IMAGE PROCESSING Filtering Overview There are some software filters for enhancing the desired image qualities of the selected original mode. These filters are the MTF filter, the smoothing filter, and independent dot erase. The MTF filter emphasizes sharpness and is used in Text and Text/Photo modes. The smoothing filter is used in Photo mode, except for Glossy Photo mode.
IMAGE PROCESSING Smoothing Filter Adjustment - Photo Mode When the user selects “Service Mode” for Photo original type, the smoothing filter can be changed with SP4-927. A stronger smoothing filter makes the image more blurred (1: Weak ~ 8: Strong). Smoothing Filter Adjustment - Text and Text/Photo Modes To reduce the possibility of moiré, a small-matrix smoothing filter is used after scanner gamma (γ) correction in the Text and Text/Photo mode.

PHOTOCONDUCTOR UNIT (PCU) 2.4 PHOTOCONDUCTOR UNIT (PCU) 2.4.1 OVERVIEW A267D201.WMF The PCU consists of the components shown in the above illustration. An organic photoconductor (OPC) drum (diameter: 30 mm) is used in this machine. 1. Cleaning Blade 6. Development Roller 2.
PHOTOCONDUCTOR UNIT (PCU) 2.4.2 DRIVE A267D202.WMF The main motor [A] drives the drum [B] through a series of gears, a timing belt [C], and the drum drive shaft [D]. The main motor assembly includes a drive controller, which outputs a motor lock signal when the rotation speed is out of the specified range.
PHOTOCONDUCTOR UNIT (PCU) 2.4.3 NEW PCU DETECTION A267D206.WMF The new PCU detect switch [A] detects when a new PCU is installed. Each PCU has an actuator [B]. When a new PCU is installed in the machine, the actuator [B] pushes the new PCU detect switch. The actuator is a sector gear, and this gear engages with the drum gear [C].
DRUM CHARGE 2.5 DRUM CHARGE 2.5.1 OVERVIEW A267D203.WMF This copier uses a drum charge roller to charge the drum. The drum charge roller [A] always contacts the surface of the drum [B] to give it a negative charge of –900V. The high voltage supply board gives a negative dc voltage to the drum charge roller through the spring [C] and terminal plate [D].

DRUM CHARGE If the humidity drops, the drum potential goes up (to a higher –ve voltage) even if the charge roller voltage supply stays the same (efficiency of voltage transfer is higher with lower humidity). As a result, less toner is transferred to ID sensor pattern [B].
DRUM CHARGE 2.5.3 DRUM CHARGE ROLLER CLEANING A267D204.WMF Because the drum charge roller [A] always contacts the drum, it gets dirty easily. So, the cleaning pad [B] also contacts the drum charge roller all the time to clean the surface of the drum charge roller. The pin [C] at the rear of the cleaning pad holder touches the cam gear [D], and this gear moves the cleaning pad from side to side.
DEVELOPMENT 2.6 DEVELOPMENT 2.6.1 OVERVIEW A267D301.WMF The development unit consists of the following parts. 1. Development roller 4. Mixing auger 1 2. Mixing auger 2 5. Doctor blade 3. TD sensor This machine uses a single-roller development system. Two mixing augers mix the developer.
DEVELOPMENT 2.6.2 DRIVE The main motor [A] drives the development roller [B] and mixing augers [C] through a train of gears and the development drive shaft [D]. When the PCU is pushed in, the development drive shaft engages the development roller gear. The development drive gears (except for the gears in the development unit) are helical gears.
DEVELOPMENT 2.6.3 DEVELOPER MIXING A267D302.WMF This copier uses 2 mixing augers, [A] and [B], to keep the developer evenly mixed. Mixing auger 2 [A] transports excess developer, scraped off the development roller [C] by the doctor blade [D], towards the front of the machine. Mixing auger 1 [B] returns the excess developer, along with new toner, to the rear of the mixing assembly.
DEVELOPMENT 2.6.4 DEVELOPMENT BIAS A267D303.WMF This machine uses a negative-positive development system, in which black areas of the latent image are at a low negative charge (about –150 ± 50 V) and white areas are at a high negative charge (about -900 V). To attract negatively charged toner to the black areas of the latent image on the drum, the high voltage supply board applies a bias of -600 volts to the development rollers throughout the image development process.
DEVELOPMENT 2.6.5 TONER SUPPLY Toner bottle replenishment mechanism A265D507.WMF When a toner bottle is placed in the bottle holder unit [A] and the unit is pushed in completely, pin [B] moves against the side [C] of the PCU, and the toner shutter [D] is pulled out to open the bottle.
DEVELOPMENT Toner supply mechanism A265D508.WMF A267D306.WMF The toner supply motor [A] drives the toner bottle [B] and the mylar blades [C]. First, the toner falls down into the toner bottle holder. The toner supply mylar blades transfer the toner to the slit [D]. When the PCU is installed in the machine, the shutter [E] above the PCU is opened by the machine frame.
DEVELOPMENT 2.6.6 TONER DENSITY CONTROL Overview There are four modes for controlling toner supply as shown in the following tables. The mode can be changed with by SP2-921. The factory setting is sensor control 1 mode. Basically, toner density is controlled using the standard TD sensor voltage (Vts), toner supply reference voltage (Vref), actual TD sensor output voltage (Vt), and ID sensor output data (Vsp/Vsg).
Page 97
DEVELOPMENT There are four toner density control modes as follows. Mode Sensor control 1 (SP2-921, “0”): Normally use this setting only Toner supply decision Compare Vt with a reference voltage (Vts or Vref) Toner is supplied to the development unit when Vt is higher Toner control process than the reference voltage (Vts or Vref).
DEVELOPMENT Toner density sensor initial setting The TD sensor initial setting procedure is performed automatically when the new PCU is installed in the machine. During TD sensor initial setting, the TD sensor is set so that the TD sensor output to the value of SP2-926 (default: 2.3V). This value will be used as the standard reference voltage (Vts) of the TD sensor.
DEVELOPMENT Toner Supply Motor On Time Determinations For fixed control mode, the toner supply motor on time is specified by the setting of SP2-925, and does not vary. The default setting is 200 ms for each copy. The toner supply motor on time for each value of SP2-925 is as follows. Value of SP2-925 Motor On Time (t = 200 ms) Continuously...
DEVELOPMENT 2.6.7 TONER SUPPLY IN ABNORMAL SENSOR CONDITIONS ID sensor Readings are abnormal if any of the following conditions occur: • Vsg ≤ 2.5V • Vsg < 3.5V when maximum power (254) is applied • Vsp ≥ 2.5V • (Vsg – Vsp) < 1.0V •...
DEVELOPMENT Toner Near End Recovery If the machine detects “Vt < (Vref or Vts) + 4S/5” twice consecutively when in one of the following situations, the machine leaves the toner near end condition. • While in the toner recovery cycle (supplying toner on and off for 30 s – see the previous page) after the machine has detected a toner near end condition.
DRUM CLEANING AND TONER RECYCLING 2.7 DRUM CLEANING AND TONER RECYCLING 2.7.1 DRUM CLEANING A267D201.WMF The cleaning blade [A] removes any toner remaining on the drum after the image is transferred to the paper. This model uses a counter blade system. The cleaning blade scrapes off toner remaining on the drum.
DRUM CLEANING AND TONER RECYCLING 2.7.2 TONER RECYCLING A267D205.WMF A267D306.WMF Toner picked up by the toner collection coil [A], is transported to the opening [B] in the side of the PCU. Then, this toner falls into the development unit with new toner coming from the toner bottle and it is all mixed together by mixing auger 1 [C] and used again.
PAPER FEED 2.8 PAPER FEED 2.8.1 OVERVIEW A267D701.WMF There are two paper trays, each of which can hold 500 sheets. The paper tray feed stations use a friction pad system. The two relay sensors are used for paper jam detection. The components of the paper feed station are as follows.
PAPER FEED 2.8.2 PAPER FEED DRIVE MECHANISM A267D702.WMF The main motor [A] drives the pick-up and feed mechanism of both the first and second paper trays. The paper feed clutches [B] transfer drive from this motor to the paper feed rollers [C]. When the paper feed clutch turns on, the feed rollers start to feed the paper.
PAPER FEED 2.8.3 PAPER FEED AND SEPARATION MECHANISM A860D104.WMF The paper feed roller [A] drives the top sheet of paper from the paper tray to the copier. The friction pad [B] allows only one sheet to feed at a time. The friction pad applies pressure to the feed roller with a spring [C].
PAPER FEED 2.8.4 PAPER LIFT MECHANISM A265D521.WMF A265D522.WMF The paper size switch detects when the tray is pushed in. When the paper tray is pushed into the machine, the pin [A] for the lift motor pressure shaft engages the lift motor coupling [B] and the pin [C] for the bottom plate lift shaft in the tray engages the bottom plate pressure lever coupling [D].
PAPER FEED For A4-width paper or wider, a projection [H] on the side fence engages the secondary pressure spring [J] through a lever [I]. Then, the secondary pressure spring [J] applies paper feed pressure in addition to the main pressure spring [K], to ensure that extra pressure is applied to wider paper.
PAPER FEED 2.8.6 PAPER HEIGHT DETECTION A265D522.WMF The amount of paper in the tray is detected by the combination of on/off signals from two paper height sensors [A] and [B]. However, these outputs are only used when the optional printer controller is installed. When the amount of paper decreases, the bottom plate pressure lever [C] moves the actuator up.
PAPER FEED 2.8.7 FEED PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT FOR PAPER SIZE Overview For the friction pad system, the pressure from the top of the stack against the feed roller is very important for paper feed quality from the paper tray. If the pressure is high, double feed may occur.
PAPER FEED Feed Pressure Adjustment The pressure can be adjusted to solve a paper feed problem. This adjusts the amount of lift motor reverse just after the lift sensor is activated when lifting the stack to the paper feed position. To apply less pressure to the top of the stack, the amount of reverse should be increased.
Page 112
PAPER FEED From paper near end to paper end When paper is used up, the pressure on the bottom plate reduces, so the upward pressure increases, causing the pressure of the feed roller against the top of the stack to increase. However, for small paper sizes, because of the previous correction (600 ms reverse rotation of the lift motor), the pressure between the feed roller and the top of the stack becomes too small at some point as paper is used up, and this could...
PAPER FEED 2.8.9 SPECIAL PAPER SETTING A267D703.WMF When feeding thick paper and envelopes, the user must use the 2nd paper tray (if the optional by-pass table is not installed), and turn lever [A] to the right. Then, when sliding the tray into the machine, the lever will not push the special paper switch [B] (it stays off), and the machine detects that there is special paper in the 2nd paper tray.
PAPER FEED 2.8.10 SIDE AND END FENCES A860D110.WMF A860D109.WMF Side Fences If the tray is full of paper and it is pushed in strongly, the fences may deform or bend. This may cause the paper to skew or the side-to-side registration to be incorrect.
PAPER FEED 2.8.11 PAPER REGISTRATION A267D702.WMF A267D704.WMF The drive from the main motor [A] is transmitted to the registration roller through the registration clutch gear [B]. The registration sensor [C] is used for correcting paper skew and for detecting paper misfeeds. The cleaning pad [D] contacts the registration roller.
IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION 2.9 IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION 2.9.1 OVERVIEW A267D403.WMF A267D401.WMF A267D402.WMF The machine uses a transfer roller [A], which touches the surface of the drum [B]. The high voltage supply board supplies a positive current to the transfer roller, which attracts the toner from the drum onto the paper.
IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION 2.9.2 IMAGE TRANSFER CURRENT TIMING There are two transfer current levels: low transfer current level and high transfer current level. The image transfer procedure is as follows: 1. When the CPU receives the image writing start signal, the CPU instructs the high voltage supply board to supply +10µA (low transfer current level) to the roller.
IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION 2.9.3 TRANSFER ROLLER CLEANING If the paper size is smaller than the image, or if a paper jam occurs during printing, toner may be transferred to the roller surface. To prevent the toner from transferring to the back side of the printouts, the transfer roller requires cleaning before the next printing run.
IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 2.10 IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 2.10.1 OVERVIEW A267D516.WMF The fusing unit and paper exit area consist of the following parts. 1. Paper exit roller 7. Fusing lamp 2. Fusing exit sensor 8. Thermistor 3. Hot roller strippers 9.
IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 2.10.2 FUSING DRIVE AND RELEASE MECHANISM A267D504.WMF A267D505.WMF The main motor [A] drives the fusing unit through a gear train and drives the paper exit rollers [B] through a timing belt [C]. The fusing unit release mechanism automatically disengages the fusing unit drive gear [D] when the right cover [E] is opened.
IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 2.10.3 FUSING ENTRANCE GUIDE SHIFT MECHANISM A267D506.WMF The entrance guide [A] is adjustable for paper thickness to prevent creasing. The left screw holes [B] on each side are used as the default setting. If creasing occurs frequently in the fusing unit, adjust the entrance guide to the right, by securing it with the other holes [C].
IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 2.10.4 PRESSURE ROLLER A267D502.WMF The pressure springs [A] constantly apply pressure between the hot roller [B] and the pressure roller [C]. Applied pressure can be changed by adjusting the position of the pressure springs. The spring is positioned at the top [D] as the default setting. The user moves lever [E] when using thicker copy paper or envelopes, to reduce the pressure between the hot and pressure rollers.
IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 2.10.6 FUSING TEMPERATURE CONTROL ºC Idling Enabled Power On 1 job or 11 pages A267D511.WMF Temperature Control When the main power switch is turned on, the CPU turns on the fusing lamp to maintain the fusing temperature of 180°C for the first job, or for the first 11 consecutive pages of printing.
IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT Fusing Lamp Control Turning on and off the fusing lamp power causes fluorescent light in the room to flicker. To reduce the flickering, use the following SP modes. Fusing temperature detection cycle (SP mode 1-108) The CPU checks the output from the fusing thermistor once a second (default setting).
IMAGE FUSING AND PAPER EXIT 2.10.7 OVERHEAT PROTECTION If the hot roller temperature becomes higher than 231°C, the CPU cuts off the power to the fusing lamp. At the same time, SC543 is generated. Even if the thermistor overheat protection fails, there is a thermofuse in series with the common ground line of the fusing lamp.

PICK-UP AND SEPARATION 2.2 PICK-UP AND SEPARATION A858D504.WMF A858D505.WMF The original is set with the image facing up. The original pushes actuator [A] and the original set sensor [E] is activated. After pressing the start button, the pick-up solenoid [D] is activated and the lift plate [C] lifts the original up until it comes in contact with the pick-up roller [B].
ORIGINAL TRANSPORT AND EXIT 2.3 ORIGINAL TRANSPORT AND EXIT 2.3.1 SINGLE-SIDED ORIGINALS A858D506.WMF The DF feed motor feeds the separated original to the first transport roller [A] at maximum speed. When the registration sensor [B] detects the leading edge, the motor stops for a short while.
ORIGINAL TRANSPORT AND EXIT 2.3.2 DOUBLE-SIDED ORIGINALS A858D204.WMF A858D205.WMF When the registration sensor [B] detects the leading edge of the original, the DF feed motor (which drives the feed roller) and transport motor (which drives the transport roller) both switch off. After a brief interval, the transport motor alone reactivates to drive the first [A] and second transport roller [G] and the exit roller [F].
ORIGINAL TRANSPORT AND EXIT A858D206.WMF A858D207.WMF The original is then sent to the reverse table [H] a second time to be turned over. This is done so that the duplex copies will be properly stacked (front side down) in the exit tray [J] in the correct order. 2.3.3 ORIGINAL TRAILING EDGE SENSOR During one-to-one copying, copy paper is fed to the registration roller in advance (while the original is still being scanned), to increase the copy speed.
STAMP 2.4 STAMP A858D507.WMF This function is only for fax mode. There is a stamp [A] between the 2nd transport roller [B] and the exit roller [C], and its solenoid is controlled by the copier directly. When the original reaches the stamp position, the DF feed motor stops. At 300 milliseconds after stopping the DF feed motor, the stamp solenoid turns on if the page was sent successfully (immediate transmission) or stored successfully (memory transmission).
CONDITION OF JAM DETECTION 2.6 CONDITION OF JAM DETECTION JAM 1A: If the registration sensor does not turn on within X1 ms after original feed starts. X1=(114x1.1)/line speed + 2000 ms JAM 1B: If the registration sensor does not turn on within 500 ms after the leading edge of the original reaches the original reverse sensor (duplex mode only) JAM 2: If the registration sensor does not turn off within X2 mm after turning on.
OVERALL ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT 2.7 OVERALL ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT The DF CPU controls the transport motor, DF feed motor, DF feed clutch, junction Gate solenoid, stamp solenoid, and pick-up solenoid. The DF CPU also monitors all DF sensors and provides updated status information when prompted at regular intervals by the mainframe, which may then take action based on this information.

ELECTRICAL COMPONENT DESCRIPTION 1.4 ELECTRICAL COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Symbol Name Function Index No. Motors Tray Drives all rollers. Upper Lift Lifts the upper tray bottom plate. Lower Lift Lifts the lower tray bottom plate. Sensors Upper Lift Detects when the paper in the upper tray is at the correct feed height.
PAPER FEED AND SEPARATION MECHANISM 2. DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS 2.1 PAPER FEED AND SEPARATION MECHANISM A860D104.WMF The paper tray holds 500 sheets. The paper feed roller [A] drives the top sheet of paper from the paper tray to the copier. The friction pad [B] allows only one sheet to feed at a time.
PAPER LIFT MECHANISM 2.2 PAPER LIFT MECHANISM A860D106.WMF A860D107.WMF The paper size switch detects when the tray is pushed in. When the paper tray is pushed into the machine, the pin [A] for the lift motor pressure shaft engages the lift motor coupling [B] and the pin [C] for the bottom plate lift shaft in the tray engages the bottom plate pressure lever coupling [D].
Page 386
PAPER LIFT MECHANISM The paper size thresholds for this feature depend on SP1-908-8, 9, 17, and 18. (Note that there are two paper size thresholds for each tray: small and middle. Some models only use the small threshold.) The amount of reverse depends on SP 1-908-1, 2, 3, 10, 11, and 12.
PAPER END DETECTION 2.3 PAPER END DETECTION A860D105.WMF If there is some paper in the paper tray, the paper stack raises the paper end feeler [A] and the paper end sensor [B] is deactivated. When the paper tray runs out of paper, the paper end feeler drops into the cutout [C] in the tray bottom plate and the paper end sensor is activated.
PAPER HEIGHT DETECTION 2.4 PAPER HEIGHT DETECTION A860D107.WMF The amount of paper in the tray is detected by the combination of on/off signals from two paper height sensors [A] and [B]. When the amount of paper decreases, the bottom plate pressure lever [C] moves the actuator up.
Page 389
PAPER HEIGHT DETECTION The amount of remaining paper depends on SP modes 1-908-6, 7, 15, and 16. The amount of forward rotation depends on SP1-908-4, 5, 13, and 14. Note that there are two paper size thresholds for each tray: small and middle (this is the same as for the paper lift mechanism described earlier).
SIDE AND END FENCES 2.6 SIDE AND END FENCES A860D110.WMF A860D109.WMF Side Fences If the tray is full of paper and it is pushed in strongly, the fences may deform or bend. This may cause the paper to skew or the side-to-side registration to be incorrect.

Rear Fence Moves the rear fence to transfer the paper Motor stack from the paper storage (left) side of the tray to the paper feed (right) side.
PAPER FEED 2. DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS 2.1 PAPER FEED A862D104.WMF This products uses an FRR (Feed and Reverse Roller) type paper feed mechanism. The paper feed unit consists of the pickup roller [A], paper feed roller [B], reverse roller [C], and grip and transport rollers. There is a torque limiter in the back of the reverse roller (ferrite powder type).
REVERSE ROLLER AND PICK-UP ROLLER RELEASE 2.2 REVERSE ROLLER AND PICK-UP ROLLER RELEASE A862D107.WMF A862D108.WMF To prevent the paper from being torn when pulling out the paper feed tray, the reverse and pickup rollers are set so that they release automatically. When the paper tray [A] is not inside the machine, the reverse roller [B] is away from the paper feed roller [C] and the pick-up roller [D] stays in the upper position.
TRAY LIFT 2.3 TRAY LIFT A862D110.WMF When the paper feed tray is put in the machine, the tray switch [A] on the back face turns on and the tray lift motor [B] starts up. The base plate lift shaft [C] is coupled to the lift motor at shaft [D], so the base plate of the tray is lifted.
NEAR END/END DETECTION 2.4 NEAR END/END DETECTION This tray can hold two stacks of paper, so the machine needs to monitor the status of both these stacks. There are seven sensors to do this. In the right tray (paper feed side), three height sensors measure the height of the stack, and an end sensor detects when all the paper is used up.
RIGHT TRAY SIDE FENCE 2.5 RIGHT TRAY SIDE FENCE A862D109.WMF When the paper in the right tray is used up, the side fence solenoid [F] activates and stays on until the side fence open/closed sensor [E] detects that the fence is open.
RIGHT TRAY PAPER END DETECTION 2.7 RIGHT TRAY PAPER END DETECTION A862D106.WMF A862D111.WMF The paper end sensor [A] detects when copy paper in the right tray runs out. When there is paper in the tray, the paper pushes up the paper end feeler [B] and causes the actuator to come between the LED and photo diode of the sensor.
DETACHING THE TRAY FROM THE MAINFRAME REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT 3.1 DETACHING THE TRAY FROM THE MAINFRAME While pressing the stopper attached to the guide rail, pull out the large capacity tray. NOTE: When reinstalling the tray, set the tray on the guide rail and carefully push the tray in, making sure to keep the tray level.

DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS 2. DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS 2.1 IMAGE DATA PROCESSING There are two image-processing modes for printer edge smoothing and toner saving mode. The controller uses the engine’s FCI (Fine Character Image) function for smoothing. The controller performs the toner saving function using ASIC (Ricky- R).
ENGINE FUNCTIONS Interleave All the applications have the same priority. An application can print even while another application is using the printer engine. If there are multiple print requests to the print engine, the engine will adjust its print priorities and the sequence of printed pages.
DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS 2.3 CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS 2.3.1 PAPER SIZE/TYPE DETECTION AND SELECTION The controller uses the paper sizes detected by the print engine for trays 1, 2, 3 and 4. For the by-pass tray, the user has to specify a paper size using the Job Control menu in the Printer User Tools.
CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS Manual Tray Select Tray 1 Start of Tray Search Tray 2 (Tray selected by the driver) Tray 3 (optional) Tray 4 (optional) B306D502.WMF When the printer driver specifies a tray, the selected tray becomes the first tray checked at the start of the tray search. If the selected tray does not have the size and type of paper specified by the driver, the controller searches the other trays for the same paper size and paper type.
DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS Paper Size Mismatch When the controller could not find the specified paper size and paper type in any of the trays, the machine displays an error message. Then the user can either load the requested paper size and paper type in a tray or select another tray, e.g., a tray that contains A4 size paper, by pressing the “Form Feed”...
CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS 2.3.4 COLLATION (SORT) When the controller has either an optional SDRAM DIMM or an optional HDD installed, collation is enabled. If the memory or HDD becomes full while storing a job that uses collation, the controller prints the pages that have been stored for collation, empties the memory or HDD, then continues printing the rest of the pages with collation.
DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS 2.3.5 DUPLEX PRINTING Duplex printing is available with all output bin options but not all paper sizes (refer to the specifications section of the copier manual). If a job specifies duplex but the paper size to be used is not usable in the duplex unit, the job will be printed single- sided.
CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS 2.3.7 PROOF PRINT H D D Controller Collate Partition R I P Proof Partition Host Computer Engine B306D503.WMF The Proof Print function gives users a chance to check the print results before starting a multiple-set print run. When printing from a host computer, a print job is sent to the controller with a user ID and the current time.
DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS 2.3.8 RESET OPERATIONS Job Reset This resets the job being processed and ignores all incoming data until a data end is received. If a collate job or a proof print job is being printed, the controller stops printing and deletes the file from the RAM or HDD.
