    Section II Operation 2.1 Outline This finisher receives commands from the copier and discharges into the tray the papers sent from the copier in normal mode, shift mode or staple mode. If the command to discharge into interruption copy bin is sent from the copier, it will operate accordingly.
  • Page 11 (2) Job Offset Mode The first or the last paper of each sort, is discharged into the staple tray face- up, shifted by 30mm. Whether the first paper should be shifted or the last one should be shifted depends on the command from the copier. The second paper or the first paper of the next sort, is not discharged into the staple tray but to the tray.

  • Page 13 2.1.3 Exit route There are three normal exit routes. The route that is used depends on the paper size and discharge mode. (1) Route for small size When small size paper is loaded normally, the paper passes under the buffer roller.
  • Page 14 (3) Buffer route Paper takes this route when small size paper is used in the job offset or staple mode. Offset paper or the first and the second sheet of paper which follows the final paper to be stapled takes this route. a) The first sheet of paper is transported toward the buffer roller.

  • Page 15: Mechanism

    2.2 Mechanism 2.2.1 Job offset The job offset operation, the first or last copy of each job is shifted forward, and the other copies of that job are exited in the normal position. Papers are moved by the tamper. Tamper home position detecting sensor (PI6) checks whether or not the tamper is on the home position.

  • Page 17 2.2.2 Stapling (1) Outline Copies can be stapled by the stapler unit when staple mode is selected. The stapling position is decided by the selected staple mode and paper size. The stapler shifting/home-position sensor (PI7) detects whether or not the stapler unit is in the home position.
  • Page 18 (2) The first paper When the rear end of the first paper rolls out of transport roller 2, the finisher controller P.C.B. stops the paper exit motor (M2). Then the rotation of the paper exit motor is reversed, and the gear is shifted to the swing guide drive.
  • Page 19 (3) The second and the proceeding papers When the tail edge of the second and the proceeding paper roll out of transport roller 2, the finisher controller P.C.B. turns the paddle solenoid (SL5) on. Then the transport motor's (M1) drive rotates the paddle. Papers pushed by the paddle are transported to staple tray.
  • Page 20 (4) The last paper After the last sheet of paper is finished being tapped, the finisher controller P.C.B. shifts the tamper to the tapping position (holding paper with tamper), then stops the tamper motor (M3). Then the finisher controller P.C.B. reverses the rotation of the paper exit motor (M2) again, and lowers the swing guide.

  • Page 24 (6) Stapler unit Stapling is carried out by the staple motor (M6). One staple is made every time the cam is rotated by the motor. The cam home position is detected when the staple movement home position detecting sensor (PI2) is turned ON. Normal rotation and reversed rotation of the staple motor is controlled by micro computer (Q1) on finisher controller P.C.B..
  • Page 25 2.2.3 Tray Operation (1) Outline There are three paper exit trays used for normal feed. Vertical movement of trays is carried out by the drive of the vertical shift motor (M5). Clock pulses from the tray vertical movement motor clock sensors 1 and 2 (PI19/PI9) detect the tray position after the home position detecting sensor (PI8) is activated.

  • Page 27 (2) Shutter Operation Before changing, by tray shift motor (M5) operation, the trays for receiving papers, the finisher controller P.C.B. closes the shutter on paper exit. This prevents jamming of papers loaded on tray at paper exit. The shutter moves upward (closes) when the transport motor 1 or 2 rotates in reverse, and stays in that position when the motor stops.
  • Page 28 b) Tray shift motor rotates and shifts the new tray to the lowest loading point. Tray shifting distance is detected by the tray shift motor clock sensor 1,2 (PI19,9). Tray shift motor Fig. 2-34 c) Transport motor 1 or 2 rotates in reverse and shutter moves downward. Fig.

    d) Tray shift motor rotates and adjusts the tray to the height of loaded papers. Appropriate height is detected by height sensor (PS1). Height sensor (PS1) Tray shift motor Fig. 2-36 Transport motor Claw Shutter Claw Shutter open switch (MS4) Shutter close sensor (PI5) Fig.
  • Page 30 (3) Detection of tray-loaded paper amount The amount of copies made in the sort mode (stapling or offset number) and discharged into tray, are memorized by the finisher controller P.C.B.. The height of the paper stack is detected by the height sensor (PS1). The maximum loading amount in each tray is shown in table 2-01.

  • Page 31: Fig

    2.2.4 Buffer route/operation When the finisher stops receiving paper from the copier while stapling or job offset operation, the copier has to stop operation. This finisher receives paper even while stapling or job offset operation. By transporting paper though the buffer route during stapling and offset operation, it enables the continuous operation of the copier.
  • Page 32 (3) When the lead edge of paper passes through paper sensor (PI17) at buffer entrance, the buffer exit solenoid (SL3) is turned ON, and the paper is rolled around buffer roller. Buffer entrance paper sensor (PI17) Fig. 2-42 (4) Buffer roller stops and waits for the second sheet of paper the moment the lead edge end of paper moves approximately 50mm from buffer path paper sensor (PI14).

  • Page 33: M8 Transport Motor 1 Or

    (6) The first and the second sheet of paper are transported through upper side of the buffer roller at the same time. Buffer entrance paper sensor (PI17) Fig. 2-45 (7) When the trail edge of the paper passes through the buffer entrance paper sensor (PI17), the buffer entrance flapper is turned OFF (stays on if the following sheet of paper takes large size route).
  • Page 34 2.2.5 Discharge to the interruption tray When discharge to the interruption tray is ordered by the copier, the paper is discharged into interruption tray. The process is shown below: (1) When the first sheet of paper is transported, the buffer entrance solenoid (SL2) and interruption tray solenoid (SL4) are turned ON, switching the transport route to interruption tray route.

  • Page 35: Transport Motor 2 : Fa-F355 Only

    (3) A prescribed number of paper sheets transported from the copier are discharged though the same route. Fig. 2-50 (4) When the last sheet of paper passes though the buffer path entrance sensor, the buffer pass entrance solenoid and interruption tray solenoid are turned OFF (buffer pass entrance solenoid stays ON if the following paper sheets take the large size route.
