My sharp copier AR-5316, is showing error message E7. How do I clear it and solve the problem. Please I need urgent assistance.

Hi Zihaalsan,

Normally Sharp Error Codes are 4 characters. It should be E7 and then 2 more numbers.
The E7 family of codes could be a duplex issue, a Laser issue or a few other options. You won't be able to clear the error code on your one. I suggest calling on a local dealer to assist.
If you give me the rest of the code I can tell you exactly what is causing it.

The service manual was not available for the AL-2021 but the error codes are the same for the AR-5316

Try this sequence


Press: "Clear", "Exposure Select Key", "Clear", "Exposure Select Key", "26", "Start Key", "39", "Start Key"

there IS another subcode besides E7 try holding the stop or start or clear key you will probably see some different #'s
