  • Page 2 IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICES PREVENTION OF PHYSICAL INJURY 1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the printer and peripherals, make sure that the power cord is unplugged. 2. The wall outlet should be near the printer and easily accessible. 3. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior covers off or open while the main switch is turned on, keep hands away from electrified or mechanically driven components.
  • Page 3 SAFETY AND ECOLOGICAL NOTES FOR DISPOSAL 1. Dispose of replaced parts in accordance with local regulations. 2. Used ink and masters should be disposed of in an environmentally safe manner and in accordance with local regulations. 3. When keeping used lithium batteries (from the main processing units) in order to dispose of them later, do not store more than 100 batteries (from the main processing units) per sealed box.

  • Page 37: Paper Feed

    PAPER BANK 1 March, 2000 2.1.2 PAPER FEED Front View C232D001.WMF The pick-up roller [A] and paper feed roller [B] are driven by the tray feed motor. The pick-up roller picks up paper from the top of the stack. Friction between the feed rollers and the friction pad [C] allows only the top sheet to pass towards the tray exit rollers.
  • Page 38 1 March, 2000 PAPER BANK Rear View C232D002.WMF The tray feed start sensor [A] controls paper feed timing from the paper trays. The tray paper feed motor turns on a pre-determined duration after actuator [B] interrupts the tray feed start sensor. Similarly, the tray registration motor turns on using actuator [C].
  • Page 39: Tandem Tray Mechanisms

    PAPER BANK 1 March, 2000 2.1.3 TANDEM TRAY MECHANISMS Tray Positioning C232D009.WMF When the tray is placed in the machine, the lock lever [A] drops behind the lock plate [B] on the slide rail support bracket to lock the tray in the proper position. NOTE: The same type of mechanism is used also for tray 2.
  • Page 40 1 March, 2000 PAPER BANK Tray Lock Mechanism C232D013.WMF During printing, the tray lock solenoid [A] turns on and lock plate [B] locks the tray. This mechanism is the same in the right and left halves of the tandem tray. NOTE: The same type of mechanism is used also for tray 2.
  • Page 41 PAPER BANK 1 March, 2000 Tandem Back Plate Drive Mechanism C232D010.WMF When the left tray paper length sensor [A] detects paper and the tray 1 paper end sensor [B] detects no paper, the back plate drive motor [C] moves the back plate [D].
  • Page 42: Paper Lift

    1 March, 2000 PAPER BANK 2.1.4 PAPER LIFT Tray 1 C232D004.WMF Tray 2 C232D005.WMF When the machine detects that the paper tray has been placed in the machine (detected by the connector at the rear of the tray), the lift motor [A] rotates and the coupling gear [B] on the tray lift motor engages the pin [C] on the lift arm shaft [D].
  • Page 43: 5Tray Upper Limit Detection And Paper Height Control

    PAPER BANK 1 March, 2000 2.1.5 TRAY UPPER LIMIT DETECTION AND PAPER HEIGHT CONTROL C232D006.WMF The tray goes up until the top of the paper stack pushes up the paper pick-up roller [A] and the actuator [B] activates the upper limit sensor [C] to stop the tray lift motor.

    1 March, 2000 PAPER BANK 2.1.6 SIDE FENCE POSITIONING AND PAPER SIZE DETECTION Tray 1 C232D011.WMF C232D004.WMF The front and rear tray paper width sensors [A] and [B] monitor the paper width. These sensors detect the paper size in tray 1, in combination with the reading from the left tray paper length sensor [C].
  • Page 45 PAPER BANK 1 March, 2000 Tray 2 C232D005.WMF C232D012.WMF The paper width in tray 2 is monitored in the same way as tray 1. The width sensors detect the paper size in tray 2, in combination with the reading from the tray 2 paper length sensor.
