1.1.2 PRINTER OPERATION
The printer operation during one print cycle is as
follows. (refer to belows figure)
@
@
Upon receipt of a Print command, the motor is
supplied with power and begins rotating.
The
motor's rotation also causes the printing
wheels
to
rotate,
and
the
timing
detector
generates Timing signals which correspond
to
the characters on the printing wheels.
The Timing signals are counted. When columns
(print wheels) that will be printed with a character
are detected, charging the character selective
magnets
for
the
pertinent
columns
will
mechanically
set the characters to their print
positions. For any column that does not require
printing,
not
charging
its character
selective
magnet will cause a"blank" section of the printing
wheel to be set at the print position.
When character selection for all printing wheel is
completed, the platen over the printing wheel to
print one line.
Before printing, the ribbon is automatically fed by
the
cam
gear.
After
printing,
the
page
is
automatically fed by the paper feeding gear train.
The
printing wheel
are
returned
to standby
position
by
the
selective
gear,
selective
transmission gear, and intermittent gear. During
the return phase of the printing wheel, the timing
detector generates Timing signal TS to cut off the
power supply to the motor, thereby completing
one print cycle.
