    FS-1118MFP error code C3200

    doe's anyone know what error code C3200 is on the Kyocera FS-1118MFP?
    when i scan for copy or fax, just sometimes it is stuck, and i get this code.
    is it the feeder or the scaner?
    thanks for your assistance.

      C3200 is an exposure lamp problem. The simplest explanation would be a bad exposure lamp or inverter. More exotic, but still possible, is very cold environment, dirty AC power, a bad CCD, or a bad main PCB.

      I'd address them in that order.

      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          more info

          Thank you Blackcat for your assistance and info.
          i've checked and found that if i try to scan when the top of the scanner (with the glass) if off, i get this error code. in this case the lamp is under the calibration white strip, so when there is no reflection this error is presented.
          i saw that the optics are dirty and cleaning it solved the problem.
          I talked to a service manager of a large firm in Israel, and he told me that cleaning the optics is what they usualy do to solve it, and in addition, they type in the service mode code U078 to reset it.
          I don't have the service manual, so I don't know what it code 078.

          thanks again

              U074 Adjusting the DP input light luminosity

              There is no service mode U078 but I think that it is U074

              U074 Adjusting the DP input light luminosity
              Description
              Adjusts the luminosity of the exposure lamp for scanning originals from the DP.
              Purpose
              Used if the exposure amount differs significantly between when scanning an original on the contact glass and
              when scanning an original from the DP.
              Method
              Press the enter key.
              Setting
              1. Change the setting using the left/right cursor keys.
              Display Description Setting range Initial setting
              Adjust Data DP input light luminosity 0 to 8 1
              Increasing the setting makes the luminosity higher, and decreasing it makes the luminosity lower.
              2. Press the enter key. The value is set.
              Test print mode
              While this maintenance item is being performed, copying from an original can be made in test print mode.
              1. Press the system menu/counter key. The machine enters the test print mode.
              2. Set the original and press the start key.
              * The test printing, however, cannot be stopped until the preset number of sheets is printed.
              3. To return to the indication for setting, press the system menu/counter key.
              Completion
              Press the back key. The indication for selecting a maintenance item No. appears.

                  Thanks Rune for the info.
                  What you wrote is very logical, but the service manager i talked to said several times that it should be 078. I'm going to try and type 078 on a machine and see what I get.
                  I'll update here.

                      Hi All.

                      I've cleaned the optics and the error stoped.
                      In addition, I've set U087 to no.

                      On two machines, the error didn't repeat at all.

                      Have a great week...

                          Could someone tell how to change U078 to no?

                          Thanks
