2007 Xerox Phaser 6130 Color Laser Printer Service Manual (P/N 701P47121)

This 454-page PDF contains the Xerox Phaser 6130 Color Laser Printer Service Manual, publication 701P47121, first printed in October 2007. It covers the internal architecture and repair of this single-pass color laser printer. The manual is intended for authorized Xerox service technicians and service partners and specifies product-specific certification for servicing.

The serial-number section identifies 6130_N and 6130_WN (HAT, 110 V engine) and 6130V_N and 6130V_WN (HAR, 220 V engine). It separates the revision digit from the five-digit serial field, assigning 30001–79999 to the N versions and 80000–99999 to the WN versions.

System Architecture & Diagnostic Coverage

This manual breaks down the tandem electrophotographic process, from initial paper feed through charging, exposure, development, and transfer phases. It also explains drum cleaning, excess toner collection, and Free Belt Nip Fusing (FBNF).

• Paper-feed repair: Feed and Separator Roller replacement, Drive Clutch Kit and Feed Solenoid removal, and fault isolation for tray, manual-feed, registration, and exit jams.
• Print-engine disassembly: Removal procedures for the Imaging Unit, Laser Unit, Dispenser Assembly, Transfer Unit, and Fuser, with illustrated parts lists for replacement identification.
• Resident diagnostics and Power On Self Test (POST): Service Mode tests for sensors, motors, clutches, solenoids, fans, and erase lamps. Engine Test Print helps distinguish Machine Control Unit (MCU) faults from Image Processor Board faults.
• Print-quality troubleshooting: Defect-specific routines address color mis-registration, streaking, spots, ghosting, and unfused images. The Contamination Check and Pitch Chart support repeating-defect diagnosis.
• Adjustments and calibrations: Automatic and manual color registration with the Color Registration Correction Chart, fast- and slow-scan parameter settings, and Fuser and transfer-belt counter resets.
• Electrical repair: AC/DC power-supply troubleshooting, interlock checks, and replacement procedures for the Low-Voltage Power Supply (LVPS) and High-Voltage Power Supply (HVPS).

The Error Messages and Codes section links control-panel messages and Chain Link codes to troubleshooting tables, applicable parts, and wiring references. General Troubleshooting also covers printers that will not reach Ready, blank control panels, and abnormal noise without a displayed code.

The theory section explains the interplay between Main Drive and Sub Drive assemblies, documenting gear engagement for both full-color and monochrome printing modes. It covers Humidity/Temperature Sensor feedback, toner-density control, and laser Auto Power Control (APC)—the printer’s automatic beam-intensity regulation.

Board Replacement, Firmware & Service Limits

MCU Board replacement coverage includes saving and restoring engine NVM through the Image Processor Board. Separate I/P Board reassembly notes address NVRAM-chip transfer and orientation. Calibration procedures also cover Print Meter and NVM initialization. Appendix A gives Boot Controller, Firmware Controller, and Firmware MPC update procedures; boot-code updates are USB-only.

Controller functions cover job recovery, print-volume management, and RAM Disk features such as Secure Print and Proof Print, with memory-expansion requirements. Optional DDR2 memory and the Multi-Protocol Network Card are covered. Software troubleshooting addresses the Windows, Macintosh, and UNIX/Linux environments documented in this 2007 edition.

Repair depth extends to upper/lower assembly separation for Feeder Assembly and HVPS access. The Laser Unit and Fuser procedures cover assembly replacement, not internal rebuilds. Prolonged light exposure can damage the Imaging Unit drums, while dragging or dropping that unit onto the Transfer Belt risks damaging the belt.

Component Specifications & Clearances

Electrical and environmental specifications sit alongside media limits, installation clearances, and image-geometry tolerances. Maintenance-item life ratings include usage assumptions rather than guaranteed replacement intervals.

The electrical wiring diagrams include DC Power Supply; Feeder, Manual Feed, & Registration; High Voltage Power Supply; and Controller. Plug/jack designators, locator maps, and signal descriptions connect these sheets to test points. Exploded-view diagrams and parts lists distinguish individually listed replacement parts from components grouped within a parent assembly.

Cleaning and maintenance coverage includes the RIP (Repair, Inspect, and Prevent) procedure, recommended toner-vacuum and light-protection equipment, and final checks with customer print jobs.

Important: Always consult a certified technician and disconnect power sources before servicing internal mechanical or electrical printer components.
