Page 287: System Requirements
6.1 INTRODUCTION The Priport Controller is an external PostScript® and PCL-5® compatible processor designed to add a computer interface to Priport Digital Duplicators. Since it is separate from the Priport, the designers were able to use high-speed techniques making it one of the fastest add-on processors available. - Page 288 6.3 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE: NOTES: A. DO NOT use the documentation that is packed in the kit, the instructions are incorrect. Discard the complete set of material titled "INTERFACE UNIT - 10 TYPE 1 ..". Use the installation procedure listed below. B.

CAUTION: When the Video Interface Board is attached correctly, the Front Cover Bracket [F] should not touch the Video Interface Board.
- Page 291 15. Attach the bracket of the Interface harness to the installed Studs [H], use M4x8 screws with flat washers. 16. Attach the small connector of the Interface Harness to the Video Interface Board, connector CN101. 17. Re-position the main power cable harness (refer to step 11) and secure with the removed screw.

Attach the DB-25 Female end of a standard PC serial printer cable to the customer designated serial output port on the rear of the computer. Record the choice of COM1 or COM2 because this port name will be required during the configuration process.

Page 298: Ram Upgrade Procedure
6.8 RAM UPGRADE PROCEDURE The RAM in the PCRIP-10 consists of four (4) - 1 Megabyte by 8 (or 9) Single-Inline-Memory-Modules (SIMMs) running at 70 nanoseconds. A SIMM consists of a very small (appr. 3/4" inch by 3 1/2" inches) printed ciruit board (PCB) with 30 contact fingers which plug into sockets on the main board of the PCRIP-10. - Page 299 3. Remove the 3 screws from each side and 2 screws from the backpanel which hold the chassis lid in place. 4. Remove the chassis lid and set it aside. 5. With the chassis oriented with the 2 LED’s facing you, the 4 SIMMs to be replaced are located directly to your right.
- Page 300 11. Gently rotate the top of the SIMM away from you until you see the clips on each end of the socket engage. Check to see if the prongs of the clips are inserted in both of the small holes at each end of the SIMM. When correctly inserted, the SIMM should be firmly seated in the socket.
- Page 301 Next, verify that the newly installed SIMMs are, in fact, 70 ns in speed. As mentioned in the purchase specification above, 80 ns SIMMs do not respond quickly enough to work with the Intel CF processor in the PCRIP-10 and can not be used! Check that all the newly installed SIMMs are 4 Megabyte X 8 (or 9) and that you have not accidently reinstalled one of the 1 Megabyte X 9 SIMMs you removed.

Page 307: Hardware Installation
6.11 HARDWARE INSTALLATION 1. The Controller is connected by cables between both the computer and the Priport. (The computer and Priport are not directly connected to each other.) The inputs to the Priport Controller replicate those of a standard printer, including Parallel, RS-232 Serial and AppleTalk® inputs. Simply remove the cable from the printer and insert it into the appropriately labeled connector on the backpanel of the Controller. - Page 308 6.12 PRIPORT CONTROLLER CONFIGURATION 1. Factory Settings: The Controller comes preset with the following factory defaults: -Input Buffers: Parallel Inputs - 256 Kb Serial Inputs - 4 Kb AppleTalk - Not applicable Page Size: US Letter (8-1/2" x 11") for U.S. and Canada A4 (210mm x 297mm) for International -Mode: PostScript compatible...
- Page 309 If you have the Controller connected to your IBM PC or compatible to an output port labeled LPT2, COM1, or COM2 , or wish to change to PCL-5 mode, or wish to change to any page size other than the default page size listed above , you will need to use this program.
- Page 310 PostScript compatible input, Set PCL-5 compatible input, Enable AppleTalk, Disable AppleTalk, Reset to Factory Config, Print Test File, Print Diagnostic Status Page, Save Configuration Changes. You must use this menu to select PCL-5 mode or to re-select PostScript mode if you have previously selected PCL-5 mode.
- Page 311 The following selections are available in the "File" menu: Print a File, Eject Page, Info About this Program and Quit (Exit) this Program. To print an output file from the hard disk or a diskette as a test of the configuration before saving or exiting the program, you would use the "Print a File"...
- Page 312 If you wish to verify that the page size selection is correct, you can select "Diagnostic Status Page." This file will generate a one page print-out of PostScript font samples as well as a listing of the current Controller settings at the bottom of the page. See Appendix A for an example of this Diagnostic Status Page output.

Page 315: Commonly Asked Questions
6.17 COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS 1.How far can I have the Controller from the computer? The official specification for parallel cables recommends a length not greater than 10 feet (appr. 3 meters), however you can probably use a cable up to 25 feet (appr. 8 meters) without encountering any line communication problems. - Page 316 7. How much RAM memory does the Controller have? It comes standard with 4 megabytes of RAM. 8. What if my file size is over 4 megabytes? Will the Controller be able to process the file? Under most circumstances, the answer is yes, due to a process built into the Controller called "power banding".
- Page 317 13. Will the Controller work on a network? Yes, if the Controller is connected to a host computer. The computer used as a host for the Controller can be the file server, a printer server or any one of the network nodes. Other than the AppleTalk port for Macintosh networks, there is no port on the Controller, at this time, which allows for a connection directly to the network.

Page 318: Troubleshooting
6.18 TROUBLESHOOTING The following are symptoms you might encounter and the appropriate solution for each: 1. There is a quick flash of the ready light. An error condition has been detected in the Priport. First, check for a loose or missing cable between the Controller and the Priport. Next, check the control panel of the Priport for a flashing master jam indicator. - Page 319 If none of the steps above have produced any master making, it is possible that the PostScript file you are trying to print may be corrupted. You can test for actual Postscript output by printing the Diagnostic Status Page through the Configuration Program. If you can not successfully print this page (which is a special PostScript-compatible file), you should contact your local service organization for help.

Page 343: Master Eject Section
1. MASTER EJECT SECTION 1.1 MASTER EJECT ROLLER DRIVE MECHANISM The DC motor located in the rear of the machine will drive the master eject rollers [B] and [E] through the timing belt [C] and gear train [D]. When the master eject solenoid (not shown) is energized, the lower master eject rollers [E] will be pressed against the drum surface to pick up the curled trailing edge of the used master. -
Page 344: Presure Plate Up/Down Mechanism
1.2 PRESURE PLATE UP/DOWN MECHANISM After the used master is transported to the master eject box, the master is compressed by the pressure plate. The pressure plate is driven by an independent dc motor. The pressure plate motor [A] drive is transmitted to the gear [B] through gears, and the pin [C] will move the link [D] downward until the lower pressure plate sensor [E] is actuated. -
Page 345: Optics
2. OPTICS 2.1 OVERALL The CCD [A] which corresponds to a 300 dpi pixel density is used in the VT2200. The light reflected from the original is sent to the CCD through a lens. The CCD changes the reflected light into an analog electrical signal which will then be converted into a 4-bit digital data in the A/D conversion PCB will then convert. -
Page 346: Thermal Head
2.2 THERMAL HEAD (1) Specifications The VT2200 uses a 300 dpi thermal head. Thermal head • Width 256 mm • Number of thermal head elements 3072 dots • Density of thermal head elements 300 dpi (2) Thermal Head Control The PSU applies the thermal head voltage which is preset at the factory to match the individual thermal head characteristics. -
Page 347: Drum
3. DRUM 3.1 DRUM CONNECTION MECHANISM When the drum release lever [A] in front of the machine is raised, the connector [B] is pushed away from the drum by the bracket [C] through the link [D], and is disconnected. The connector will only move horizontally due to the guidance of the shafts [E]. -
Page 348: Paper Delivery
4. PAPER DELIVERY 4.1 EXIT PAWL AIR PUMP MECHANISM The main motor drive is transmitted to the pump gear [A] through gears and a timing belt [B]. The gear [A] will rotate and drive the piston in the air pump [C] back and forth. -
