Laser Exposure • The LD drive board controls both the laser output and laser synchronization mechanism. • The machine cuts off the power supply to the LD drive board if the front or right cover is opened. Auto Power Control (APC) The LD driver IC drives the laser diode.
7. Detailed Descriptions LD Safety Switch To ensure technician and user safety and to prevent the laser beam from inadvertently switching on during servicing, safety switches are located at the front and right covers. The switches are installed on the +5VLD line through the BICU board. When the front cover or the right cover is opened, the power supply to the laser diode is interrupted.
7. Detailed Descriptions Mechanism Drum Drive Mechanism The main motor [C] drives the drum through gear [B] and the drum drive shaft [A]. If the motor speed exceeds the regulation speed, the motor stops for safety. Drum Charge Charging the drum is performed by the charge roller [A]. The HVPS applies the bias to the charge roller via a receptacle and electrode terminal.
Charging Bias Correction (Environmental Correction) With a drum charge roller system, the voltage transferred from roller to drum varies with the temperature and humidity around the charge roller. The higher the temperature or humidity is the higher the applied voltage required. To compensate, the machine uses the ID sensor to measure the effects of current environmental conditions.
Page 538
7. Detailed Descriptions 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]. If the sensor output reaches a certain point, the drum charge voltage will be reduced.
ID Sensor The ID sensor is used to keep image density constant by monitoring the density of a standard sensor pattern. Based on the ID sensor readings, the machine adjusts the development bias, drum potential and LD power. The ID sensor does not check each page or each job. The ID sensor check is done at the following times: •...
7. Detailed Descriptions To remove the toner and other particles that are accumulated at the edge of the cleaning blade, the drum turns in reverse for about 6 mm at the end of every copy job. Toner Recycling Toner on the drum [D] is scooped by the cleaning blade [C]. Scooped toner is then picked up by the toner collection coil [A] and transported to the opening [B] in the side of the PCU.
Development and Toner Supply This machine uses a single-roller development system. Two mixing augers mix the developer. The toner density (TD) sensor and image density (ID) sensor (see the illustration in the PCU section) are used to control the image density on the copy. Mechanism Drive The main motor [D] drives the development roller [B] and mixing augers [A] through gear [C] and the...
Development and Toner Supply Toner Supply When a toner bottle [A] is set, the transporter nozzle [B] is inserted into the bottle. Toner supply motor drives the mixing auger [C] through gear [D], horizontally transporting the toner inside the toner bottle. Stable and precise toner supply and reduction of remaining toner are achieved through transportation by an auger.
Page 546
7. Detailed Descriptions Supplied toner is divided into new toner supplied from the toner bottle and toner collected from the inside of the machine (recycled toner). New toner transported by the auger [A] passes through the mixing auger and the shutter [D] and falls down into the PCDU through the slit [C].
Development and Toner Supply Toner Density Control There are four modes for controlling toner supply, which can be changed with by SP2-921-001. The factory setting is sensor control 1 mode. Basically, the toner concentration in the developer is controlled using the toner supply reference voltage (Vtref), actual TD sensor output voltage (Vt), and ID sensor output data (Vsp/Vsg).
Page 548
7. Detailed Descriptions The four-toner density control modes are as follows. Mode Sensor control 1 (SP2-921-001, "0"): Normally use this setting only Toner supply decision Compare Vt with a reference voltage (Vtref) Toner is supplied to the development unit when Vt is higher than the reference voltage (Vtref).

7. Detailed Descriptions Name Name Fusing lamp Mechanism Fusing Unit Drive Fusing Unit Drive The main motor [C] drives the hot roller [A] through the drive gear. Pressure roller [B] rotates together with the hot roller. Contact/Release Control The drive power is not transmitted to the fusing unit during warming up when the fusing temperature (at the start) is 17 °C or higher.
Image Fusing and Paper Exit Drive Release Solenoid When the right cover is closed, the drive gear [B] engages with the fusing unit drive gear [D]. When the fusing solenoid [A] is on, the tip of the fusing bracket [C] is pulled up. As a result, the drive gear is released from the fusing unit drive gear.
7. Detailed Descriptions Pressure Roller The pressure springs constantly apply pressure between the hot roller and the pressure roller. Fusing Temperature Control: Fusing Thermistors The fusing temperature is controlled using the fusing thermistors [A].
Page 559
Image Fusing and Paper Exit The CPU checks the output from the fusing thermistor once every second. The CPU decides how long the lamps must be switched on during the next second by comparing the temperature of the fusing thermistor and the target temperature.
Page 560
7. Detailed Descriptions • Between Standby and Paper Feed In standby mode, the fusing temperature is maintained at t4 (SP1-105-012). If the operation panel or ARDF is operated during standby, the fusing temperature is maintained at t3 and kept at t3 until paper feed starts. At the beginning of paper feed, additional heat is applied and the temperature is higher than the specified fusing temperature (t1) which differs depending on paper thickness.
Page 561
Image Fusing and Paper Exit When the difference is less than 25 °C: 5 °C is added. Fusing temperature and process speed of each paper type The fusing temperature differs according to paper type. When printing on Middle Thick or Thick Paper and when printing in silent mode, the process speed is lowered.

Image Fusing and Paper Exit The thermostat used in this model has higher thermal responsiveness than those used in previous models have. Therefore, even though the operation temperature is high, the temperature of the hot roller can be kept lower, which is safer. Fusing lamp This machine uses an 860 W halogen heater [A].
7. Detailed Descriptions CPM Reduction CPM reduction is a mechanism that prevents the machine from abnormal temperature rise in the fusing unit. When the fusing thermistor (end) detects that the fusing temperature becomes 220°C or higher, the machine reduces the CPM by approx. 30% (from 30 CPM to 9 CPM) by increasing the interval of paper transported in the machine to lower the fusing temperature to the target temperature (145°C).
Paper Feed Paper Feed Overview Name Name Paper end sensor Registration Roller Paper feed roller Registration Sensor There is one paper tray, which can hold 250 sheets, in the machine. The paper tray feed stations use a friction pad system. To prevent paper from getting caught inside the machine when the tray is pulled out, the paper feed roller and shaft do not separate from the tray when the tray is pulled out.
7. Detailed Descriptions Paper Feed and Separation Mechanism 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].
7. Detailed Descriptions Paper Lift Mechanism As the tray is inserted to the mainframe, the arm attached to the pinion comes into contact with a component [B] in the mainframe and the pinion [A] rotates gradually. This causes the spring [D] to be pulled by the rack [C] and lifts the bottom plate [E].
Page 569
Paper Feed When the tray is being put in the machine, the sensor returns a paper present signal. This is because the feeler is up, even if the tray is empty (because it is raised by the bottom plate). So, if the sensor state changes to ‘detects paper’, the machine waits 3 seconds before reporting that paper is present.
7. Detailed Descriptions Bypass Tray Name Name Bypass paper end sensor Bypass paper pick-up roller Feeler Main motor Bypass paper feed roller Bypass paper feed clutch The bypass tray uses a friction pad system. When you select the bypass tray and press the Start key, the bypass paper feed clutch [F] turns ON and the drive from the main motor [E] is transferred to the bypass paper pick-up roller [D].
Paper Feed Bypass Tray Paper Registration 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. A cleaning sheet is in contact with the registration roller.
7. Detailed Descriptions Duplex Overview Name Name Paper exit/reverse roller Duplex transport roller Paper exit sensor Duplex Exit Sensor Duplex Entrance Sensor The printed sheet of paper from the fusing unit goes to the exit tray.
Paper Feed If the user selects the duplex mode, the paper exit/reverse roller [A] rotates in reverse. Also, the duplex reverse clutch turns ON and the duplex transport roller [D] rotates. The junction gate switches and the printed sheet of paper is transported to the duplex unit. Interleaving Single-sided...
