The ADF (automatic document feeder) unit contains a separation roller ASSY, document feed roller ASSY, document ejection roller, ADF motor, and document front and rear sensors. The scanner unit consists of a scanner top cover, CCD unit, CCD drive mechanism, CCD HP sensor, and scanner base.
  • Page 40 This scanner mechanism supports a dual scanning system. (1) If you set documents on the document guide base with their faces up and start the scanning operation, then the ADF motor rotates to pull in those documents into the ADF unit, starting from the top sheet to the bottom, page by page.
  • Page 41: Ink Jet Printing Mechanism

    4.2.2 Ink Jet Printing Mechanism 4.2.2.1 Paper pulling-in, registration, feeding, and ejecting mechanisms The paper pulling-in, registration, feeding, and ejecting mechanisms are driven by a single paper feed motor located at the left side of the main chassis via the two PF timing belts and gear train.

The print head has four ink-jet units for four color inks.
  • Page 44 If the controller issues a print command, a biased voltage will be applied to all electrodes formed on the surface of the piezoelectric ceramic so that each actuator will be distorted as shown with broken lines. If the electrodes on a target channel are deenergized according to drive signals, then the associated piezoelectric ceramic actuator returns to the previous form so that the ink in the manifold will be vacuumed out to the channel.
  • Page 45 (3) Head caps Shown below is a head cap mechanism that prevents the nozzles of the print heads from drying up when they are not in use. Upon completion of printing, the carriage travels to the right and moves the head cap holder provided on the purge unit to the right together.
  • Page 46: Purging Mechanism

    4.2.2.3 Purging mechanism The purge mechanism is driven by the paper feed motor located at the left side of the main chassis. As described in Subsection 4.2.2.1, the motor rotation is transmitted to the ASF/purge idle gear at the right side of the main chassis. Engaged with the ASF/purge idle gear, the ASF-purge switching gear 23 works as a clutch gear.
  • Page 47 During printing: The ASF-purge switching gear 23 is During purging: The ASF-purge not engaged with purge bevel gear A (but engaged with switching gear 23 is engaged with gear 25 in the ASF gear train). purge bevel gear A. When the motor rotation is transmitted to the purge unit, its counterclockwise rotation will drive the purge cam and its clockwise rotation, the pump switching unit (when viewed from the output gear of the motor).
  • Page 48 The purge cam is so designed that: - the carriage lock pops out to lock the carriage before purging and pops in before cleaning with the head wiper (see the illustration below), - the pump works to draw out ink from each of the four head nozzles and drain it to the ink absorber felts, and - the head wiper comes out to clean the nozzle surface (see the illustration below).
  • Page 49: Carriage Drive Mechanism

    4.2.2.4 Carriage drive mechanism The carriage motor controls horizontal motion. The motor rotation is transmitted via the motor pulley to the carriage timing belt. The carriage, which is supported and guided by the carriage rail, is secured to the timing belt. Clockwise and counterclockwise rotations of the carriage motor move the carriage to the right and left, respectively.

According to the change of the thermister's internal resistance monitored, the control circuitry regulates the drive voltage applied to the piezoelectric ceramic actuators on each print head since the viscosity of the ink varies depending upon the temperature.

  • Page 58: Replacing The Ink Cartridge

    5.2 REPLACING THE INK CARTRIDGE Your machine is equipped with an optical sensor that automatically monitors the ink level in each color cartridge. When the sensor detects an ink cartridge is running out of ink, the machine will notify you with a message on the LCD. The LCD shows you which color cartridges are low or empty.
  • Page 59 9. After installing the ink cartridges, close the Scanner cover. Your machine prepares for a "head cleaning" and goes online. The LCD prompts you to verify a new ink cartridge was inserted for each color you removed. Example: "DID YOU CHANGE BLCK? 1.YES 2.NO". If the ink cartridge you installed is not a brand new one, please make sure to select 2.
