 1 (MPT), a 550-sheet input tray (Tray 2), a 500-sheet facedown Top Output Tray, and a 250-sheet faceup Side Output Tray.
Phaser 7400 printer options add memory, paper capacity and functionality. For configurations not originally equipped, an internal Hard Drive is available for font storage, storing print files, job collation, proof, personal, and secure print support. A selection of RAM memory upgrades are available to raise the installed quantity to the 1 GB maximum. A 1650-Sheet High-Capacity Feeder (HCF) is available with three, 550-sheet universal trays. A 550-Sheet Feeder (Tray 3) Lower Tray Assembly (LTA) is also available. On the output side, a 1000-Sheet Finisher provides punching, stapling, saddle stitch, and offset stacking raising the output total to 1750 sheets. A Duplex Unit is available to add automatic 2-sided printing for supported paper sizes from all trays.

Metered Printing
Metered printing (PagePack), involves the combination of control software and specialized Toner Cartridges to meter printer activity for billing purposes. The Configuration page lists Metered Toner as Enabled when metering is enabled.
Metered Operation
When a metered printer is initialized at first power-up, the customer sets the printer to Metered operation using a unique, factory-supplied, 4-digit PIN. Once set to Metered operation, the control software performs the following:
1.The Mode and PIN-entered values in Engine Control Board NVRAM are set.
2.The Control Panel momentarily displays “Metered Toner is now enabled”, then returns to “Ready” (if no other errors).
3.The First Time Tips pages and the Configuration page are printed.
If an incorrect PIN is entered, “Incorrect numeric password” displays with a prompt “Retry” or “Do not retry.” Retry returns to the enter prompt, “Do not retry” returns to the Replace [C][M][Y][K] Toner Cartridge error message. The error persists until the correct PIN is entered.
Note
The Hidden Service menu provides an Enable Metered Toner option to restore the Metered mode parameters to NVRAM should they become lost or corrupt.
Metered Toner Cartridges
To support metered printing, metered Toner Cartridges are available in all four colors. When a metered Toner Cartridge is installed in a printer not set to Metered operation, the printer displays the Replace [C][M][Y][K] Toner Cartridge error. If a metered Toner Cartridge is placed into a printer manufactured before metering was available, the printer displays Replace Incorrect Toner Cartridge. All other combinations of normal or metered printer and cartridges are accepted without warning or error.
Diagnostics Mode
Service Diagnostics does not provide the utilities to set or clear Metered NVRAM values. Service Diagnostics does not check these values and does not display the current status of these values. However, the Configuration page does identify the printer setting as mentioned above.
Note
When replacing the Engine Control Board from a metered printer, exchange NVRAM devices or use the Save/Restore utilities in Service Diagnostics to preserve the NVRAM settings. The Mode and PIN-entered values are not affected by NVRAM reset utilities.

Phaser 7400 Operational Overview
The Phaser 7400 Color Printer is a full-color LED printer using electrophotographic recording principals to place a full color image onto the print media. The system, as it appears in the following illustration, contains four Imaging Units comprised of a drum and developing unit for each color Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK), and uses a Transfer Unit to transfer the toner image of each color onto print media producing full-color prints.
The figure below illustrates the relative position of components involved in the printing process.

Power Safety Precautions
Power Source
For 115 VAC printers, do not apply more than 135 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. For 230 VAC printers, do not apply more than 254 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. Use only the specified power cord and connector. This manual assumes that the reader is a qualified service technician.
Plug the three-wire power cord (with grounding prong) into a grounded AC outlet only. If necessary, contact a licensed electrician to install a properly grounded outlet. If the product loses its ground connection, contact with conductive parts may cause an electrical shock. A protective ground connection by way of the grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.
Disconnecting Power
Warning
Turning the power off using the power switch does not completely de-energize the printer. You must also disconnect the power cord from the printer’s AC inlet. Disconnect the power cord by pulling the plug, not the cord.
Disconnect the power cord in the following cases:
■if the power cord or plug is frayed or otherwise damaged,
■if any liquid or foreign material is spilled into the product,
■if the printer is exposed to any excess moisture,
■if the printer is dropped or damaged,
■if you suspect that the product needs servicing or repair,
■whenever you clean the product.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
Some semiconductor components, and the respective sub-assemblies that contain them, are vulnerable to damage by Electrostatic discharge (ESD). These components include Integrated Circuits (ICs), Large-Scale Integrated circuits (LSIs), field-effect transistors and other semiconductor chip components. The following techniques will reduce the occurrence of component damage caused by static electricity.
Be sure the power is off to the chassis or circuit board, and observe all other safety precautions.
■Immediately before handling any semiconductor components assemblies, drain the electrostatic charge from your body. This can be accomplished by touching an earth ground source or by wearing a wrist strap device connected to an earth ground source. Wearing a wrist strap will also prevent accumulation of additional bodily static charges. Be sure to remove the wrist strap before applying power to the unit under test to avoid potential shock.
■After removing a static sensitive assembly from its anti-static bag, place it on a grounded conductive surface. If the anti-static bag is conductive, you may ground the bag and use it as a conductive surface.
■Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage some devices.
■Do not remove a replacement component or electrical sub-assembly from its protective package until you are ready to install it.
■Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
■Minimize body motions when handling unpacked replacement devices. Motion such as your clothes brushing together, or lifting a foot from a carpeted floor can generate enough static electricity to damage an electro-statically sensitive device
■Handle IC’s and EPROM’s carefully to avoid bending pins.
■Pay attention to the direction of parts when mounting or inserting them on Printed Circuit Boards (PCB’s).

Printer Introduction and Overview
The Xerox Phaser 7400 Color Printer Service Manual is the primary document used to repair, maintain, and troubleshoot this printer. For manual updates, Service Bulletins, knowledge base, etc., see www.xerox.com/office/7400support. For further technical support, contact your assigned Xerox Technical Support for this product.
s7400-301
The Xerox Phaser 7400 Color Printer is a single pass, electrophotographic design, using light emitting diodes (LED) for image exposure. The Phaser 7400 supports PostScript 3 and PCL5c page description languages. Print performance for A4 paper is 40 pages per minute (ppm) monochrome, 36 ppm for full color in 1-sided or 2-sided modes. Full color prints are produced via consecutively transferring the subtractive primaries (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) directly to paper. Resolutions of up to 600 x 1200 dots per inch (dpi), 32-level grayscale print is applicable at 600×600 dpi. The base configuration (Phaser 7400N) features USB 2.0 and 10/100baseT Ethernet Ports, 256 MB of memory, a 250-sheet multi-purpose Tray 1 (MPT), a 550-sheet input tray (Tray 2), a 500-sheet facedown Top Output Tray, and a 250-sheet faceup Side Output Tray.
Phaser 7400 printer options add memory, paper capacity and functionality. For configurations not originally equipped, an internal Hard Drive is available for font storage, storing print files, job collation, proof, personal, and secure print support. A selection of RAM memory upgrades are available to raise the installed quantity to the 1 GB maximum. A 1650-Sheet High-Capacity Feeder (HCF) is available with three, 550-sheet universal trays. A 550-Sheet Feeder (Tray 3) Lower Tray Assembly (LTA) is also available. On the output side, a 1000-Sheet Finisher provides punching, stapling, saddle stitch, and offset stacking raising the output total to 1750 sheets. A Duplex Unit is available to add automatic 2-sided printing for supported paper sizes from all trays.

*All configurations have two memory slots supporting 256 MB and 512 MB cards, up to a maximum of 1 GB.
**Trays 1 and 2 are standard on all configurations. All configurations support
additional paper trays in the following combinations: One 550-Sheet Feeder (Tray 3)
One 1650-Sheet Feeder (Trays 3, 4, and 5 or 4,5, and 6)
One 550-Sheet Feeder (Tray 3) and one 1650-Sheet Feeder (Trays 4, 5, and 6)
*** Requires a Hard Drive and a total of 4 optional trays for fitment.
Metered Printing
Metered printing (PagePack), involves the combination of control software and specialized Toner Cartridges to meter printer activity for billing purposes. The Configuration page lists Metered Toner as Enabled when metering is enabled.
Metered Operation
When a metered printer is initialized at first power-up, the customer sets the printer to Metered operation using a unique, factory-supplied, 4-digit PIN. Once set to Metered operation, the control software performs the following:
1.The Mode and PIN-entered values in Engine Control Board NVRAM are set.
2.The Control Panel momentarily displays “Metered Toner is now enabled”, then returns to “Ready” (if no other errors).
3.The First Time Tips pages and the Configuration page are printed.
If an incorrect PIN is entered, “Incorrect numeric password” displays with a prompt “Retry” or “Do not retry.” Retry returns to the enter prompt, “Do not retry” returns to the Replace [C][M][Y][K] Toner Cartridge error message. The error persists until the correct PIN is entered.
Note
The Hidden Service menu provides an Enable Metered Toner option to restore the Metered mode parameters to NVRAM should they become lost or corrupt.
Metered Toner Cartridges
To support metered printing, metered Toner Cartridges are available in all four colors. When a metered Toner Cartridge is installed in a printer not set to Metered operation, the printer displays the Replace [C][M][Y][K] Toner Cartridge error. If a metered Toner Cartridge is placed into a printer manufactured before metering was available, the printer displays Replace Incorrect Toner Cartridge. All other combinations of normal or metered printer and cartridges are accepted without warning or error.
Diagnostics Mode
Service Diagnostics does not provide the utilities to set or clear Metered NVRAM values. Service Diagnostics does not check these values and does not display the current status of these values. However, the Configuration page does identify the printer setting as mentioned above.
Note
When replacing the Engine Control Board from a metered printer, exchange NVRAM devices or use the Save/Restore utilities in Service Diagnostics to preserve the NVRAM settings. The Mode and PIN-entered values are not affected by NVRAM reset utilities.

Phaser 7400 Operational Overview
The Phaser 7400 Color Printer is a full-color LED printer using electrophotographic recording principals to place a full color image onto the print media. The system, as it appears in the following illustration, contains four Imaging Units comprised of a drum and developing unit for each color Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK), and uses a Transfer Unit to transfer the toner image of each color onto print media producing full-color prints.
The figure below illustrates the relative position of components involved in the printing process.
