Work Precautions
Inspection
If you discover any defects or problems during an inspection, fix the problems or if necessary take steps such as replacing a part.

Removal
Check the problem area. At the same time, examine the cause of the problem and determine whether the part needs to be removed or disassembled. Next proceed according to the procedures presented in the Technical Manual. In cases where, for example, it is necessary to disassemble areas with large numbers of parts, parts which are similar to each other, or parts which are the same on the left and right, sort the parts so that you do not mix them up during reassembly. (1) Carefully sort the removed parts. (2) Distinguish between parts which are being replaced and those which will be reused. (3) When replacing screws, etc., be sure to use the specified sizes.

Assembly and Installation


Unless specified otherwise, perform the removal procedures in reverse during assembly and installation. In cases where protrusions or holes are provided to assist in positioning parts, use them for accurate positioning and securing. (Protrusions and holes for positioning parts Half pierce section)

Tools
Using tools other than those specified can lead to injury or damage screws and parts. Have all the tools necessary for the work available. <Standard Tool list> Type Tip size No. 2 No. 2 No. 2 No. 1 6 mm 3 mm 1.8 mm 8 mm 7 mm 2.5 mm 5 mm 5.5 mm 8 mm 10 mm Monkey 7 mm 13 mm Shaft length, etc. (250 mm) (100 mm-150 mm) (stubby type) (75 mm-100 mm) (100 mm-150 mm) (100 mm-150 mm) (precision type) (100 mm-150 mm) (100 mm-150 mm) Type Steel scale Feeler gauge Radial cutting pliers Pliers Nipper Small flashlight Multimeter Soldering iron File 20 W-30 W Flat, round Remarks 150 mm

CHAPTER 1. MAINTENANCE WORK PRECAUTIONS

Electrical system work


After removing wire bundles, fasten them with wire bundle bands (bar lock ties) so that they will not sag. When installing parts, be careful to avoid pinching or damaging the wire bundles. If a fuse blows, always replace it with one with the specified capacity. Using a fuse with a larger capacity can not only damage parts, but may cause fires. Be careful not to drop image scanners, thermal print heads, and other sensors as they can be easily damaged.

Sensor types
Photo-electric sensors may be broadly divided into the following four types: interrupt types (U-shaped), actuator types, reflective types, and transmittive types. Magnetic sensors use Hall ICs, which react to the magnetic force in magnets. Always turn off the power before plugging or unplugging sensor connectors.

Switch types
Microswitches may be divided between normally open (NO) types and normally closed (NC) types. With an NO connection, an internal contact is connected when the switch actuator is pressed. With an NC connection, an internal contact is disconnected when the switch actuator is pressed. Magnetic lead switches are switches in which an internal contact is connected in reaction to the magnetic force of a magnet.

CHAPTER 4. FIRST PAPER FEED SECTION PAPER FEED TRAY MECHANISM

Mechanism
1. Paper Feed Tray Mechanism
1) Horizontal positioning (horizontal print positioning) of the paper feed tray
The Paper feed tray [A] can be moved 10 mm left or right by turning the Adjustment dial [B] manually (for paper widths up to 274 mm, and 5 mm for paper widths between 275 mm and 290 mm).

2) Print paper size detection


The Paper feed tray [A] uses the Paper width potentiometer [D] and Paper size detection sensor [C] to determine the size of the paper loaded in the Paper feed tray [A]. The Paper width potentiometer [D] checks the paper width, and the Paper size detection sensor [C] determines the paper length (portrait or landscape orientation).

CHAPTER 4. FIRST PAPER FEED SECTION PAPER FEED TRAY ELEVATION MECHANISM

2. Paper Feed Tray Elevation Mechanism


The presence of paper loaded in the Paper feed tray [A] is detected by the Paper detection sensor [B]. When light is received at the Paper detection sensor [B] (paper present), pressing the START key activates the Elevator motor [E] and raises the Paper feed tray [A] until the Scraper assembly [C] blocks the light beam of the Upper limit sensor [D]. During printing, the Elevator motor [E] is activated until the light to the upper limit sensor [D] is blocked. When there is no longer paper in the Paper feed tray [A] and light is not received by the Paper detection sensor [B], the Elevator motor [E] activates and lowers the Paper feed tray [A] until the light beam of the Lower limit sensor [F] is blocked. If the Feed tray descent button [G] is pressed while in print standby mode, the Elevator motor [E] activates and lowers the Paper feed tray [A] until either the light beam of the Lower limit sensor [F] is blocked or the Feed tray descent button [G] is pressed once again. The Elevator motor [E] does not operate even if the Feed tray descent button [G] is pressed while the print drum is removed.

Paper Feed Tray Safety Mechanism


The Paper feed tray lower safety switch [C] ensures safety while the paper feed tray is being raised or lowered or is stationary. If the Safety switch actuator plate [B] is depressed, the Paper feed tray lower safety switch [C] trips. An error in the paper feed tray is then assumed, and the machine stops.

CHAPTER 4. FIRST PAPER FEED SECTION FIRST PAPER FEED DRIVE MECHANISM

4.

First Paper Feed Drive Mechanism


When the printing operation commences, the Main motor [A] activates to rotate the print drum via the Main belt [C]. When the Main motor [A] is running, the Paper feed timing belt [D] continuously drives the pulley on the Paper feed clutch [E]. When the print drum rotates through a preset angle (the angle set for paper feed clutch activation by test mode No. 481) from position A, the Paper feed clutch [E] is activated. The Scraper roller [G] and Pickup roller [H] rotate to feed the paper inside the machine from the paper feed tray. The paper fed inside the machine blocks the light beam between Paper sensors [I] and [L]. The print drum then rotates through a preset angle (the angle set for paper feed clutch deactivation angle adjustment by test mode Nos. 482 to 485), and the Paper feed clutch [E] is deactivated, completing the first stage paper feed. The leading edge of the paper rests against the Guide roller [J] and Timing roller [M] and stops with the paper bulging. If the print drum rotates as far as the first paper feed jam detection angle after the Paper feed clutch [E] has been activated, Paper sensors [I] and [L] check to detect the presence or absence of paper. After the paper has been fed to the second paper feed stage, a one-way clutch acts on the Scraper roller [G] and Pickup roller [H] so that they spin, to prevent the first paper feed area from applying brake on the paper.

CHAPTER 4. FIRST PAPER FEED SECTION PAPER STRIP MECHANISM

5.

Paper Strip Mechanism


The paper loaded in the paper feed tray is fed in between the Pickup roller [A] and Stripper pad [B] by the rotating scraper roller. The paper is then separated by the Pickup roller [A] and Stripper pad [B] to ensure that only the uppermost sheet is sent into the machine. The Stripper pad [B] is pressed against the Pickup roller [A] by the force of the Stripper spring [C], and the resistance applied to the paper fed in separates the sheet. The stripper-pad angle and stripping pressure can be adjusted by the user using the Stripper pad angle adjust knob [D] and Stripper pressure adjust knob[E].

CHAPTER 4. FIRST PAPER FEED SECTION PAPER FEED PRESSURE ADJUST LEVER

6.

Paper Feed Pressure Adjust Lever


The Paper feed pressure adjust lever [A] is located on the left-hand side of the scraper unit, and moving this to the left or right switches the scraper-roller paper-feed pressure (scraper pressure) from NORMAL (weak) and CARD (strong). Moving the pressure adjust lever to the right increases the paper-feed pressure (scraper pressure).

CHAPTER 5. SECOND PAPER FEED SECTION SECOND PAPER FEED MECHANISM

Mechanism
1. Second Paper Feed Mechanism
When the main motor operates during printing, the Main cam [A] rotates clockwise. The Main cam [A] rotation moves the Timing gear [C] via the Cam follower arm [B], and this rotates the Timing cam [D]. The Timing cam [D] contains a one-way clutch, so that when it rotates counter-clockwise, the rotation is transferred to the Timing roller [G], but when it rotates clockwise, the rotation is not transferred. The Load spring [H] continuously applies a load to the Timing roller [G] to ensure that the Timing roller [G] stops immediately when it is not rotated. The Timing roller [G] rotation also rotates the Guide roller [F] clockwise. As the Timing cam [D] rotates, the protrusion pushes against the Timing lever [E] and raises the Guide roller [F]. During printing, the Guide roller [F] moves down and contacts the Timing roller [G] during the first paper feed operation, and then rises once the Timing roller [G] stops rotating.

First paper feed start When the first paper feed starts and the paper is fed in, the Timing gear [E] is rotated in the direction, indicated by arrow mark, by the Main cam [A]. This rotates the Timing cam [B], which lowers the Timing lever [C] to lower the Guide roller [D].

Second paper feed start When the first paper feed ends, the Timing gear [E] is rotated by the Main cam [A] in the direction indicated by the arrow mark. This rotates the Timing cam [B] and also causes the timing roller [D] to rotate, feeding the paper. (The Guide roller [D] rotates on contact with the Timing roller [F].)

Vertical Print Positioning Mechanism


Pressing the < > or < > print position keys on the panel activates the Print positioning pulse motor [A], which rotates the Print positioning adjuster cam [B] to move the Print positioning plate assy [C]. The Print positioning plate assy [C] motion moves the Print positioning lever assy [E], changing the timing with the main cam. The second paper feed (timing roller rotation start) timing is thus changed, changing the vertical printing position. The Vertical centering sensor [D] checks the centering of the print positioning.

CHAPTER 6. PRESS SECTION PRESS MECHANISM

Mechanism
1. Press Mechanism
The main motor activates when printing begins, and the Pressure solenoid [F] activates once the print drum rotates through 40. As the clamp plate base on the print drum approaches the pressure roller, the protrusion on the Pressure cam [A] pushes against Pressure lever A [B] to rotate it clockwise. This rotary motion causes Pressure lever A [B] to push against Pressure lever B [C], and the Solenoid lever [G] separates from Pressure lever B [C] and descends. Once the protrusion on the Pressure cam [A] has passed, pressure lever A [B] rotates counter-clockwise. Likewise, Pressure lever B [C] is pulled by the tension of the Pressure spring [D] and Second pressure spring [E], and rotates in unison with Pressure lever A [B]. The Pressure shaft [H] fixed to Pressure lever B [C] therefore also rotates counter-clockwise. The pressure roller therefore rises and is pressed against the print drum. During printing, the Pressure cam [A] pushes against Pressure lever A [B] and lowers the pressure roller to prevent the pressure roller from touching the print drum clamp plate base. The Pressure solenoid [F] remains activated. After printing is complete, the Pressure solenoid [F] is deactivated when the print drum reaches the 135 position.

CHAPTER 6. PRESS SECTION PRESSURE CONTROL MECHANISM

2.

Pressure Control Mechanism


Pressing the < > or < > print density keys on the panel activates the Pressure control motor [A] and moves the Print pressure gear assy [D]. The movement of the Print pressure gear assy [D] varies the tension of the second pressure spring [B]. This alters the pressure acting on Pressure lever B [C], and varies the print density by varying the pressure of the pressure roller against the print drum. The pressure control motor is not actually activated until the START key is pressed. The printing pressure will vary depending on the printing speed and print density settings, the ink color, the length of time the print drum remains standing, and the print drums internal temperature. The Print pressure control sensor [E] checks the standard printing pressure position.

Checking and adjustment procedure
(1) Make a confidential master, and then bring the print drum to position A. (2) Remove the rear cover. (3) Remove the screws and pull forward the filter PCB unit. (4) Remove the Second pressure spring, push up the Pressure lever B [A], and disengage it from the Solenoid lever [D]. (5) Attach the Second pressure spring and check that the gap between Pressure lever A [B] and Pressure lever B [A] is between 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm. (See detailed figure 2.) (6) If the gap in step (5) is outside the specifications, remove the Second pressure spring and loosen the two set screws on Pressure lever B [A]. Insert a 3 mm Allen wrench [C] between Pressure lever A [B] and Pressure lever B [A] (see detailed figure 1), rotate the Pressure shaft [E] fully counter-clockwise, and then tighten the set screws on Pressure lever B [A] with the pressure roller pressing hard against the print drum. The Pressure lever B [A] should be pushed all the way back against the machine, when tightening the set screws. (7) Check as in step (5), and if the gap is still outside the specifications, repeat step (6). If the gap is within the specifications, push Pressure lever B [A] upwards, lock with the Solenoid lever [D], and attach the Second pressure spring. Symptoms If the gap is too small, the pressure will be too weak, and the printing density may become too light. If the gap is too large, there will not be sufficient space between the Pressure roller and the Clamp plate base on the print drum, and they may touch, damaging the Clamp plate base.

CHAPTER 7. PAPER EJECTION SYSTEM PAPER EJECTION MECHANISM

Mechanism
1. Paper Ejection Mechanism
Printed paper is first detached from the print drum by the Separator [B] and two Separation fans [F]. It is then sent to the paper receiving tray by the Transfer belts [E]. The transfer belts [E] are driven by the Paper ejection motor [C]. Two Suction fans [D] are located below the Transfer belts [E], and these suck the paper onto the transfer belts [E]. The Paper receiving sensor [A] checks whether the paper is ejected correctly. The Encoder sensor [G] checks the rotation of the Encoder sensor disc [H] to ensure that the transfer belt speed is slightly faster than the corresponding print drum rotation speed and ensure smooth paper ejection from the print drum.

Paper Separator Mechanism


The Separator [A] is close to the print drum when the paper is being detached from the print drum. As the print drum rotates and the clamp plate base approaches the Separator [A], the Separator arm assy [G] is pushed by the Pressure cam [F] on the Print drum pulley. This also pushes the Separator lever [H], and the Separation shaft [B] rotates, causing the Separator [A] to move away from the print drum. Likewise, when pulling out the print drum, the Release lever [D] is returned by the Release lever spring [E]. And when the Release arm [C] is pressed, the Separation shaft [B] rotates, causing the Separator [A] to move away from the print drum.

Paper Ejection Wing Mechanism


The left- and right-hand ejection wings on the Suction unit can be set manually to the raised [B] or lowered [C] positions to suit the paper ejection requirements. Normally, the ejection wings are raised [B] for regular paper and lowered [C] for cards. The ejection wings are raised and lowered by moving the Wing position knob [D] located below the lefthand Ejection wing [A] up or down. The Wing position knob [D] has a protruding tab [E] inside, which engages with the catch [F] on the lefthand Ejection wing [A]. Moving the Wing position knob [D] up and down therefore moves the Ejection wings up and down.

CHAPTER 7. PAPER EJECTION SYSTEM SEPARATOR MOUNTING POSITION

Adjustment
1. Separator Mounting Position
(1) Using test chart No.15, create a master and make prints. Check that the paper does not jam on the drum and that there is no black line through the center of the paper caused by the Separator touching the print drum. The Separator position is OK if there is no paper jamming on the print drum with 5 mm white margin on the top of the prints. (2) If the paper sticks to the print drum or black line appears on the printed sheet, stop the print drum at position-A, switch off the power, remove the rear cover, and then remove the following component. Separation fan unit (3) Insert a screwdriver through the insertion point [B] at the bottom left of Pressure lever A [A], and loosen the retaining screw [D] on the Separator positioning plate[C]. (4) Insert a penlight inside the machine, on top of the suction unit, and inspect the tip of the Separator [E] through the square opening in the machine side frame located just above Pressure lever A [A]. (5) Move the Separator positioning plate [C] and tighten the separator positioning plate retaining screw [D] so that the gap between the Separator [E] tip and the Print drum surface [F] is 1.0 mm to 1.5 mm. Symptoms If the tip of the Separator [E] touches the Print drum surface [F], it will scratch the surface of the master, causing a black line on the printed sheets. Conversely, if the gap is too wide, the paper will not be properly released from the print drum, and sticks onto the print drum.

CHAPTER 8. PRINT DRUM SECTION MASTER ON DRUM (IN PRINTING) CHECK MECHANISM

Mechanism
1. Master on Drum (in Printing) Check Mechanism
This mechanism checks whether there is a master on the print drum when printing begins. The print drum begins to rotate when the START key is pressed, and when the print drum reaches the 75 position, the Master sensor [B] checks whether there is a master [C] on the print drum. The information checked by the Master sensor [B] is stored until either the print drum is pulled out or the power is switched off. Subsequent printing therefore starts immediately after the START key is pressed. If light is not reflected back to the Master sensor [B] (implying that the master is absent) when the print drum reaches the 75 position at the start of the printing, it is assumed that there is no master on the print drum.

CHAPTER 8. PRINT DRUM SECTION INKING MECHANISM

5.

Inking Mechanism
When the main motor is operating and the print drum is rotating, if the ink bead moves away from the Ink sensor [D], the inking motor activates to pump in the ink from the ink cartridge. The ink pumped is fed via the hose onto the squeegee roller [E] from the holes in the Ink distributor [F]. The inking motor is switched off when the ink reaches the Ink sensor [D]. The ink deposited on the squeegee roller [E] is made into ink bead between the Squeegee roller [E] and Doctor roller [A]. The Driven shaft is rotated to build a smooth ink bead. The ink is transferred onto the print drum from Squeegee roller [E] via a small gap between the Squeegee roller [E] and Doctor roller [A]. The Overflow sensor [C] checks to prevent ink from overflowing inside the print drum.

[Checking after Adjustment] Run an actual print after the adjustment to check the left and right print density balance. If the left and right print density balance is incorrect, the squeegee pressure must be readjusted. [Symptoms] Incorrect left and right squeegee pressure causes unbalanced print density. If the squeegee pressure is too high (gap too small), more ink than is needed will be transferred onto the print drum and may cause ink leakage. If the squeegee pressure is too low (gap too large), the print density will be reduced, and excess load will be applied on the print drum and may shorten the life of the drum body.

CHAPTER 10. MASTER REMOVAL SECTION MASTER REMOVAL MECHANISM

Mechanism
1. Master Removal Mechanism
Masters on the print drum are removed as follows. (1) At the start of master removal, the Master sensor [A] checks whether the master to be removed on the print drum actually exists. (2) The clamp plate master removal operation is performed with the print drum at position A to release the leading edge of the master from the clamp plate. (3) The Master removal hook [B] then detaches the master from the print drum as the drum is rotated. (4) The removed master is fed into the Master compression plate [C]. (5) The removed master is then compressed, and disposed of in the Master disposal box [D].

CHAPTER 10. MASTER REMOVAL SECTION MASTER ON THE DRUM (BEFORE MASTER REMOVAL) CHECK MECHANISM

2.

Master on the Drum (before Master Removal) Check Mechanism


When creating confidential or normal masters, the print drum moves to position A, and with the print drum at the 75 position, the Master sensor [A] checks whether or not there is a master [B] on the drum. (The check operation is not performed if information that a master is present has already been stored in the machines memory.) The drum rotation angle for the check can be adjusted using test mode No. 580. If the light from the Master sensor [B] is reflected back, (master present), the master removal sensor checks whether the master is sent to the master disposal box or not during the master removal.

CHAPTER 10. MASTER REMOVAL SECTION REMOVED MASTER VERTICAL TRANSPORT MECHANISM

3.

Removed Master Vertical Transport Mechanism


When the clamp unit is operated to release the leading edge of the master from the clamp plate, the Master removal motor [A] activates, rotating the Vertical transport rollers [B, C, D, E, F]. The main motor also rotates the print drum at the same time. The master is fed between the rollers and pushed into the Master compression plate [H]. The master is guided here by the Master removal hook [G] and G belt [J]. The main motor and Master removal motor [A] stop once the print drum has rotated to position-A. (The time at which the master removal motor stops can be adjusted using test mode No. 382.) When the print drum reaches the 70 and 90 positions, the Master removal sensor [I] checks whether the master is being fed correctly to the master disposal box. (These drum angles can be adjusted using test modes No. 380 and 381.) The master removal hook is normally located at a fixed position close to the print drum, but shifts away from the drum when the drum is pulled out. The print drum rotation speed during master removal can be adjusted using test mode No. 387.

CHAPTER 10. MASTER REMOVAL SECTION DISPOSED MASTER COMPRESSION MECHANISM

4.

Disposed Master Compression Mechanism


1) Initializing If the light path on the Master compression sensor [B] is open when the power is switched ON or when everything is reset, the master compression motor operates in the compression direction, and when the light path to the master compression sensor is blocked, it operates in reverse until the light path is open again. If the light path to the Master compression sensor [B] is blocked when the power is switched ON or when everything is reset, the master compression motor operates in the return direction until the light path is open again. If the light path to the Master compression sensor [B] is blocked when starting master removal, the master compression motor operates in the return direction until the light path is open. (The initializing operation is not performed if the light path to the master compression sensor is open when starting master removal.) 2) Master compression Once the removed master vertical transport operation is complete, the master compression motor operates in the compression direction to lower the Master compression plate [A]. The light path to the master compression sensor is briefly blocked by the Master compression sensor plate [C]. When the light path to the master compression sensor is subsequently opened again, the master compression motor stops (the stop time can be adjusted using test mode No. 384), and then operates in the return direction to return the master compression plate to its home position. 3) Ejection of removed master The master removed by the vertical transport operation is pushed inside the Master compression plate [A]. Compression is performed by the master removal motor rotating the Master compression plate [A] on the Pivot shaft [D]. The Piston shaft link [E] also rotates, but it rotates on the Piston shaft [F] rather than on the Pivot shaft [D]. This causes the Piston block [G] to move in the direction in which the master ejects out.

CHAPTER 10. MASTER REMOVAL SECTION DISPOSED MASTER COMPRESSION MECHANISM


4) Disposed-master-full detection The removed-master-full detection is performed using the following two mechanisms, and a masterfull indication is displayed by either. (1) The number of masters removed after resetting following the previous master-full indication is counted, and the master disposal box is determined as full when the count reaches the preset value. * The preset master-full count can be set using test mode No. 386. The master count is not incremented if a master removal error occurs or if the master to be removed is not detected on the print drum. (2) Mechanism for mechanically determining that the master disposal box is full (see below.)

Master compression sensor Disposal box full sensor Master compression sensor plate At the start of compression, the light paths to the master compression sensor and disposal box full sensors are open. Master compression plate

Pivot shaft

When the master compression motor operates to start master compression, the master compression sensor is immediately blocked by the master compression sensor plate. As the operation continues, the disposal box full sensor is briefly blocked by the master compression plate, but is then opened.

Once the master inside the master disposal box has been sufficiently compressed, the master compression plate stops rotating, but the master compression sensor plate continues to rotate. (The master compression plate is mounted to the pivot shaft via a spring, whereas the master compression sensor plate is mounted directly to the pivot shaft.)

Once the light beam of the master compression sensor is blocked by the master compression sensor plate, the compression operation stops, and the master compression plate returns to the home position.

10 6 RN (Version 1.0)

CHAPTER 10. MASTER REMOVAL SECTION DISPOSED MASTER COMPRESSION MECHANISM

When the master disposal box becomes full, the master compression plate stops rotating before the removed-master-full sensor is blocked.

When the light path to the master compression sensor is open and the removed-master-full sensor is not blocked, the master-disposal-box-full indication is displayed.

Disposal Box Safety Switch


The master disposal box safety switch checks whether the master disposal box and master disposal gate housing are properly positioned. If the master disposal gate housing is locked and correctly set, the bracket on the master disposal gate housing is positioned close to the safety switch. When the master disposal box is mounted, the safety switch unit moves back, and the safety switch is pushed against the master disposal gate housing. The master disposal box full indication is reset if the master disposal box safety switch is released (the master disposal box removed) for more than 5 seconds. The master disposal box count memory is also reset to zero.

Original Scanning Mechanism


The FB read pulse motor [J] drives the front and rear Wire spool pulleys [G] via the 2-stage reduction pulleys linked by the Timing belts [H], [I]. The front and rear wire spool pulleys are configured symmetrically. The wire [S] has one end secured to the frame via Coil spring [A], and is wound onto Sliding pulley No. 2 [E] mounted on the Mirror carriage [B]. It is wound approximately 6.5 times around the rear wire spool pulley [G] via the Fixed pulley [F] secured to the frame. It is then attached to the Lamp carriage [C] and then secured to the frame via Sliding pulley No. 1 [D] mounted on the Mirror carriage [B]. The Lamp carriage [C] carries two original illumination Lamps [K] (and lamp inverters) and Mirror No. 1 [M], and the mirror carriage carries the two mirrors [N], [O]. The mechanism uses a full/half-rate mirror scanning system, in which the mirror carriage moves 1/2 L mm as the lamp carriage moves L mm in the same direction. This means that when the FB read pulse motor [J] is activated, the original surface can be scanned while maintaining a constant distance between the original and the center of the lens mounted on the frame. The original on the scanner table illuminated by the lamp is reflected via mirrors No. 1, 2, and 3, and is then focused onto the CCD [R] by the lens [Q] in the lens assy [P].

Initialization is performed in the following situations to bring the flat bed unit to standby mode. When power is switched on When everything has been reset

Initialization operation
The Image scanner ADF shading sensor [A] is checked, and if it is OFF (light path open), the Flat-bed read pulse motor [B] is activated in the return direction until the light path is blocked, and moves the Lamp carriage [C] towards the left in the photograph. Once the image scanner ADF shading sensor is ON (blocked), it is moved a further 3 mm before the operation ends. (This position is the standby position.) The actuator plate of the image scanner ADF shading sensor is fixed to the lamp carriage. No movement is made when the image scanner ADF shading sensor is ON (blocked).

Stage Glass Original Detection System


The Flat bed original detection sensor [B] checks whether an original is placed on the Stage glass [A]. The Flat bed original detection sensor [B] performs its check as soon as the Stage cover [C] is closed halfway, blocking the light path to the Stage cover sensor [D]. If the light path to the Flat bed original detection sensor [B] is open (original present), the Master-Making/ Print indication on the panel switches to Master-Making, and the thermal pressure motor is activated to lower the thermal head until the TPH pressure sensor switches ON. At the same time, the lamp illuminates until the shading compensation is made (automatic base control operation is also performed if original scanning intensity is set to Auto), and the lamp carriage returns to the scanning start standby position and waits. If START key is not pressed within 60 seconds, the lamp turns off and the lamp carriage returns to the standby position.

This operation is performed after the shading compensation for line mode only when the original scanning density is set to Auto. (It is not performed in photo, line/photo, dot, and book modes.) When the START key is pressed, the lamp illuminates, and the flat bed read pulse motor activates in the scanning direction. It moves 41 mm after the image scanner ADF shading sensor switches from ON to OFF, and then pauses for a set period. Shading compensation is then performed while it moves 8 mm, and it then moves 15 mm (9 mm from the leading edge of the original) before the image sensor scans the surface density of the original. After this, the lamp carriage moves approximately 2.6 mm twice and scans the surface density of the original. (Total 3 times) The flat bed read pulse motor then operates in reverse (in the return direction) to return the lamp carriage to the scanning start standby position, and proceeds to FB scanning operation 1.

FB Original Scanning Mechanism


This scanning operation describes the following situations. One is in which the ABC (Auto Base Control) is not performed. The other is when the START key is pressed within 60 seconds of placing the original on the stage glass (START from FB original scanning operation 1), and when the START key is pressed after 60 seconds. If the START key is pressed after 60 seconds have elapsed, the lamp [B] illuminates, and the Flat bed read pulse motor [A] activates in the feed direction. The Lamp carriage [C] moves to the shading compensation position, and shading compensation is performed. (See the previous section for the case in which line mode is selected with original scanning density set at Auto, i.e. with ABC.) It then moves a preset distance in the scanning direction (to the right) from the scanning start standby position, and the write pulse motor activates. It then moves a further preset distance, switching ON the read/write signal and initiating scan of the original. (The master making process starts at the same time.) Once the master making for the size of the original is made, the read/write signal is switched OFF, and scanning ends. (The master making process also ends at the same time.) The Flat bed read pulse motor [A] moves the lamp carriage a further 3 mm in the scanning direction before stopping. The Lamp [B] turns off, and the scanning operation is complete. The Lamp carriage [C] then returns to the standby position. (Flat bed initialization operation)

CHAPTER 12. ADF SCANNING SECTION ADF ORIGINAL SET MECHANISM

Mechanism
1. ADF Original Set Mechanism
When the original is set along the original guide fence and pushed up against the Original stopper gate [C], the ADF original detection sensor [A] is activated (light path open) and the Master/Print indicator on the panel switches to Master. The thermal pressure motor operates to lower the thermal head until the TPH pressure sensor is activated. After a preset interval, the ADF read pulse motor [O] reverses to lower the Pickup roller [B] in the direction shown by the arrows and withdraw the Original stopper gate [C] upwards. (The one-way clutch incorporated between the Registration roller gear [N] and registration roller shaft prevents the Registration roller [G] from rotating here.) Once the Pickup roller [B] descends to push against the original, the Pickup roller [B] and Original stripper roller [D] rotate in the original transport direction, and a single original is fed forward by the action of the Original stripper roller [D] and Original stripper pad [E]. This activates the ADF original registration sensor [F] (light path blocked) and the edge of the original is stopped by the Stationary registration roller [G]. Once a preset interval has elapsed from when the ADF original registration sensor [F] was activated, the ADF read pulse motor [O] operates in the forward direction. This raises the Pickup roller [B] and at the same time rotating the Registration roller [G], Original read roller [I], and Original ejection roller (top) [J], which are all linked by the Timing belt [M], in the feed direction. The original stops briefly after it has been moved 100 mm from the original set position.

ADF Original Scanning Mechanism (with Automatic Base Control)


(This operation only occurs when the original scanning density is set to Auto.) Once the ADF original setting operation is complete, pressing the START key illuminates the lamp. The Flat bed read pulse motor is activated immediately, moving the Lamp carriage in the feed direction to the shading position. Shading adjustment is performed before moving back in the return direction and stopping at the ABC scanning position (3 + b) mm in front of the normal ADF scanning position. The ADF read pulse motor meanwhile operates in the forward direction, rotating the Registration roller, Master lead roller, and Original ejection roller (top) in the feed direction. The original is fed forward 26.9 mm and stops after the Original IN sensor activates (light path blocked), and the intensity of the original background color is scanned by the image sensor in this position. The FB read pulse motor then moves the Lamp carriage back (3 + b) mm in the return direction. (Normal ADF original scanning position) The ADF read pulse motor immediately operates in the forward direction, and at the same time, the read/ write signal activates, causing scanning of the original to start. The read/write signal is deactivated a preset interval after the Original IN sensor is deactivated (light path open) when the original is moved away (or immediately if the Write pulse motor has rotated the equivalent of the paper size as previously specified by the user settings). The ADF read pulse motor then operates at high speed as soon as scanning is complete. Once the original is transported a preset distance after the Original OUT sensor deactivates, the ADF read pulse motor stops and the ADF original scanning operation is complete.

The Automatic Base Control function does not operate in Photo, Line/Photo, or Dot modes. 12 6 RN (Version 1.0)

ADF Original Scanning Mechanism


Once the ADF original setting operation is complete, pressing the START key illuminates the lamp. The Flat bed read pulse motor immediately activates, moving the Lamp carriage in the feed direction to the shading position. Shading adjustment is performed before moving back in the return direction and stopping at the normal ADF scanning position. The ADF read pulse motor [M] meanwhile operates in the forward direction, rotating the Registration roller [A], Original read roller [C], and Original ejection roller (top) [J] in the feed direction. The original is fed forward 29.9 mm after the Original IN sensor [E] activates (light path blocked), activating the read/write signal and initiating a scan of the original. (The pickup roller returns to the standby position.) The read/write signal is deactivated a preset interval after the Original IN sensor [E] is deactivated (light path open) when the original is moved away (or immediately if the Write pulse motor has rotated the equivalent of the paper size as previously specified in the user settings). The ADF read pulse motor [M] then operates at high speed as soon as scanning is complete. Once the original is transported a preset distance after the Original OUT sensor [I] deactivates, the ADF read pulse motor [M] stops. This completes the ADF original scanning operation.

CHAPTER 13. MASTER MAKING SECTION MASTER MAKING & MASTER LOADING

Mechanism
1. Master making & master loading
The master making & master loading mechanism is made up of the following components. 1) Scanner Table Set Detection Mechanism The Flat bed set switch [A] confirms that the original is positioned on the scanner table. The Master loading unit sensor [B] confirms that the master loading unit is set. The Master end sensor [C] confirms that master roll has ran out of master. 2) Master Cutting Mechanism The master cutting operation is performed by the Cutter motor [D], and the cutter motor stop position is confirmed by the Cutter home position switch [E]. 3) Thermal Print Head Elevation Mechanism The Thermal print head (TPH) [F] is raised and lowered by the Thermal pressure motor [G], and the position is confirmed by the TPH pressure sensor [H]. 4) Master Making Section Mechanism Master making is performed by lowering the Thermal print head [F] and transporting the master clamped between it and the Write roller [I]. The master is transported by the Write roller, which is driven by the Write pulse motor [J]. Created masters are stored inside the master stocker [K]. 5) Master Loading Mechanism Masters that have been created are fed to the print drum and clamped, and then loaded by rotating the print drum. The master is transported by the Load roller [M], which is driven by the Load pulse motor [L].

Scanner Table Set Detection Mechanism


Scanner table and master loading set detection mechanism The Flat bed set switch [A] confirms that the scanner table is closed. The Flat bed set switch [A] is the interlocking switch for the main motor, and this forces the Main motor, Clamp motor, and TPH power to an emergency stop if the Scanner table is opened while the system is operating. The Master loading unit switch [B] confirms that the Master loading unit is set, and the master setting operation is performed once the Master loading unit is set. Master end detection The end of the master roll is confirmed by the Master end sensor [C] detecting the black end mark attached to the end of the master on the master roll. The Master end sensor [C] checks every 10 ms while the master is being transported, and gives an indication on the panel when the end mark is detected twice in succession.

Master Cutting Mechanism


The master is cut by the upper cutter of the Cutter unit being moved up and down by the Cutter motor [A]. The Cutter motor rotates in a constant direction, and the Cutter home position switch [B] confirms the position of the upper cutter. The Cutter is at the home position when it is not pressing against the Cutter home position switch [B], and if the switch is depressed briefly after the Cutter motor starts, the motor stops when the switch is no longer depressed.

CHAPTER 13. MASTER MAKING SECTION THERMAL PRINT HEAD ELEVATION MECHANISM

4.

Thermal Print Head Elevation Mechanism


Thermal print head elevation When the system is on standby or when winding the master onto the print drum after master making, the Thermal print head is raised from the Write roller. Conversely, for master making and during transport, the Thermal print head is lowered and pressed onto the Write roller. The Thermal print head is raised and lowered by the Pressure release cam [B], which is driven by the Thermal pressure motor [A]. The Pressure release cam [B] is an eccentric cam, which raises and lowers the TPH pivot plate [C] as it rotates. The raised and lowered stop positions for the motor are detected by the TPH pressure sensor [E], which is blocked by the Pressure detection disc [D]. The Sliding plate [F] and Blade link [G] are also moved by the vertical action of the thermal head. Thermal print head raised position In the Thermal print head raised position, the Load roller No. 1 (top) [H] and Load roller (top) [I] also rise. At the same time, the Blade cushion [J] descends, and applies back tension to the master while it is being wound onto the print drum to prevent creases in the master. Thermal print heads lowered position In the Thermal print head lowered position, the Load roller No. 1 (top) [H] and Load roller (top) [I] also descend to allow the master to be transported. At the same time, the Blade cushion [J] rises. Initialization This moves the Thermal print head to the pressure release (raised) position when power is switched on, or when everything is reset. Loading guide plate operation In the clamp plate master release operation at the start of master ejection, the front edge of the Loading guide plate is raised by the Master release bar to prevent it from obstructing the leading edge of the freed master on the drum. In the clamp plate master clamping operation at the start of master loading, only the front edge sheet of the Loading guide plate is raised by the Clamp plate, so as to prevent it from obstructing the master loading operation. During master loading, the master being loaded is back-tensioned by the sponge fitted to the bottom of the front edge sheet of the Loading guide plate.

CHAPTER 13. MASTER MAKING SECTION MASTER POSITIONING MECHANISM

Master Positioning Mechanism


The master positioning operation is performed to bring the master to the Master positioning sensor when opening or closing the Master loading unit or during master making. For master roll replacement (1) Insert the leading edge of the new master roll to the Master stopper gate [A], and close the master loading unit. Closing the Master loading unit raises the Master stopper gate. The Master loading unit switch monitors operations every 10 ms and determines that the Master loading unit is closed when the light path is blocked twice in succession. The master is then checked by the Master detection sensor [B]. (2) The Thermal print head is lowered by the Thermal pressure motor, and the Write pulse motor and Load pulse motor operate to transport the master to the Master positioning sensor [C]. (3) Once the light path to the Master positioning sensor [C] is blocked by the master, the Write pulse motor alone operates in reverse to return the master 2 mm. The motor then stops and the Thermal print head is raised. For master cutting Steps (2) to (3) above are performed following master cutting.

Master Making
The sequence of operations from master making to master mounting is as described below.

(1) At the start of master making, the Thermal print head is lowered to clamp the master between it and the Write roller.

(2) The write pulse motor and Load pulse motor operate to transport the master to the Master positioning sensor, where it waits for scanning system preparations to be completed.

(3) Once master making can be started, the Write pulse motor operates to transport the master to the writing start position before master making commences. The master created is then stored in the master stocker.

(4) Once the master making in step (3) starts, the Load pulse motor operates to transport the leading edge of the master to the clamp plate, where it is clamped.

(5) Once master making is finished, the Thermal print head is raised, and the print drum rotates as the master is wound onto it.

CHAPTER 13. MASTER MAKING SECTION MASTER MAKING


(6) The print drum pauses at the 220 position, where the master is cut.

(7) After the print drum has rotated a further 15, the Master positioning sensor confirms that the master has been cut. Cutting has been performed correctly if the light path to the sensor is blocked (no master). If the light path to the sensor is open, it is determined that an error has occurred. In this case, the cutting operation is repeated, the Master positioning sensor confirms whether the master has been cut after the print drum has rotated a further 15. If it is cut, A03 Cutting error is displayed, and if it is not cut, T13 Cutter motor lock is displayed.

(8) The master setting operation is performed.

CHAPTER 13. MASTER MAKING SECTION THERMAL POWER OF THERMAL PRINT HEAD

Adjustment
1. Thermal power of thermal print head
The thermal power must always be set before making masters after the Thermal print head has been replaced. Procedure (1) Switch off the power to the system. (2) Connect a multimeter across pin 1 (+) and pin 3 (-) of CN108 on the Power supply unit. (3) Run test mode No. 238. (Switch the thermal print head voltage on/off using the START/STOP keys.) (4) Check that the voltage reading on the voltmeter corresponds to the thermal print head resistances shown in the setting table. (5) If different, adjust using VR301 (coarse adjustment) and VR302 (fine adjustment) on the Power supply unit. Precautions During Setting Adjustments must be made after the Thermal print head has been installed. A voltage will not be applied across the Thermal print head unless the Scanner table is positioned and test mode No. 238 is run. Setting table

Master Feeding Adjustments


1) Master cut position adjustment
This adjustment sets the master cutting timing (print drum stop position for cutting). Checks and procedure
(1) Adjust if the tail end of the master mounted on the print drum is either too long or too short. (2) Run test mode No. 284 to adjust. Setting range: -100 to +100 (-10.0 to +10.0) Setting units: 1 (0.1) Default: 0 (0) Increasing the settings increases the length of each master.

2) Master clamp range adjustment


Adjust the master clamp range when it is mounted. Checks and procedure
(1) Make a normal and confidential master, and then check the length of the master protruding from the Clamp magnet plate. If the amount protruding is within 2 mm 2 mm, it is normal. If it is outside this range, adjust as shown below. (2) Run test mode No. 283 and adjust. Setting range: -100 to +100 (-10.0 mm to +10.0 mm) Setting units: 1 (0.1 mm) Default: 0 (0 mm) Increasing the settings increases the amount of protrusion. Clamp magnet plate Master 22 mm

Note: The relative positioning of already-made masters wound onto the print drum will change if the clamp range is adjusted. The master scanning start position must therefore be readjusted, and it must also be confirmed that the Vertical printing position adjustment is correct.

3) Master making image elongation/ shrinkage adjustment


Adjust the Write pulse motor speed for master making. Checks and procedure
(1) Run test mode No. 051 Test print (mesh), and produce an actual print. Printing is correct if the length of three blocks horizontally is the same as that for four blocks vertically. (Check by folding paper and illuminating from behind.) If it is not correct, adjust as shown below. (2) Run test mode No. 287 and adjust. Setting range: -50 to +50 (-5.0% to +5.0%) Setting units: 1 (0.1%) Default: 0 (0%) Increasing the settings elongates the image.

Note: The vertical printing position must be readjusted after adjusting the elongation/shrinkage.

CHAPTER 13. MASTER MAKING SECTION MASTER FEEDING ADJUSTMENTS

4) Write start position adjustment


Adjust the write start position (distance from master positioning sensor ON to read/write signal ON). Adjustment for a leading edge margin of 5 mm assuming that the master clamp range has been correctly adjusted. Checks and procedure
(1) Run test mode No. 050 Test print (check pattern), to confirm that the master clamp range is correctly adjusted. (2) Cover the print drum surface, aligning the leading edge of the paper with the print drum support marks on either side as shown in the diagram, and then transfer the ink to the paper by rubbing from above. The position is correct if the leading edge margin is 5 mm. If it is not correct, adjust as shown below. (3) Run test mode Setting range: Setting units: Default: No. 281 and adjust. -30 to + 50 (-3.0 mm to +5.0 mm) 1 (0.1 mm) 0 (0 mm)
