Page 37: Plate-Up Function Of The Paper Tray
3.2.1 Plate-up Function of the Paper Tray The plate ASSY in the paper tray is pushed up with the motor drive and not with the spring in order to maintain the constant pressure to the feed roller and to give the paper feeding performance.
Page 38: Paper Supply
3.2.2 Paper supply The feed roller picks up a few sheets or one sheet of paper from the paper tray every time it is rotated and feeds it to the separation roller. Pinch roller Regist roller Regist actuator rear Feed roller Regist actuator front Pressure roller PE actuator...
Page 39: Paper Registration
3.2.3 Paper registration After the paper top position is detected by the regist actuator front, the paper, separated into individual sheets by the separation roller, is fed further for a specified time, and the paper top position reaches the regist roller so that the paper skew is adjusted. Then, the regist solenoid is turned on, the regist roller starts turning, and the paper is fed to the transfer roller in the drum/toner ASSY.
Page 40: Paper Eject
3.2.4 Paper eject After the printing image on the exposure drum is transferred onto the paper, the paper is fed to the fuser unit to fix unfixed toner onto the paper by the heat roller and the pressure roller in the fuser unit.
Page 41: Duplex Printing
3.2.5 Duplex printing After the paper exits from the eject roller ASSY 2 with the front of sheet printed, the eject roller ASSY 2 rotates conversely and feeds the paper to the duplex unit, where the paper skew is adjusted. Afterwards, the paper is ejected from the duplex unit to the path through the regist roller and the transfer roller to the transfer block in the drum unit again for process of printing on the back of sheet.
Page 42: Paper Feeding From The Mp Tray
3.2.6 Paper feeding from the MP tray The separation roller MP is connected with the feed roller through the gear in the MP roller holder ASSY. When the separation roller is driven, therefore, the feed roller is also driven. At this time, the paper is drawn out of the MP tray by rotation of the paper feed roller MP contacted with the paper.
Page 43: Toner Cartridge
Toner Cartridge 3.3.1 Methods for Detecting and Counting Toner Life When the machine detects the toner life end, the red Status LED lights on, and the Toner LED lights on at the same time. in the state. The toner life is displayed through the following two ways.
Page 44: Cartridge Life
3.3.2 Cartridge life A new toner cartridge can print approximately 8,000 A4 or Letter size single-sided pages at normal duty (ISO/IEC19752). In the case of low-duty printing, if the number of printed pages are reached the cartridge life, "Replace Toner" is indicated by lighting Toner LED before the toner runs out because the developer roller surface or other toner sealing is worn out due to a rotation of the rollers.
Page 45: New Toner Detection
3.3.3 New toner detection This machine is equipped with the function to detect that the residual quantities of the toner are not enough by examining the degree that the toner in the cartridge blocks the light by the transmission light sensor. This function informs the user’s that the toner cartridge has reached its life.
Page 46 When the new toner detection mechanism detects that the toner cartridge is replaced with a new one, the developing bias voltage is initialized at the same time. The toner used for the printer has a property that print density is light first and gradually darker in the course of usage.
Page 47 <When a toner cartridge in use is inserted after "Replace Toner" is displayed by toner sensor detection > A count value before changed is continuously indicated as a number of the rotation for the develop roller. Irrespective of the amount of toner, printing becomes disabled when the number of the rotation for the develop roller reaches the upper limit.
Page 48: Print
Print 3.4.1 Basic Principle The printing process consists broadly of 5 processes: electrification, exposure, development, transfer and fusing. 1. Charging: The surface of an exposure drum is electrically charged. 2. Exposure: A printed image is formed on the surface of the drum by applying laser beam. 3.
Page 49: Print Process
3.4.2 Print Process (1) Charging The flow of the ion charge is controlled by constant voltage of the grid 850 V to ensure it is distributed evenly on the drum surface. In order to coat toner on the exposure drum, the drum needs to be evenly electrified.
Page 50 (2) Exposure The laser beam radiated from a laser diode inside the laser unit is concentrated into a constant width by a slit in the CO lens cell and then reflected by a polygon mirror rotating at high speed. The evenly charged exposure drum is irradiated with reflected light and exposed. Surface potential is lowered by such exposure and a printed image is formed.
Page 51 (3) Development Toner is attracted to a printed-image area on the exposure drum where surface potential is lowered due to exposure. By controlling developing bias voltage supplied to the develop roller, the amount of toner taken to the drum is adjusted to keep printing density constant. Charging Laser beam 400 V to 315 V...
Page 52 (4) Transfer By applying a minus charge to the transfer roller, the toner adhered to the exposure drum is transferred to paper. Supply roller Toner cartridge Develop roller Exposure drum Toner Transfer roller Fig. 2-19 Memo : • Control of transfer bias The transfer bias applied in the transfer roller is adjusted according to types and sizes of paper so as to keep excellent image quality.
Page 53 (5) Fusing The toner transferred on paper passes between the heat roller and the pressure roller in the fuser unit, being fused by heat and pressure. The thermistor detects surface temperature of the heat roller and turns ON/OFF the halogen heater lamp. The temperature is kept constant. Fuser unit Heat roller Halogen heater...

Page 265 <The difference of the Drum Unit Life and the Drum Counter> The drum unit life is based on the page counter. If the average number of drum rotations is more than the number of drum rotations in non-continuous printing, however, the drum unit life is counted by the number of drum rotations. Since the drum counter printed in Print Settings is an actual page counter after a new drum unit is replaced, the drum unit life may be different from the drum counter.
