Q: reconstrcted laserwriter ps 4/600

Hey there,

after reconstruction of my laserwriter 4/600 he has got a
window that he (the printer) fixes an temprature problem.

see post below of deconstruction.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2101455

I'm sure I build everything right but I have 6 screws left ouside.

is there nay screw which is maybe important for the temprature?, (for example there was shiny red screw, where I didn't no where it was originally.)

now afer initial noise and the first try of printing he pop ups the window
"the printer is fixing a temprature problem" he is blinking constantly in the middle led.

is there any solution?

thanks alot, I love it so much and it would be really bad when I can't fix it.

greetings from germany

    The message:

    "Fixing Temperature Malfunction"

    Is a terrible choice of words in any language.

    What it is telling you is that there is a problem with the Fixing \[Fusing] temperature. It is not attempting to fix the problem, only reporting that the last roller is not getting up to the required 440 degrees Fahrenheit to fix \fuse] the toner to the paper.

    If you have never seen this problem before, I suggest you have made a mistake in reconnecting the AC Power Supply. If some of your "extra" screws have very large heads, then the Fuser assembly may not be connected well enough to get a good Earth Ground.

    thank you very much

    the suggestion with the screws where good
    but I don't know if there are still some missing somewhere it doesn't look like it.

    so I got another error now which says "fixing tempe" wow what a crazy thing.

    when he try's to print something he makes the normal noise and then he stops immadetly.

    he allready was printing one white paper at the first test(i think because the tuner is empty)

    a picture of the error is here:
