5041-030 The Clear Log operation clears out the errors that print in this report. The errors listed in the Display Log Previous operation do not necessarily match in number nor in order with the errors from the printer log. Note: This log can be printed from configuration menu, but the debug and secondary error codes are not printed on this log.
5041-030 Previous Theory of operation Print engine theory Electrophotographic Process (EP Process) Next The method that all laser and LED printers use to print is called the electrophotographic process. These machines use differences in charge to manipulate and move toner from the toner cartridge to the printed page. Go Back Even though the basic EP process is the same for every laser and LED printer, the specifics for each printer are different.
5041-030 Step 1: Charge Previous During the charge step, voltage is sent from the high-voltage power supply to the charge roller (A) beside each of the four photoconductors. The charge roller is part of the photoconductor unit. The charge roller (A) puts a uniform negative charge over the entire surface of the photoconductor to prepare it Next for the LED.
5041-030 Step 2: Expose Previous During the expose step, the LED exposes the surface of each photoconductor (B) and writes an invisible image called a latent image or electrostatic image for each color. The LED actually discharges the surface only where the beam hits the photoconductor. This creates a difference Next in charge potential between the exposed area and the rest of the photoconductor surface.
5041-030 Step 3: Develop Previous Once the laser exposes the photoconductor, the high-voltage power supply sends charge to the developer roll (C). For each color, the toner cartridge engages the photoconductor so it is in contact with the surface. Because of the charge difference between the toner on the developer roller and the electrostatic image created by the laser, the toner will attract to the photoconductor only where the laser exposed the surface.
5041-030 Step 4a: First transfer Previous When the latent images are developed on each Photoconductor, the high-voltage power supply sends voltage to the 1st Transfer Rollers inside the transfer belt unit. The charge difference between the developed toner image on the Photoconductor surface and the 1st Transfer Next Roller causes the images to transfer to the surface of the transfer belt for each color.
5041-030 Step 4b: Second transfer Previous Once the four planes of color are transferred to the transfer belt from the photoconductors, the image is carried towards the transfer roll. This transfer roll is mounted on the duplex unit. The paper passes between the transfer belt and transfer roll when the image on the belt reaches the second transfer area.
5041-030 Step 5: Fuse Previous Once the image has been fully transferred to the media, the transfer roll helps move the paper into the fuser area. The fuser applies heat and pressure to the page to melt the tiny toner particles and bond them permanently to Next the media.
5041-030 Step 6: Clean/Erase Previous There are two main cleaning processes that take place during the EP Process. One process cleans the transfer belt, and the other cleans the photoconductors. Transfer Unit Clean Next Once the toner image on the transfer belt has been transferred to the page, the transfer belt rotates around and is cleaned by the cleaning blade.
5041-030 Photoconductor Clean/Erase Previous After each plane of color has been transferred to the transfer belt from the photoconductors, a cleaning blade scrapes the remaining toner from the surface of each photoconductor. This is the clean/erase process. Next Go Back Cleaning blade Now the photoconductor surface is prepared to begin the EP cycle once again.
5041-030 Paper path components Previous Paper feed The standard paper feed sources consist of a multi-paper cassette (Tray 1), a standard paper cassette (Tray 2), and an MPF Tray. The paper feed system on the paper cassettes uses a separation roll/torque limiter to prevent Next multiple feeds.
Page 136
5041-030 Tray 2 and optional trays (3-5) Previous Trays 2 through Tray 5 use a motorized lift mechanism to engage the media in the tray with the pickup roller. Tray 1 holds up to150 sheets of 20 lb. paper and the optional Trays (3-5) can hold up to 500 sheets of 20lb paper.
5041-030 Feeding paper from a tray Previous The printer controller sends a signal to turn on the paper feed clutch; the pick roll grabs the top sheet of paper while the separator roll rotates backwards to prevent multiple sheets of paper from feeding. The paper moves to the feed roll and is fed into the paper path.
5041-030 Feeding paper from the MPF Previous To start the paper feed, the printer controller sends a signal to turn on the MPF feed clutch; the paper feed motor starts turning to feed the top sheet of paper in the MPF tray one by one. Once the duplex exit/MPF detection lever senses the leading edge of the media at the duplex exit roller, it engages the duplex re-feed clutch to transport the sheet of paper into the paper path.
Page 139
5041-030 Paper registration Previous As the media trips the Registration Sensor, it briefly stops at the Registration Rollers. Here, the leading edge is adjusted so it is parallel with the image on the Transfer Belt and synchronized with the Belt’s rotation. Next, the paper feed motor triggers the Registration Clutch to rotate the Registration Rollers to feed the paper toward the Transfer Belt and 2nd Transfer Roller.
Page 140
5041-030 Duplexing Previous If a page is two-sided, a signal is sent to the Printer Controller Board once the trailing edge of the paper passes the Fuser Exit Sensor. The leading edge of the paper partially feeds from the Exit Rolls and then reverses direction and feeds into the Duplex Unit.
5041-030 Color theory Previous What is RGB color? Red, green, and blue light can be added together in various amounts to produce a large range of colors observed in nature. For example, red and green can be combined to create yellow. Televisions and computer Next monitors create colors in this manner.
5041-030 My color transparencies seem dark when they are projected. Is there anything I can Previous do to improve the color? This problem most commonly occurs when projecting transparencies with reflective overhead projectors. To obtain the highest projected color quality, transmissive overhead projectors are recommended. If a reflective projector must be used, then adjusting the Toner Darkness setting to 1, 2, or 3 will lighten the transparency.
5041-030 How can I match a particular color (such as a corporate logo)? Previous From the printer Quality menu, nine types of Color Samples sets are available. These are also available from the Color Samples page of the Embedded Web Server. Selecting any sample set generates a multiple-page printout consisting of hundreds of colored boxes.
