Precautions for Dis/Reassembly


Be sure to unplug the copier from the outlet before attempting to service the copier. The basic rule is not to operate the copier anytime during disassembly. If it is absolutely necessary to run the copier with its covers removed, use care not to allow your clothing to be caught in revolving parts such as the timing belt and gears. Before attempting to replace parts and unplug connectors, make sure that the power cord of the copier has been unplugged from the wall outlet. Be sure to use the Interlock Switch Actuating Jig whenever it is necessary to actuate the Interlock Switch with the covers left open or removed. Do not plug in or unplug print jacks on the PWB or connect or disconnect the PWB connectors while power is being supplied to the copier. Never use flammable sprays near the copier. A battery (lithium, nickel-cadmium, etc.) is used in this machine. Do not charge or short circuit it and make sure of the correct polarity at replacement. A used battery should be disposed of according to the local regulations and never be discarded casually or left unattended at the user's premises. When reassembling parts, make sure that the correct screws (size, type) and toothed washer are used in the correct places. If it becomes necessary to replace the thermal fuse or any other fuse mounted on a board, be sure to use one of the rating marked on the blown fuse. Always note the rating marked on the fuse, as the rating and mounting site or number used are subject to change without notice.

Precautions for Circuit Inspection


Never create a closed circuit across connector pins except those specified in the text and on the printed circuit. When creating a closed circuit and measuring a voltage across connector pins specified in the text, be sure to use the GND wire.

PS-2

Handling of PWBs
1. During Transportation/Storage: During transportation or when in storage, new P .W. Boards must not be indiscriminately removed from their protective conductive bags. Do not store or place P.W. Boards in a location exposed to direct sunlight and high temperature. When it becomes absolutely necessary to remove a Board from its conductive bag or case, always place it on its conductive mat in an area as free as possible from static electricity. Do not touch the pins of the ICs with your bare hands. Protect the PWBs from any external force so that they are not bent or damaged. 2. During Inspection/Replacement: Avoid checking the IC directly with a multimeter; use connectors on the Board. Never create a closed circuit across IC pins with a metal tool. Before unplugging connectors from the P.W. Boards, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the outlet. When removing a Board from its conductive bag or conductive case, do not touch the pins of the ICs or the printed pattern. Place it in position by holding only the edges of the Board. When touching the PWB, wear a wrist strap and connect its cord to a securely grounded place whenever possible. If you cannot wear a wrist strap, touch a metal part to discharge static electricity before touching the PWB. Note that replacement of a PWB may call for readjustments or resetting of particular items.

Handling of Other Parts


The magnet roller generates a strong magnetic field. Do not bring it near a watch, floppy disk, magnetic card, or CRT tube.

PS-3

Handling of the PC Drum


Only for Products Not Employing an Imaging Cartridge. 1. During Transportation/Storage: Use the specified carton whenever moving or storing the PC Drum. The storage temperature is in the range between 20C and +40C. In summer, avoid leaving the PC Drum in a car for a long time. 2. Handling: Ensure that the correct PC Drum is used. Whenever the PC Drum has been removed from the copier, store it in its carton or protect it with a Drum Cloth. The PC Drum exhibits greatest light fatigue after being exposed to strong light over an extended period of time. Never, therefore, expose it to direct sunlight. Use care not to contaminate the surface of the PC Drum with oil-base solvent, fingerprints, and other foreign matter. Do not scratch the surface of the PC Drum. Do not apply chemicals to the surface of the PC Drum. Do not attempt to wipe clean the surface of the PC Drum. If, however, the surface is contaminated with fingerprints, clean it using the following procedure. 1. Place the PC Drum into one half of its carton.

2. Gently wipe the residual toner off the surface of the PC Drum with a dry, Dust-Free Cotton Pad. A. Turn the PC Drum so that the area of its surface on which the line of toner left by the Cleaning Blade is present is facing straight up. Wipe the surface in one continuous movement from the rear edge of the PC Drum to the front edge and off the surface of the PC Drum. B. Turn the PC Drum slightly and wipe the newly exposed surface area with a CLEAN face of the Dust-Free Cotton Pad. Repeat this procedure until the entire surface of the PC Drum has been thoroughly cleaned. At this time, always use a CLEAN face of the dry Dust-Free Cotton Pad until no toner is evident on the face of the Pad after wiping.

PS-4

3. Soak a small amount of either ethyl alcohol or isopropyl alcohol into a clean, unused Dust-Free Cotton Pad which has been folded over into quarters. Now, wipe the surface of the PC Drum in one continuous movement from its rear edge to its front edge and off its surface one to two times. Never move the Pad back and forth.
1076D003

4. Using the SAME face of the Pad, repeat the procedure explained in the latter half of step 3 until the entire surface of the PC Drum has been wiped. Always OVERLAP the areas when wiping. Two complete turns of the PC Drum would be appropriate for cleaning.

(3) Function 1) Scanned image receiver (optical receiver) An acquired image by the scanner is converted into an optical signal and then transmitted through the optical cable. The transmitted image is received by the optical receiver of the MFB board. The image data is transmitted with a high-speed transmission clock of 36.75 MHz. 2) Storage coder/decoder (FCUE LSI) The coder function codes image data into stored code data. The decoder function decodes stored code data into image data. 3) Image memory manager (FCUE LSI) This block reads/writes the stored code data through interface units (the scanner, the printer, and the communication units) from/into DRAM FILE by the unit of 1 block. The maximum data throughput for DRAM FILE is 320 Mbps. A time division method is used to refresh read/write of the data through the interface units, and DRAM FILE. 4) Image memory (DRAM FILE) Standard system has 16MB; 8MB on the MFB board and a ROT boards (8MB). The maximum capacity is 64MB by installing another ROT board and a TMEM board. Standard memory 16MB: MFB(8MB) + ROT(8MB) Add-on sort memory TMEM(32MB) and/or ROT (16MB)

Each memory board (ROT (8MB,16MB) and TMEM (32MB)) has its designated slot. Be careful when you insert it. 5) Printer controller (FCUE LSI) It processes the line density conversion for print image data (serial data) from the storage decoder, and stores it in the internal frame memory. The converted data is read synchronized with the PPC printer, added information on the left margin and the white mask, and then output to the printer as serial data. The frame memory can hold up to 20 Kbit of data to be output to the printer. The printer controller exchanges commands/statuses for controlling the printer unit. 6) Modem (V.34 modem) This modem has a digital signal processor (DSP), an analog front end (AFE) for A/D and D/A conversions, a modem F/WROM, and boot memory (SRAM). It follows the electrical communication standards of the recommended V.8, V.34, V.17, V.29, V.27ter, V.21ch2, T.3, and T.4. It also follows the T.30 binary signal procedure. The transmission speeds are 33600, 31200, 28800, 26400, 24000, 21600, 19200, 16800, 14400, 12000, 9600, 7200, 4800, 2400, and 300 bps. This modem has PB tone sending for PB calling. It is located on the memory map of the MFB board. 7) Communication controller (FCUE LSI and IPUS LSI) This controller performs necessary functions (relay control, ringer detection, line connection detection, polarity reverse detection, dialing and pulse sending) for G3 communication. It also detects the frequency of the tonal signal of G3 communication. 8) Image memory backup circuit This backup circuit switches the power source supply unit to the battery while the system is turned OFF or during power source failure so that the stored data in the image file memory (maximum 64MB) is being held.

[3] Function of each block (1) CCD driver This driver is built in the ESP2 LSI and generates a clock for CCD driving. (2) CCD output image processor 1) Analog processor Two image signals from the CCD board are sampled and held by the analog processor. Then it restores the black level, adjusts the gain, mixes the 2 signals (i.e., adjusts the levels of the 2 CCD image signals to convert into 1 image signal), and then outputs the mixed signal to the A/D converter. 2)A/D converter The A/D converter receives the analog signal from Analog processor, converts it into a digitized parallel signal (8 bit for each pixel), and then outputs the digitized signal to the ESP2 LSI. (3) Binary image processor This processor is also built in the ESP2 LSI. It normalizes an 8 bit image signal from the A/D converter (shading correction), and processes it for high image quality (gamma correction and image region separation). It also performs MTF correction (ABC and moving average), and binary process (floating slice, dithering, and error diffusion). The binary image processor also performs zooming and the white mask process. The processed image signal is converted into serial data to output to the optical transmission I/F. (4) Optical transmission I/F This block converts an electrical (serial) signal from the ESP2 LSI into an optical signal in order for transmitting to the MFB board. The optical image signal and a synchronized clock signal will be transmitted. (5) Motor controller This controller is built in the ESP2 LSI. It generates signals for control, magnetic field excitation patterns, and currents of the motors of the Book scanner and the ADF scanner. (6) Sensor I/F circuit This controller is also built in the ESP2 LSI. It receives information such as the document size, the position of the top of the document, and the status of the cover, from sensors of the Book scanner and the ADF scanner. The sensor I/F circuit has a filtering circuit for removing chattering of signals from sensors. (7) ADFR I/F This circuit is built in the ESP2 LSI. ADF I/F sends command to the ADFR unit and it receives the status information from the ADFR unit.

Ringer input Hook-off 1 input Hook-off 2 input

[3] Function of each block LINE is a modular port for connecting a phone line. TEL is another modular port to connect an extra telephone set. CML is a relay that switches from phone to fax. It will be turned ON by pressing the communication switch, detecting a ringer, or a facsimile calling signal. TR1 of the dial pulse transmitter is then turned ON to establish a DC-connection with the transformer (T1) The NCUK board cannot be used in the back to back mode because a signal from LINE is DC-connected through ST1 of the dial pulse transmitter. The actual connection with the line is necessary for testing this board. The dialing pulse transmitter outputs dial pulses controlled by the MFB board. The ringer detector provides an automatic reception function. It isolates a receiver ringer signal with a photo-coupler, and outputs it to the MFB board. The ringer signal is counted by the counter of G/A. The polarity detector uses two photo-couplers to detect the DC polarity of the line. If either of the detected signals is "1", the other signal is "0." The off-hook detector shares a circuit with the polarity detector, and detects off-hook, i.e., direct current.

<<1>> Image Processing Flow Image processing is made up of the following blocks.
1. Photoelectric Conversion (CCD Sensor)

2. HGB Board Transmitted over an optical cable. 3. MFB Board

4. PH (Laser Emission)

1. Photoelectric Conversion (CCD Sensor) Light reflected off the original is received through mirrors and lens by the CCD Sensor which, in turn, outputs the corresponding data to the HGB Board. 2. HGB Board After converting the data received from the CCD to an analog signal, the board converts it to 8-bit image data (A/D conversion). It further makes various corrections and outputs the resultant image data to the MFB Board over an optical cable. 3. MFB Board This board compresses the image data received from the HGB Board, stores it, and uncompresses it. The image memory has a standard capacity of 16MB and can be expanded up to 64MB (optional). 4. PH Emits a laser beam according to the image data provided by the MFB Board to expose the surface of the PC Drum.

3-19

<<2>> Scanner and 2nd/3rd Mirrors Carriage Moving Mechanism <Scanner> During a scan, the Scanner projects an even amount of light from the Exposure Lamp onto the entire surface of the original. The light is reflected from the original to the 1st Mirror of the scanner and then to the 2nd and 3rd Mirrors. The Scanner is driven by the Scanner Motor and front and rear Scanner Drive Cables. Scanner speed is determined by the set zoom ratio in reference to the full size mode. The Scanner is at home position when Scanner Home Position Sensor 1 is blocked. This position serves as the reference for the scan motion. Scanner Home Position Sensor 2 determines the home position of the Scanner when AF-7 is used. <2nd/3rd Mirrors Carriage> The 2nd and 3rd Mirrors are mounted to their holder at right angles to each other. They direct the light reflected off the 1st Mirror through the lens to the CCD. The 2nd/3rd Mirrors Carriage is also moved by the Scanner Drive Cables and pulleys driven by the Scanner Motor. It travels at a speed half that of the Scanner, thereby keeping constant the optical path length between the Original Glass and lens. Scanner Motor (M5)

1. PC Drum The drum is an aluminum cylinder coated with photosensitive material on which an electrostatic latent image is produced. 2. Drum Charging A scorotron charger employing a comb electrode generates a negative DC charged layer on the surface of the PC Drum. 3. Photoelectric Conversion Section The Exposure Lamp directs light onto the original. The light reflected off the original is directed and resized by the mirrors and lens so as to produce a reduced-size image on the CCD Sensor. 4. HGB Board Converts an electric signal into a corresponding 8-bit digital image signal (A/D conversion), makes various corrections, and outputs the results to the MFB Board. 5. MFB Board Compresses the image data received from the HGB Board, stores it, and uncompresses it. 6. Laser Exposure The laser beam emitted from the LD (laser diode) strikes the surface of the PC Drum, creating an electrostatic latent image. 7. Development Negatively charged toner adheres to the latent image on the PC Drum surface, creating a visible image. 8. Paper Feed Feeds sheets of paper from the appropriate paper source. 9. Image Transfer An Image Transfer Roller is used. A positive charge applied to the roller causes the visible image on the surface of the PC Drum to transfer onto the front side of the paper.

3-2-4. PC DRUM
The PC Drum used in this copier is the organic photoconductor (OPC) type. The drum consists of an aluminum base coated with a charge generation layer and a charge transport layer. Handling Precautions Prolonged exposure to light can cause the photoconductor surface of the drum to suffer light fatigue, resulting in a loss of photosensitivity. If the I/C is removed from the copier, it should be wrapped in a soft, clean, opaque cloth or other protective covering to prevent exposure to light.

Gear Grounding of the PC Drum The PC Drum ground point is located inside and at the front end of the I/C as viewed from the front of the copier and in constant contact with the Drum Holding Shaft. When the I/C is installed in the copier, the Drum Holding Shaft contacts the ground point. This provides for assured grounding of the PC Drum through the ground plate in the rear to the frame of the copier. Ground Point PC Drum

<<1>> Sleeve/Magnet Roller This copier employs the MT-HG system with a Sleeve/Magnet Roller having the following magnetic characteristics. Turning of the sleeve surrounding the Magnet Roller ensures that fresh developer from the Developer Mixing Chamber is always being conveyed to the point of development with respect to the PC Drum. N1 : The point of development with the maximum magnetic flux density which ensures that the carrier is firmly held onto the Sleeve Roller when toner is attracted to the latent image. : The magnetic flux density between these two poles is made low to ensure that the developer remaining on the surface of the Sleeve Roller is smoothly recycled. They also prevent developer from scattering. : The developer brush is formed by this pole and its height is moderated before the brush is regulated by the Doctor Blade. : This pole ensures that the developer is conveyed to the point of development over the wide interval between N3 and N1. : If developer is compacted and clogs at the Doctor Blade and, as a result, part of the surface of the Sleeve/Magnet Roller is not covered with developer, the nearby developer around this pole with a weak magnetic force goes to those uncovered areas. This helps prevent white lines from occurring on the copy. N1 PC Drum

As the PC Drum deteriorates and its photoconductive layer begins to wear, it becomes more sensitive to the increase in the amount of toner. As a countermeasure against this problem, the developing bias voltage is automatically switched according to the PC Drum temperature, thereby stabilizing the image quality level.

<<3>>ATDC Sensor The ATDC Sensor automatic adjustment is made when a new I/C is installed in the copier. Toner replenishing control is thereafter controlled as detailed in the following. [1] ATDC Sensor Automatic Adjustment The ATDC Sensor is automatically adjusted when a new I/C is loaded in the copier. During this sequence, the copier reads the sensor output value and sets it as the reference. This reference value is stored in memory and used until the I/C reaches its service life. [2] Toner Replenishing Control While the I/C Motor is turning, the ATDC Sensor samples T/C and, according to the readings, the copier provides the following controls. T/C Ratio (%) More than 19 14 to 19 13 to 14 12 to 13 10 to 12 7 to 10 Less than 7 Sampling Data (V) Less than 1.41 2.32 to 1.41 2.50 to 2.32 2.68 to 2.50 3.10 to 2.68 3.92 to 3.10 More than 3.92 Control Details Defective ATDC Sensor Toner replenished for 0 msec.

V Toner replenishment represents the operation of the Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor. [3] Toner Empty Control (T/C Recovery Mode) When the control is passed onto the T/C recovery mode, the Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor is energized to replenish the supply of toner into the Developing Unit and, if T/C is recovered to a level of 14% or higher (2.32V or less) within 150 sec., it resets the toner-empty condition.

<<5>> Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Mechanism A toner-empty condition in the Sub Hopper is detected by the Magnet Lever that moves up and down as the Sub Hopper Toner Agitating Lever turns and actuates and deactuates the Sub Hopper Toner Empty Switch. While the amount of toner in the Sub Hopper is more than the predetermined amount, the Magnet Lever rests on the toner, keeping the Sub Hopper Toner Empty Switch deactuated even when the Sub Hopper Toner Agitating Lever turns. As toner is consumed, the Magnet Lever lowers to eventually actuate the Sub Hopper Toner Empty Switch, at which timing the copier detects a toner-empty condition in the Sub Hopper.

<<6>> Main Hopper Toner Replenishing Mechanism When a toner-empty condition in the Sub Hopper is detected, the Main Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor is energized to turn the Toner Bottle, thereby supplying toner from the Main Hopper to the Sub Hopper. The Toner Bottle Home Position Sensor mounted on the coupling ensures that the Toner Supply Port in the Toner Bottle is positioned at the top whenever the bottle is stopped. The Toner Bottle Cover Sensor detects whether the Toner Bottle Cover is open. If the cover is open, the copier does not authorize the initiation of a new copy cycle. If the cover is opened during a copy cycle, the copier interrupts the cycle. Toner Bottle

Image Transfer This copier employs an Image Transfer Roller to transfer the image to the paper. The High Voltage Unit applies an image transfer current to this roller. To ensure that image transfer efficiency is stabilized, the image transfer current is automatically varied according to the paper size, paper type, and the B/W ratio of the original. To prevent toner from sticking to the Image Transfer Roller, an image transfer voltage of -975V is applied to the roller for cleaning. Paper Separation To neutralize any charge left on the paper, to which the image has been transferred, the High Voltage Unit applies a voltage of -1200V via a ground plate to the Charge Neutralizing Plate.

<<3>> Paper Selection Mode (facsimile) This system has the following modes for selecting paper. The soft switch (MODE 008) toggles these modes. They are valid only for printing received documents. [1] Standard mode This mode selects paper to avoid document splitting as much as possible. Example Available sizes of paper : Letter Lengthwise and 11 X 17 Lengthwise Size of received document : 11 X 17 Lengthwise Printing mode : Automatic reduction (Upper reduction limit of 60%) In this case, the system will use the 11 X 17 paper without reduction. If the 11 X 17 paper has run out, the Letter Lengthwise paper will be used with reduction. [2] Width preference mode This mode selects paper whose width is the same as or smaller than a received document. (Example) Available sizes of print paper : Letter Lengthwise and 11 X 17 Lengthwise Size of received document : Letter Lengthwise Printing mode : Automatic reduction (Upper reduction limit of 60%) In this case, the system will use the Letter paper with reduction. If the Letter paper has run out, the printing job will be halted and wait for new paper. [3] Fixed width mode This mode selects paper whose width is the same as a received document. (Example) Available sizes of paper : Letter Lengthwise and 11 X 17 Lengthwise Size of received document : 11 X 17 Lengthwise Printing mode : Automatic reduction (Upper reduction limit of 60%) In this case, the system will use the Letter paper with reduction. If the Letter paper has run out, the printing job will be halted and wait for new paper.

Note: The standard and the preference modes have 4 different submodes. Each of them has priorities for selection. (Users can select only submode1.)
Submode 1 : Submode 2 : Submode 3 : Sub mode 4 : Selecting a paper whose width is the same as a received document without reduction. Selecting a paper whose width is the same as a received document with minimum margins (minimum non printing area). Selecting a paper to print out without reduction.

6-1-2. PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING THE LASER EQUIPMENT


The laser used in this copier is a semiconductor laser having the following specifications. Max. power: Output wavelength: 5mW 770~810nm

When laser protective goggles are to be used, select ones with a lens conforming to the above specifications. When a disassembly job needs to be performed in the laser beam path, such as when working around the printerhead and PC Drum, be sure first to turn the copier OFF. If the job requires that the copier be left ON, take off your watch and ring and wear laser protective goggles. A highly reflective tool can be dangerous if it is brought into the laser beam path. Use utmost care when handling tools on the users premises. The printerhead is not maintainable in the field. It is to be replaced as an assembly including the control board. Never, therefore, attempt to remove the laser diode or adjust trimmers on the control board.

6-1

6-1-3. INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING THE PWBS WITH MOS ICS


The following precautions must be observed when handling P.W. Boards with MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) ICs. During Transportation/Storage: During transportation or when in storage, new P .W. Boards must not be indiscriminately removed from their protective conductive bags. Do not store or place P.W. Boards in a location exposed to direct sunlight. When it becomes absolutely necessary to remove a Board from its conductive bag or case, always place it on its conductive mat in an area as free as possible from static electricity. Do not touch the pins of the ICs with your bare hands. During Replacement: Before unplugging connectors from the P.W. Boards, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the outlet. When removing a Board from its conductive bag or conductive case, do not touch the pins of the ICs or the printed pattern. Place it in position by holding only the edges of the Board. Before plugging connectors into the Board, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the power outlet. During Inspection: Avoid checking the IC directly with a multimeter; use connectors on the Board. Never create a closed circuit across IC pins with a metal tool. When it is absolutely necessary to touch the ICs and other electrical components on the PW Board, be sure to ground your body.

6-1-4. HANDLING OF THE IMAGING CARTRIDGE


During Transportation/Storage: Use the specified carton whenever moving or storing the Imaging Cartridge. The storage temperature is in the range between 20C and +40C. In summer, avoid leaving the Imaging Cartridge in a car for a long time. Handling: Ensure that the correct Imaging Cartridge is used. Store the Imaging Cartridge in a site that is not exposed to direct sunlight. Precautionary Information on the PC Drum Inside the Imaging Cartridge: The PC Drum exhibits greatest light fatigue after being exposed to strong light over an extended period of time. Never, therefore, expose it to direct sunlight. Use care not to contaminate the surface of the PC Drum with oil-base solvent, fingerprints, and other foreign matter. Do not scratch the surface of the PC Drum. Do not apply chemicals to the surface of the PC Drum. Do not attempt to wipe clean the surface of the PC Drum.

TROUBLESHOOTING

9-1. DIAGNOSIS BY ALARM CODE


This section shows diagnoses of system troubles by alarm codes and their remedies. The default setting for diagnostic codes is not to be displayed. If you experience errors frequently, setup the soft switch (MODE 020) to display diagnostic codes. Then follow tables 9-1-1 and 9-1-2 for troubleshooting. Table 9-1-1 shows communication error codes. Each of them has 6-digits on the panel and a report. Codes 00 to B4 indicate the upper 2 digits. Adding internal 4 digits to them to display 6 digits on the panel and a report. Communication reports (TX and RX) print out diagnostic codes for up to 50 activities. Any codes older than those activities cannot be printed. Table 9-1-2 indicates printer alarm codes, which have 2 digits on the panel screen. Before you proceed with a remedy according to the tables, make sure that the power source cable and the connectors are connected properly. < Setting up diagnostic code display > MODE 020 Bit 3 0 1 Meaning Do not display codes. Displays codes.

If you experience poor image quality, you need to determine whether it comes from failure in the document scanning unit or in the printer unit. Run the test print routine to identify the cause of the problem. If the problem is due to the printer unit, identify the error pattern of the test sample for trouble shooting according to the table below. Notice that the table does not list bad connections among connector and cables. You need to check the connection of the connectors and the cables before replacing parts.
Error Pattern Completely white (Blank page) Cause Empty toner Lack of exposure Lack of development 1 1 2 1 2 3 4 Error in paper size detection 1 2 Remedy Check the toner. Replace the toner bottle if no toner. Replace the printer head. Replace the mechanism control board. Check the high voltage port (contact) for the imaging unit. Replace the imaging unit. Replace the high voltage unit. Replace the mechanism control board. Check the paper guide plate of the feeder drawer.
