are backed up in the PDF format. Supply the date to the user.)

In case of E7-91 - 94, the DIMM memory (DRAM) is

- Replace the MFPC PWB.
Cause
Mostly because the data inputted to the ASIC for
decoding are broken for some reasons.
There is an abnormality in the process of read/write
of the process data in the memory or the hard disk.
A great noise unexpectedly generated may be the
cause.
For the cases of FAX or Internet FAX reception data,
when broken data are saved, printing is performed
every time when the machine is booted, generating
an error repeatedly. (E7-91)
