4514-6xx Notes: • Resetting the printer deletes all security settings. • Before changing the security settings, ask for permission from your administrator. Turn off the printer. Access the controller board. Move the jumper to cover the middle and exposed prongs. Note: The small yellow jumper is located beside a lock icon on the controller board.
4514-6xx Theory of operation POR sequence As the printer is turned on, the engine code goes through a series of tests to verify hardware integrity. If a hardware failure is detected, then it is reported to the printer. If the POR sequence cannot be completed successfully, then the printer may post an error message.
4514-6xx Part First input roller Secondary input roller Separator roller Pick rollers Option tray Multipurpose feeder (MPF) The driving force from the main drive motor is transmitted through the MPF gearbox. When the MPF solenoid activates, it allows the MPF sector gear linked to the MPF gearbox to rotate. The MPF pick roll shaft is connected to the MPF sector gear.
4514-6xx The media with the embedded toner image goes through the fuser assembly to permanently bond the toner to the media. When it passes between the heat belt and pressure roll of the fuser assembly, the combination of heat and pressure fuses the toner image to the media. The fuser exit roller feeds the media to the paper exit roller and then to the output bin.
4514-6xx Part First input roller Secondary input roller Duplex front deliver roller Duplex rear deliver roller Paper exit roller Media handling components Main drive gearbox The gearbox supplies all mechanical power requirements of the printer. Its motor, through several gears, transfers power to following paths: photoconductor drum, transfer roll, fuser, paper exit, input, duplex, and MPF.
4514-6xx Trailing edge sensor Detects the media’s trailing edge as it passes the pick tires. Among other capabilities, this sensor can be used to determine the paper size sensor and the media stack height. MPF sensor Detects the presence of media in the MPF tray. Media present sensor Detects the presence of media in the tray.

4514-6xx Electrophotographic process (EP process) Printhead The printhead scans the photo conductor drum surface with a laser beam. It consists of the following components: • Laser diode (LD) card assembly • Oscillator • Start of scan card assembly When a laser beam is scanned across the photoconductor drum surface from one end to the other while turning on and off the beam, one line of latent image is created.
Page 373
4514-6xx Step 2: Expose The laser fires a focused beam of light at the surface of the photoconductor and writes an invisible image, called a latent image. The laser beam only discharges the surface where the beam hits the photoconductor. This creates a difference in charge potential between the exposed area and the rest of the photoconductor surface.
