FAX PROTOCOLS 7-1. G3 ECM (G3 Error Correction Mode) • G3 ECM is the error correction system newly recommended by Consultative Committee of International Telephone & Telegraph of 1988. • By G3 ECM, documents are divided into blocks (called partial page) for transmission. If any error takes place in any frame (one partial page consists of 256 frames) on a partial page, the receiving party generates the retransmit request with erroneous frame num- bers.

Page 398
• The Toner Empty Detection Sensor has an LED and a reflecting light detection sensor built into it. Light from the LED enters the toner detection window and is reflected off the Reflection Mirror located inside the Toner Cartridge. The reflecting light detection sensor detects this reflected light.
Page 399
DRUM CHARGE Overview • The PC Drum is charged with static electricity before laser exposure. • The Drum Charge Brush and the Pre-charge Film are used for charging. • Since the Drum Charge Brush and the Pre-charge Film directly deposit charge on the PC Drum, they produce little ozone.

Page 402
9-3. Laser Emission Timing • When a READY signal is detected a given period of time after the print command has been issued, the Controller/Mechanical Control Board outputs a laser ON signal. • The laser ON signal makes a laser beam to be emitted and the laser beam travels to the Polygon Mirror, G1 Lens, and the SOS Mirror to eventually hit the SOS Sensor, which generates an SOS signal.
Page 403
9-3.Laser Emission Timing Main scanning direction • The print start position is determined by the main scanning print start signal (/HSYNC) output from the Controller/Mechanical Control Board and the width of the paper. • The laser emission area is determined by the paper size.
