Theory of Operation

Drive

The drive for both the SFP and MFP consists of three assemblies:

Main Drive Assembly — Drives the Imaging Unit, Transfer Belt, Registration

Rollers, and Feeder.

Sub Drive Assembly — Supplies drive to the Fuser and Cyan, Magenta, and

Yellow developers in the Imaging Unit.

Feed Drive Assembly — Transmits the driving force from the Main and Sub

Drive Assemblies to relevant parts. The drive path is changed by the Color

Mode Switching Solenoid located on the Feed Drive Assy. To change modes,

the solenoid activates, allowing Gear C to engage and rotate Cam C 180

degrees. In Black and White Mode, Cam C displaces Flange D3 to disengage

the sections of Gear D3. This prevents rotation of the CMY developers,

allowing only the Black Developer to rotate. The Color Mode Switching Sensor

detects the presence or absence of the flag on Cam C to report whether the

drive path is set for color (flag present) or black and white (flag absent).
