    indicates that action is required. The specific action required is shown inside the symbol. General action required. Remove the power plug from the wall outlet. Always ground the copier. 1. Installation Precautions WARNING • Do not use a power supply with a voltage other than that specified. Avoid multiple connections to one outlet: they may cause fire or electric shock.
  • Page 7: Specifications 1

    • Always handle the machine by the correct locations when moving it..• Always use anti-toppling and locking devices on copiers so equipped. Failure to do this may cause the copier to move unexpectedly or topple, leading to injury................•...
  • Page 8 • Check that the power cable covering is free of damage. Check that the power plug is dust-free. If it is dirty, clean it to remove the risk of fire or electric shock..................• Never attempt to disassemble the optical unit in machines using lasers. Leaking laser light may damage eyesight.
  • Page 9 • After maintenance, always check that all the parts, screws, connectors and wires that were removed, have been refitted correctly. Special attention should be paid to any forgotten connector, trapped wire and missing screws..................• Check that all the caution labels that should be present on the machine according to the instruction handbook are clean and not peeling.

  • Page 45 2A3/4 Image printing The image data scanned by the CCD PCB (CCDPCB) is processed on the main PCB (MPCB) and transmitted as image printing data to the laser scanner unit (LSU). By repeatedly turning the laser on and off, the laser scanner unit forms a latent image on the drum surface.

  • Page 54 2A3/4 Correcting toner feed start level The toner feed start level is corrected based on the absolute humidity and the drive time so that toner density becomes proper depending on the change of the humidity and the drive time. • Correction based on the absolute humidity Correction at the toner feed start level (V) 0.74...
  • Page 55 2A3/4 Computing the absolute humidity The external humidity sensor (EHUMSENS) and external temperature thermistor (ETTH) are located on the humidity sensor PCB (HUMPCB). The external humidity sensor (EHUMSENS) converts the relative humidity detected by the humidity sensing element into a voltage and sends it to the engine PCB (EPCB). The main PCB (MPCB)computes the absolute humidity based on this EHUMSENS signal and the temperature (ETTH signal) detected by the external temperature thermistor (ETTH).
  • Page 56 2A3/4 • Correction based on the total drive motor time The toner feed start level is also corrected based on the total time the drive motor (DM) has been on from execution of maintenance item U130, so that the toner sensor output is regulated properly.
  • Page 57 2A3/4 Toner level detection The toner level in the toner main hopper is monitored by the toner level detection sensor (TLDS). It converts the presence or absence of toner in the toner main hopper into a voltage and sends it to the main PCB (MPCB), which triggers a message to request the toner cartridge to be replaced before the recycled toner ratio in the toner main hopper reaches a significant level.
  • Page 58 2A3/4 Toner hopper lockup detection The amount of recycled toner in the toner main hopper is monitored by the toner hopper lockup sensor (TLS). It converts the presence or absence of toner in the toner main hopper into a voltage and sends it to the main PCB, which prevents toner main hopper lockup as the amount of the recycled toner in the hopper increases.

The switchback feedshift solenoid (SBFSSOL) then turns off, allowing the switchback feedshift guide to return to the original position by which the path of the original is switched back to the original conveying section.
  • Page 86 2A3/4 (11-3) Original conveying section The original conveying section consists of the parts shown in Figure 1-3-53. Synchronized with the copier scanning operation, the original is conveyed across the slit glass and ejected when scanning is complete. In the double-sided original mode, the eject feedshift solenoid (EFSSOL) turns on, moving the eject feedshift guide to switch the path of the original.
