IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICES
PREVENTION OF PHYSICAL INJURY
1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the copier and peripherals,
make sure that the copier power cord is unplugged.
2. The wall outlet should be near the copier and easily accessible.
3. Note that some components of the copier and the peripherals are
supplied with electrical voltage even if the main switch is turned off.
4. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior covers
off or open while the main switch is turned on, keep hands away from
electrified or mechanically driven components.
5. The inside and the metal parts of the fusing unit become extremely hot
while the copier is operating. Be careful to avoid touching those
components with your bare hands.
HEALTH & SAFETY CONDITIONS
1. Never operate the copier without the ozone filters installed.
2. Always replace the ozone filters with the specified ones at the specified
intervals.
3. Toner and developer are non-toxic, but if you get either of them in your
eyes by accident, it may cause temporary eye discomfort. Try to remove
with eye drops or flush with water as first aid. If unsuccessful, get medical
attention.

The reflector plate [D] aides the exposure lamp intensity for high original moving speed. During exposure, the original moves across the exposure glass at the same speed as the drum’s peripheral velocity.

The main motor then turns on. Two seconds later the original feed clutch turns on to start turning the front original feed rollers [C], rear original feed rollers [D], and original registration rollers [E].
  • Page 26 31 December 1992 EXPOSURE The main CPU determines the original length for synchro cutting by counting the generated pulses after the 1st original transport sensor detects the leading edge of the original until the original set sensor detects the trailing edge of the original.

  • Page 41 DEVELOPMENT 31 December 1992 (If service program mode #21 is set to "1", the toner density will be checked every 610 mm regardless of Vsp/Vsg.) The toner supply amount (%) can be adjusted using service program mode #17. Using service program #34, Vsp, Vsg, and Vsp/Vsg can be displayed in the copy counter.
  • Page 42 31 December 1992 DEVELOPMENT 4.4.2 Toner Density Sensor Toner Density Sensor (S2) Main Board (PCB1) CN101-1 [24V] Va Control Toner Density Sensor [7.0V] (Control) Circuit Coils The toner density sensor works in conjunction with the ID sensor to control the amount of toner in the developer mixture. It has three basic functions. First, it controls the toner supply in case the toner density is greater than the upper limit and the toner density is less than the lower limit.
  • Page 43 DEVELOPMENT 31 December 1992 The active sensing element is a very small transformer with three coils. When iron ferrite (carrier) is near the sensing element, the inductance of the coils changes, causing the current through the transformer to change. As the amount of toner in the developer increases, the effect of the carrier particles decreases and the voltage applied to CN101-2 decreases.
  • Page 44: Development Bias

    31 December 1992 DEVELOPMENT 4.5 DEVELOPMENT BIAS 4.5.1 Basic Concept When the drum is exposed, most of the negative charge is eliminated from the areas where light strikes the drum. This leaves a negative charge pattern corresponding to the dark areas of the original. After exposure however, a small residual charge of about –100 volts (for white paper) remains in the exposed areas.

  • Page 46 31 December 1992 DEVELOPMENT 4.6 IMAGE DENSITY SENSOR BIAS The ID sensor bias is similar to the development bias; however, it is applied only when developing the ID sensor pattern. Basically, the ID sensor bias is fixed. The normal ID bias level is –200 volts, but it can be changed using service program #18.
  • Page 47: Toner Supply

    DEVELOPMENT 31 December 1992 4.7 TONER SUPPLY To allow a compact design, the toner supply mechanism is built into the toner cartridge. An agitator [A] in the toner cartridge turns when the toner supply solenoid is on (toner supply spring clutch engaged). As the agitator rotates, mylar strips [B] on the ends of the agitator force toner through small holes (0.5 mm) in a plastic strip [C] along one side of the toner cartridge.

This illumination reduces the negative potential on the drum surface.

    IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION 31 December 1992 5.4 PICK-OFF MECHANISM The pick-off pawl solenoid [A] is energized 12 pulses after the registration clutch turns on to feed the copy paper to the drum. The pick-off lever [B] then rotates clockwise and pushes up the pawl holder [C]. This releases the two pick-off pawls [D], allowing them to rotate against the drum.

The toner that is wiped off by the cleaning blade drops onto the toner collection coil [B], which then moves it to the used toner tank.
  • Page 52 31 December 1992 CLEANING 6.2 COLLECTION OF USED TONER The toner collection coil moves used toner from the cleaning unit through the used toner pipe [A] to the used toner tank [B]. The used toner tank can hold about 800 grams of toner. On average, about 10,000 A2 sized copies can be made before the used toner tank needs to be emptied.

The quenching lamp turns on and off at the same time as the main motor. The quenching lamp consists of two PCBs containing 49 LEDs (light emitting diodes) each.
  • Page 55: Paper Feed And Registration

    PAPER FEED AND REGISTRATION 31 December 1992 PAPER FEED AND REGISTRATION 8.1 OVERVIEW In this copier, paper is fed either manually [A], or by the sheet feeder [B] (option), or roll feeder [C] (option). For manual feed, the copy paper is inserted until it contacts the manual feed rollers [D].
  • Page 56: Drive Mechanism

    31 December 1992 PAPER FEED AND REGISTRATION 8.2 DRIVE MECHANISM Drive power from the main motor is provided to the paper feed and registration drive mechanism from feed/fusing drive belt 2 [A] through the manual feed/registration sprocket [B]. When the manual feed solenoid [C] is energized, the paper feed drive chain [D] drives the manual feed roller [E].
  • Page 57: Paper Transport

    PAPER TRANSPORT 31 December 1992 PAPER TRANSPORT After separation from the drum, the copy paper rides on the transport belts [A] and transport rollers [B] to the fusing unit. Airflow directly from the vacuum fan [C] holds the paper firmly against the belts so that there is enough friction between the paper and the belts for smooth transportation of the paper.
  • Page 58: Fusing And Paper Exit

    31 December 1992 FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 10. FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 10.1 OVERVIEW Two rollers fuse the image to the copy paper by applying heat and pressure. The hot roller [A] is made of carbon-teflon and the pressure roller [B] is made of silicone rubber.
  • Page 59 FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 31 December 1992 The hot roller strippers [F] separate the copy from the hot roller and direct it to the fusing exit rollers [G]. After the fusing exit rollers, the exit gate [H] directs the copy to either the upper rollers [I] or lower exit [J]. When the exit gate solenoid is on, the exit gate directs the copy paper down through the lower copy exit path.
  • Page 60 31 December 1992 FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 10.2 DRIVE MECHANISM 10.2.1 Fusing Drive The hot roller is turned by the fusing drive chain as shown. The pressure roller is friction driven by the hot roller. The fusing rollers turn constantly when the main motor [A] is on, driven via the gears [B], through feed/fusing drive belts 1 [C] and 2 [D], the sprockets [E] and the fusing drive chain [F], to the hot roller sprocket [G].
  • Page 61 FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 31 December 1992 10.2.2 Exit Roller Drive The upper [A] and lower [B] exit rollers are driven by the main motor [C] via a set of gears [D]. Finally, the exit roller drive chain [E] drives the exit rollers through a sprocket as shown above.

The input from TH1 goes to pin 5 of IC107 as well as to the CPU. As the temperature of TH1 increases, its resistance decreases and therefore the voltage at pin 5 of IC107 increases.
