  • Page 15 • The operation of the horizontal motor is controlled by a long horizontal encoder strip (5) stretched across the width of the main unit. • A horizontal encoder sensor (6) mounted on the back of the carriage unit reads the codes on the strip to control operation of the motor and carriage unit as the carriage unit moves left and right.
  • Page 16 Maintenance unit • The maintenance unit on the right side of the machine cleans the print heads. • There are two motors in the maintenance unit: the maintenance motor and the maintenance lift motor. • The maintenance motor (1) raises the suction cap (2) that cleans the print heads and caps the K1 print head, raises the wiper blade (3), moves the wiper (4), and drives the suction pump (5).
  • Page 17 Ink supply • Ink is supplied from four ink cartridges (1) mounted on the right side of the machine. • Ink pumps (2) pump ink through ink supply tubes (3) to the ink sub tanks (4) mounted above each print head. •...
  • Page 18 Waste ink collection • A waste ink collector tank (1), mounted on the right side of the machine below the maintenance unit (2), collects the ink removed from the print heads by the maintenance unit during print head cleaning. The ink collector tank has an ID chip that keeps a count that will signal when the tank is full and needs to be replaced.
  • Page 19 Configuration • The scanner unit and main unit are mounted on separate racks. • The units can be easily separated for servicing, or for placing the scanner on a low table or desk so it can be operated from a sitting position. Image registration The DRESS (Direct Realization Edge Scanning Sensor) sensor, mounted on the left side of the carriage unit, functions as a paper registration sensor and image registration sensor.
  • Page 20 Front Cover Switches • The front cover (1) can be raised to remove paper jams and to load paper for bypass feeding. • The left front cover switch (2) and right front cover switch (3) are push-switches that detect when the front cover is raised and lowered.
  • Page 21 Cutter A one-direction cutter cuts roll paper from right to left and returns to the right side of the machine after cutting. It moves below the paper without interfering with paper feed. Paper feed control The DSP control (Digital Signal Processing) system controls paper feed with encoder wheels. It assures accurate roll paper feed and constantly monitors the amount of paper remaining on the rolls.
  • Page 22 Improved Productivity During black-and-white printing [A] only the K1 print head (1) and K2 print head (2) are used. These black print heads are offset so they can cover a wider band with black ink. This increases printing speed because a wider band can be covered with one pass in a monochrome print. During color printing [B] the K2 (3), C (4), and YM (5) print heads are used.
  • Page 23 arrangement of the nozzle ports is staggered so the positions of the nozzle ports complement one another when ink is put down on the paper.
