Developing Position Of The Toner Cartridge - MINOLTA-QMS Magicolor 2200 Series Manual

4-3 Developing position of the toner cartridge

The developing position of each toner cartridge is controlled by the rack motor (stepping motor), which stops in each
developing position.
Positioning the black toner
At the same time the rack is rotated by the rack motor (M3), the developing motor rotates in reverse to mesh the gears.
When the black toner cartridge home position sensor (PC6) on the rack is set on, the rack motor stops. This rotates the
developing motor forward to eliminate gear-meshing looseness.
Positioning each toner color
The home position for the black toner cartridge is used as a reference, and the rack motor is turned 90
time (clockwise direction) and the developing (rack) position for each color is determined.
