1155SBM0500A IMAGE STABILIZING SYSTEM The following table outlines the controls measures taken to maintain stable imaging. Item Purpose Method Initial Setup First correct for AIDC sensor disparity Set initial values for grid voltage (Vg) and contamination. Then use ∆V con- and developer bias (Vb).
1155SBM0501A 5-1. AlDC Sensor To provide image stabilization control, this copier has AlDC Sensor fitted to the Cleaning Unit of the Imaging Unit. The sensor is used to detect the toner density and background level on the PC Drum. Operation 1: The LED projects approx.
1155SBM0502A 5-2. Control Methods of the Image Stabilizing System AIDC Sensor Control Grid Voltage Control (Vg) Controls are implemented as follows. -1. Adjustment of AIDC Sensor Disparity (coarse adjustment) This adjustment is required when normal correction of AIDC contamination and disparity (installation disparity, circuitry error, drum deterioration, etc.) fails to bring operation to within the appropriate range.
1155SBM0600A PC DRUM The copier uses an OPC (organic photocondutor) drum. * The drum consists of an aluminum base coated with a carrier generation layer and a charge holding layer. The drum provides good spectral sensitivity in the near infrared range. (Usage Precautions) Protracted exposure to extraneous light can cause the drum surface to suffer light fatigue, resulting in a loss of optical sensitivity.
1155SBM0602A 6-2. Grounding of the PC Drum The PC Drum ground point is inside the rear end. When the PC Unit is slid into 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.
1155SBM0700A DRUM CHARGING A scorotron charger system generates a negative DC corona discharge onto the drum surface. A grid mesh provides uniform charging. The grid voltage (VG) applied to the grid mesh is controlled by the constant voltage circuitry within the Drum Charge High Voltage Unit (HV1). In order to restrict ozone production, the copier utilizes two comb electrode chargers to generate the charge.
1155SBM0701A 7-1. PC Drum Charge Corona Comb Electrode Cleaning Mechanism The two PC Drum Charge Corona Comb Electrodes are provided with a cleaning mechanism that removes from the electrodes any toner and dust particles which would otherwise cause uneven charging, white streaks on copies, and charge leak. <Mechanism>...

1. Photoelectric Conversion (CCD Sensor): PWB-IA • Light from the Exposure Lamp (FL1) reflects off the original, passes through mirrors and one lens, and reaches the CCD sensor. The CCD sensor converts the optical data into analog electrical signals. 2. Analog Processing: PWB-IA •...
1155SBM0804A 8-4. Image Density Control 1) Auto Density (AE) Control • Auto Density Control (AE Control) varies the background removal threshold in accordance with the original type (newspaper, photograph, etc.). This helps ensure that only the fogging component in the low-density areas is removed, while retaining the image density of the characters and other high-density areas of the image.
Page 46
<Realtime Scanning> • Realtime scanning is carried out by scanning the image data while copying is in progress. (This is the same type of scanning used with analog PPCs). • The data samples are plotted into a reflectivity histogram. The histogram is used to determine the type of the original, and the background removal threshold is calculated accordingly.
Page 47
• The control flow for auto density (AE) control is shown below. Start Key ON <Realtime Scanning> The scanner starts normal scanning of the document. (The copy cycle starts.) The image data read by the CCD sensor is transmitted (in parallel) from the Shading Correction block to the Histogram block, where the data val- ues are sampled, and the samples are counted in order to generated the reflectivity histogram.
Page 48
¿ The gradation curve of the density-corrected data is adjusted in accordance with the Image Quality mode so as to enhance the reproduction of the high- density areas. The above processing helps retain density detail within characters and other high-density areas, while removing the fogging component from the low-den- sity areas.
Page 49
2) Manual Density Control • If the copier is set to manual density mode, the user can set copy density to any of nine settings (or “steps”) at the control panel (touch panel). • Based on the user’s setting, the CPU of the PWB-IB transmits a predetermined background removal threshold value to the IR Density Correction block, which then implements density correction accordingly.
Page 50
¿ The threshold value is transmitted from the PWB-IB to the IR Density Correc- tion block. This block then corrects the image density of incoming data in accordance with the relation shown below. Output X=aχ-b X: Image density value after density correction a: 1 χ: Image density value before density correction Input...

1155SBM1100A DEVELOPING UNIT This copier employs the New Micro-Toning developing system equipped with three Sleeve/Magnet Rollers. The toner fed up to the Toner Replenishing Sleeve/Magnet Roller is supplied to the turning 1st and 2nd Sleeve/Magnet Rollers. From there, it is supplied to the electro- static latent image on the surface of the PC Drum to form a visible, developed toner image of the original.
1155SBM1101A 11-1. Developing Unit Drive Mechanism Drive for the Developing Unit comes from Developing Unit Drive Motor. Coupling Gear 2 is spring-loaded. If the protruding part of Coupling Gear 1 makes contact with that of Coupling Gear 2 when the PC Unit is slid into the copier, spring- loaded Coupling Gear 2 is pushed back toward the rear of the copier allowing the PC Unit to be slid into position.
1155SBM1102A 11-2. Magnetic Pole Positioning Each Magnet Roller of the Toner Replenishing, 1st, and 2nd Sleeve/Magnet Rollers is made up of five magnets asymmetrically packed. The Bias Plate at the front of the Developing Unit ensures that the angle of principal magnetic pole N1 of the 1st Sleeve/Magnet Roller and that of principal magnetic pole S1 of the 2nd Sleeve/Magnet Roller will not be changed with respect to the center of the PC Drum.
Page 75
<Toner Replenishing Sleeve/Magnet Roller> N3, S2 : The developer fed by the Bucket Roller is attracted onto the surface of the Sleeve Roller. : The developer brush is formed by this pole. The height of the brush is mod- erate before the brush is regulated by the Doctor Blade. : This pole functions to hold the developer brush firmly onto the surface of the Sleeve Roller as it is fed onto the point of supply to the 1st Sleeve/Magnet Roller.
1155SBM1103A 11-3. Developing Bias A negative voltage (Vb = Developing Bias voltage) is applied to the Sleeve Roller to prevent a foggy background on the copy. The amount of toner attracted onto the sur- face of the PC Drum depends on how much lower the PC Drum surface potential (Vi) is than Vb (i.e., the potential difference).
1155SBM1104A 11-4. ATDC Sensor During operation, the ATDC sensor detects the T/C ratio (toner-to-carrier ratio) in the developer mixing chamber. If the detected ratio is below the target level of 4%, the copier will add toner. Note that the reference T/C ratio of 4% (at setup) produces an ATDC sensor output of 2.5V.
Page 78
<Toner Replenishing Control by ATDC Sensor> In general, the ATDC sensor detects the T/C ratio once every copy. The detected value is compared against the target value (generally 4%, but may vary in accordance with image stabilizing control). If the result indicates that resupply is required, the Sub-hopper Toner Replenishing Motor is activated so as to supply the appropriate amount.
1155SBM1105A 11-5. Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Mechanism Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor is energized for the toner replenishing time which is calculated based on the ATDC Sensor output voltage (T/C ratio) and the size of the paper being fed through the copier. Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Roller...
1155SBM1106A 11-6. Sub-hopper Toner Empty Detection Mechanism Detection is effected by a magnet that rotates together with the sub-hopper's toner agitation lever. When toner falls to a low level, the magnet will pass close to switch Sub-hopper Toner Empty Switch on each rotation, causing the switch to go repeat- edly ON and OFF.
1155SBM1107A 11-7. Main Hopper Toner Replenishing Mechanism When toner-empty ON/OFF pulses are detected in the Sub Hopper, Main Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor is energized to turn the Toner Bottle, thereby supplying toner from the Main Hopper to Sub Hopper. The Home Position Detecting Plate fitted to the coupling and Toner Bottle Home Position Sensor ensure that the Toner Supply Port in the Toner Bottle is positioned at the top whenever the Toner Bottle is stopped.
1155SBM1108A 11-8. Coupling Locking Mechanism The coupling is locked in position to prevent it from moving when the Toner Bottle is removed or installed. When the Toner Bottle Holder is swung out to the front, the ten- sion of the spring causes the Coupling Lock Lever to hook the coupling. When the holder is swung into position, the bottom of the Coupling Lock Lever is pushed by the protrusion of the holder, disengaging the Coupling Lock Lever from the coupling.
1155SBM1110A 11-10. Toner Suction Fan Motor This copier is provided with a Suction Duct under the 2nd Sleeve/Magnet Roller. Toner particles from the Developing Unit are drawn in through the Suction Duct so that they will not fall over the Pre-Image Transfer Guide Plate and Image Transfer/ Paper Separator Coronas Unit.

<Paper Separating Mechanism> The paper separating mechanism employs a torque limiter to ensure that only the top sheet of paper is fed in by separating the second sheet of paper from the top one. This is accomplished by the difference in friction coefficient between the Feed and Separator Rolls.
Page 108
<Paper Pressure Release Mechanism> (Except 3rd Drawer) If the drawer is pulled out when a sheet of paper is pinched between the Feed and Separator Rolls, that sheet of paper is left inside the copier and it becomes difficult to remove it. This copier is therefore provided with a mechanism that releases the Separator Roll from the Feed Roll when the drawer is slid out of the copier.
