  • Page 75: Characteristic Of Toner

    3. 1 Characteristic of Toner The toner used on KIP9000 has a characteristic to be charged “negative” (like a negative object), which tends to be attracted to a relatively “positive” object. Suppose that there are objects A and B, and the situation is as follows. 1.

  • Page 76: Print Processes

  • Page 78: Erasing

    3. 2. 1 Erasing As the first step of print cycle, the negative electric charges on the Drum are removed by Erasing process, which remained there after the former print cycle. The Drum has a characteristic to lose the negative electric charges when exposed to the light. So the Drum is rotated and evenly exposed to the light from the Eraser Lamp.

  • Page 79: Drum Cleaning

    3. 2. 2 Drum Cleaning Small amount of toner is remaining on the Drum as it was not transferred onto the printing media in the former print cycle. Drum Cleaning is a process to remove such toner from the Drum with the Cleaning Roller.

  • Page 80: Charge Of Drum

  • Page 81: Exposure

    3. 2. 4 Exposure According to the printed image pattern, the LED Head throws light onto a certain area of the Drum that corresponds to the black area of printed image pattern. As the Drum has a characteristic to lose the negative electric charges when exposed to the light, the potential of this exposed area is increased to about -50V.

  • Page 82: Development

    3. 2. 5 Development The Developer Roller is evenly covered with the toner, and it is contacted to the Drum firmly. (The width of contacting area is about 5mm.) The Developer Roller is supplied with -YV of Developer Bias which is flexibly adjusted by the Auto Density Control. On the other hand, an Electrostatic Latent Image consisting of -XV area and -YV area exists on the Drum.
  • Page 83 Reference Very small amount of toner may be remaining on “white image area” (corresponds to -XV area) of Drum if Drum Cleaning process could not remove the toner completely. Such unnecessary toner in white image area can be removed surely by the Developer Roller because of the relationship of potential between Drum and Developer Roller.

  • Page 84: Pre-Transfer Led

    3. 2. 6 Pre-transfer LED The potential of non-toner area of the Drum is -XV even after the Development process, which is so high that the print media may not be separated smoothly from the Drum on later Separation Process as it is strongly attracted to -XV area by the static force, and may result in a jam in the worst case.

  • Page 85: Transfer

    3. 2. 7 Transfer The Transfer Corona takes positive discharging to charge the printing media positively. As the toner existing on negative Drum surface is attracted to the positive printing media, the toner image can be transferred onto the media. The voltage supplied to the Transfer Corona Wire is as follows.

  • Page 86: Separation

    3. 2. 8 Separation The printing media is stuck to the Drum after the Transfer being attracted by the static force. It is necessary for avoiding the jam to separate the media from the Drum smoothly removing the static force. The Separation Corona takes AC discharge being supplied with the AC voltage and the DC voltage.

  • Page 87: Fusing

    3. 2. 9 Fusing After Transfer / Separation Processes, the Inner Transportation Unit carries the printing media to the Fuser Unit. The Fuser Unit mainly consists of the Fuser Roller and the Pressure Roller. The toner is firmly fused onto the printing media by the heat and the pressure when the media passes through between the Fuser Roller and Pressure Roller.

  • Page 88: Controlling The Movement Of Toner In The Developer Unit

    3. 3 Controlling the Movement of Toner in the Developer Unit Developer Unit is provided with 3 rollers “Developer Roller”, “Regulation Roller” and “Toner Supply Roller”, which are provided with their own Bias respectively as the following table. The voltage of the Developer Roller (-YV) is measured against the ground, and the voltages for other items are the difference against the Developer Roller Bias (-YV).
  • Page 89 Taking advantage of the difference of potentials among these rollers, the movement of toner is controlled in the Developer Unit as follows. 1. The Toner Supply Roller carries the toner toward the Developer Roller. 2. The voltage of the Toner Supply Roller is 350V lower than that of Developer Roller. When the toner reaches the contact point of these rollers, it moves onto the Developer Roller.
  • Page 90 5. The voltage of both sides of Regulation Roller is 365V higher than the Developer Roller Bias. When the toner reaches the contact point of these rollers, it moves onto the Regulation Roller. The side areas of the Developer Roller are not covered with the toner as a result, which can prevent the toner drops into the machine from the side.

  • Page 91: Toner Collection Process

    3. 4 Toner Collection Process As explained in [3.2.2 Drum Cleaning] on page 3-6, the Cleaning Roller removes and collects the remained toner on the Drum using +800V of voltage supplied to it in the print cycle. KIP9000 takes an operation to return the collected toner to the Developer Unit in the following 3 cases. (This process to return the toner is called “Toner Collection Process”.) (1) When the KIP9000 is going to stop after printing out all the accumulated print jobs.
  • Page 92 3. The voltage supplied to the Developer Roller is also changed to +350V (+/-3V) in the Toner Collection Process. As the potential of Developer Roller becomes higher than that of Drum, toner on the Drum moves onto the Developer Roller. Then the toner is carried into the Developer Unit by both the Developer Roller and the Toner Supply Roller.
  • Page 93 Reference Voltages supplied to Regulation Roller and Toner Supply Roller are changed also as follows. Name of roller Supplied Voltage Supplied voltage (Against the ground) (Against the Developer Roller Bias) Developer Roller +350V +/-3V Toner Supply Roller -350V +/-3V Regulation Roller -100V +/-3V (Center) Regulation Roller...

  • Page 94: Automatic Controls

    3. 5 Automatic Controls 3. 5. 1 Auto Density Control If the temperature of installation site varies while the Developer Bias is always fixed to a constant level, the print image may become lighter or darker than expected. Especially when the temperature falls, the print image tends to become lighter.

  • Page 95: Density Lock

    3. 5. 1. 1 Density Lock Density Lock is a process to provide “Target Density” to KIP9000, which is performed in the factory in most of cases. (This may have to be done in the field very rarely.) This process is very important as the Target Density specified here will continue to be the expected density applied on all print/copy afterward.

  • Page 96: Auto Density Control

    3. 5. 1. 2 Auto Density Control The Auto Density Control is a process to adjust the actual density to the same level with “Target Density” in any temperature condition by increasing or decreasing the Developer Bias flexibly. The Auto Density Control can work when it is set to ON (ON1 or ON2) in the Service Mode 5-AA (or User Mode E).

  • Page 97: Auto Sp Control

    3. 5. 2 Auto SP Control A proper voltage gap must be maintained between [Bias] (Developer Bias) and [SP; white] (Surface Potential for white) for avoiding a foggy background problem. SP black Bias SP white But if the Auto Density Control increases (adjusts to more negative side) the [Bias], the voltage gap between [Bias] and [SP: white] may become so small.
  • Page 98 The value of [SP: white] adjusted by the Auto SP Control relies on the “Target Surface Potential” that is specified on the following service modes to each setting points (5 to 30 C by every 5 step) respectively. Service Mode 5-A3 : Target Surface Potential at 5 5-A4 : Target Surface Potential at 10 5-A5 : Target Surface Potential at 15 5-A6 : Target Surface Potential at 20...
  • Page 99 2. On the other hand, the Auto SP Control calculates the necessary [SP: white] based on the temperature detected by the Temperature Sensor. 3. The actual surface potential detected by Surface Potential Sensor is compared with the calculated [SP: white]. 4.
