2BH/J 2-1-1 Paper feed section The paper feed section consists of the primary feed and secondary feed subsections. Primary feed conveys paper from the upper drawer, lower drawer or bypass tray to the left and right registration rollers, at which point secondary feed takes place and the paper travels to the transfer section in sync with the printing timing.
Page 247
2BH/J-3 The bypass table can be hold up to 200 sheets of paper at one time. Paper is fed from the bypass table by the rotation of the bypass forwarding pulley and bypass paper feed pulley. Also during paper feed, the bypass separation pulley prevents multiple sheets from being fed at one time by the torque limiter.

2BH/J (1) Original scanning The original image is illuminated by the exposure lamp (EL) and scanned by the CCD PCB (CCDPCB) in the image scanning unit via the three mirrors, the reflected light being converted to an electrical signal. The scanner and mirror frames travel to scan on the optical rails on the front and rear of the machine to scan from side to side.
Page 254
2BH/J-3 (2) Image printing The image data scanned by the CCD PCB (CCDPCB) is processed on the main PCB (MPCB) and transmitted as image printing data to the laser scanner unit (LSU). By repeatedly turning the laser on and off, the laser scanner unit forms a latent image on the drum surface.

2BH/J-3 2-1-4 Developing section The developing section consists of the developing unit and the toner container. The developing unit consists of the developing roller where a magnetic brush is formed, the doctor blade and the developing spirals that agitate the toner. When the toner sensor (TNS) detects a low toner level in the developing unit, the toner replenishment signal is output to the main PCB (MPCB).

2BH/J-3 (1) Formation of magnetic brush The developing roller consists of a magnet roller with four poles and a sleeve roller. Rotation of the sleeve roller around the magnet roller entrains toner, which in turn forms a magnetic brush at pole N1 on the magnet roller. The height of the magnetic brush is regulated by the doctor blade;...

2BH/J (2) Computing the absolute humidity The humidity sensor (HUMSENS) converts the relative humidity detected by the humidity sensing element into a voltage and sends it to the main PCB (MPCB). The main PCB (MPCB) computes the absolute humidity based on this HUMSENS signal and the temperature (ETTH signal) detected by the external temperature thermistor (ETTH).
Page 260
2BH/J-3 (3) Single component developing system This machine uses the single component developing system, and reversal processing is performed with a + charged drum (a-Si) and a + charged magnetic toner. With the single component developing system, toner is electrically charged by friction with the developing sleeve and + charged when it passes through the magnetic doctor blade.

2BH/J-3 2-1-5 Transfer and separation sections The transfer and separation section consists mainly of the transfer roller, separation electrode and drum separation claws. A high voltage generated by the high-voltage transformer PCB (HVTPCB) is applied to the transfer roller for transfer charging (100 µA).

2BH/J 2-1-6 Cleaning and charge erasing sections The cleaning section consists of the cleaning blade that removes residual toner from the drum surface after the transfer process, and the cleaning spiral that carries the residual toner back to the waste toner tank. The cleaning lamp (CL) consists of LEDs and removes residual charge on the drum before main charging.
Page 265
2BH/J 2-1-7 Fixing section The fixing section consists of the parts shown in Figure 2-1-22. When paper reaches the fixing section after the transfer process, it passes between the press roller and heat roller, which is heated by fixing heaters M or S (FH-M or FH-S). Pressure is applied by the fixing unit pressure springs so that the toner on the paper is melted, fused and fixed onto the paper.

2-1-1 Mechanical construction The large paper deck consists mainly of the left and right cassettes and separation section. The left cassette paper feed section sends paper from the lift to the upper and lower deck separation rollers. When the left cassette becomes empty, the right cassette paper feed section conveys paper onto the lift of the left cassette.
Page 469
• Left cassette paper feed As the paper conveying clutch (CCL) turns on, the drive is transmitted to the upper and lower deck separation rollers, starting paper feed from the left cassette. The upper and lower deck separation rollers ensure that the paper is fed one sheet at a time and that it is fed into the copier correctly.

• Right cassette paper feed As the last sheet in the left cassette is fed, paper feed clutch 2 (PFCL2) and paper feed clutch 1 (PFCL1) turn on for paper feed from the right cassette. Deck paper feed rollers 1 and 2 start to rotate to convey paper from the right cassette onto the left cassette lift.

• Raising and lowering the lifts The following is a description of the right cassette lift operating mechanism. The left cassette lift operates in the same manner. Paper deck motor 2 (PDM2) drives the right lift belt assembly that winches the belt up and hence raises the lift until it is stopped by deck level switch 2 (DLSW2).
Page 474
• Detecting the paper level The lift rises as paper in the deck is used. When the remaining number of sheets in either right or left cassette reduces to around 100 to 250 sheets, the projection on the lift belt assembly pushes against the sensor lever which turns the relevant paper level detection sensor 1 or 2 (PLDSENS1/2) on.
